5. Initial Start-Up Instructions
Brewtus III V (Vibration pump with reservoir)
(See next page if you have the Brewtus III R-Rotary Pump)
After the machine has been removed from the packaging, place it on a level surface.
1. Remove the white protective covering from the all parts of the machine.
2. Remove the reservoir from the top of the machine and rinse it out.
3.
Fill the reservoir with water and place back into the machine. Make sure both
rubber tubes are placed back into the reservoir.
NOTE: Do not use water that
has had all of the minerals removed. Minerals are necessary for the sensors
in the boiler to work properly.
4. Caution: Notice that the water inlet line has a water softener on it. Make
sure that it fills with water and is not floating.
5. Plug the machine into a wall socket that matches the three-pronged plug on the
machine. It is important that the machine is grounded. If you have any questions
regarding this, call us at 888.411.5282 and ask to speak to one of our trained
technicians.
6. Turn on the main power switch and move the lever on the brew group to the “up”
position. The pump will go on and fill both the steam boiler and the brew boiler.
Leave the lever in the up position until there is a steady stream of water coming
out of the brew group. Look into the reservoir and see if the water level is getting
lower. If the water level is not going down, make sure that the water inlet line (the
one with the water softener) is below the water level in the reservoir. If the water
level is still not going down, turn off the machine and call Whole Latte Love at
the number above.
7. Move the lever to the “down” position and let them machine heat up.
8. Always leave the empty portafilter in the brew group so that it will be hot when
filling for the next shot
9. When the water in the reservoir gets low, the machine will turn itself off.
Note: It will take around 18 minutes for both the brewing boiler and steam boiler to
reach operating temperatures. Please see the brewing tips section for information on
how to get the best out of your new Brewtus III.
