14 INSTALLATION BUILDING-IN Installing the machine into kitchen furniture with proper characteristics will ensure a correct operation of the equipment. Complying with the safety rules, ensure a proper protection against any contact with the electric components and with the parts protected only by functional insulation, by housing the machine correctly into the furniture.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION • Fix the power cable onto the left side of the cabinet using one of the self-threading screws of the equipment and the proper cable clamp as shown in the figure. • Unscrew the cable clamp available on the machine. • Fix the power cable onto the machine as shown in the figure.
• Connect the power cable as shown in the figure. This machine is designed for a single phase voltage of 230V. The power supply requires only outlets of 13A fuse and a double pole isolation switch with at least 3 mm between contacts. INSTALLING THE MACHINE • Lay the U base plate of the machine on the shelf of the cabinet. • Ιnsert the L plates, compensating for any space. The width of the housing unit the coffee machine depends on the thickness of the cabinet’s sides.
• Τhey should be used to compensate for the internal width of the compartment, leading to a width of 560/570 mm. • Fix the U base plate inserting 4 selfthreading screws into the 4 front holes of the same plate. Then screw the telescopic runners to each side with the remaining 8 self-threading screw. • Insert the machine into the housing by coupling the machine to the runners fixed to the sides of the carcass.
• Slide the machine into the cabinet until the “click” indicates that it is locked into Position. 15 SOMETHING NOT WORKING.....
