Conditions
CAUTION!
Risk of machine
damage!
The machine can suffer damage due to bad material and wrong water values.
It is imperative that the following points are complied with:
• The water must be free of contaminants and the chlorine content must not exceed 100 mg
per litre.
• Do not connect the machine to pure reverse osmosis water or other aggressive types of
water.
• The carbonate hardness must not exceed 5 – 6°dKH (German carbonate hardness) or 8
– 10°fKH (French carbonate hardness) and the total hardness value must always be great-
er than the carbonate hardness.
• The minimum carbonate hardness is 4°dKH or 7°fKH. The pH value must be between 6.5
and 7
• Always use the new hose set (fresh water/waste water hose) provided with the machine.
The water supply connection must be made in accordance with the applicable requirements
and the regulations of the respective country. If the machine is connected to a newly installed
water pipe, the pipe and infeed hose must be rinsed well to ensure that no dirt gets into the
machine.
The coffee machine must be connected to an installed drinking water line with a shut-off valve.
Installation takes place via the installed pressure hose and the 3/8”-threaded union piece onto
the pressure reducer that is mounted on the water tap (set to 0.3 MPa (3 bar)).
If the machine is connected to a drain, the included temperature-resistant drain hose must be
connected to the drip tray and the siphon. It must be firmly attached to the drain and slanted
at a downward angle (so that the water can flow downward).
Power requirements
Installation
Unpacking the machine
► Unpack the machine.
► Check the remaining package contents for accessories.
► Remove the accessories supplied in the grounds container and water tank.
► Keep the original packaging in case the equipment needs to be sent back.
Automatic commissioning program
► Connect the coffee machine to the mains power supply.
► Switch on the coffee machine.
 The commissioning program automatically starts the first time the machine is switched
on. It explains all aspects of installation.
