risk of damage to the machine
Improper handling of the coffee machine can lead to damage or contamination. the following
instructions absolutely must be complied with:
●
Never press the touch screen using force, strong pressure or pointed objects!
● For water with a carbonate hardness above 5°dKH, install a water filter, as otherwise the coffee
machine can be damaged due to calcification.
●
For insurance law reasons, always ensure that after closing for the day, the main water valve (coffee
machine with mains water supply) is closed and the electrical main switch is switched off or the
mains plug is unplugged.
● All relevant guidelines on low voltage and/or country-specific or local safety regulations and laws
must be observed.
● Do not operate the device if the water supply is blocked. Otherwise, the boilers will not be refilled and
the pump will run dry.
● To prevent water damage in case of hose breakage, Schaerer Ltd. recommend routing the water
supply connection via a water stop valve (at the installation site).
● After extended downtime (e.g. holiday), the coffee machine must be cleaned before it is put back into
operation.
●
Protect the coffee machine from weather (frost, humidity etc.).
● Faults may be remedied by a qualified service technician only.
●
Only use Schaerer Ltd. original spare parts.
● Report any noticeable damage or leaks immediately to an authorised service partner and have any
faulty parts replaced and/or repaired.
●
Never spray the device with water or clean it with a steam cleaner.
● When using caramelised coffee (flavoured coffee), clean the coffee system twice daily.
●
Fill the bean hopper with beans only, the powder container with coffee machine powder only and the
manual inlet with ground coffee only (or cleaning tablets during cleaning).
●
If the coffee machine and/or accessories are transported at temperatures below 10°C, the coffee
machine and/or accessories must be stored for three hours at room temperature before the coffee
machine and/or accessories are connected to the mains and switched on. Failure to observe this
precaution can result in a danger of short-circuit or damage to electrical components.
● Always use the new hose set (drinking water/dirty water hose) provided with the machine. Never use
old hose sets.

instructions absolutely must be complied with:
●
The water must be uncontaminated.
●
Do not connect the machine to pure reverse osmosis water or other aggressive types of water.
●
The carbonate hardness must not exceed 4-6°dKH (German carbonate hardness) or 7-10°fKH
(French carbonate hardness).
●
The total hardness must always be higher than the carbonate hardness.
●
The minimum carbonate hardness is 4°dKH or 7°fKH.
●
Max. chlorine content of 100 mg per litre.
●
pH value between 6.5 – 7 (pH neutral).
Machines with drinking water tank (internal & external)
● Fill the drinking water tank daily with fresh water.
