For Your Safety
Both you and the Evolution are important to us. Therefore, we would like to provide you with detailed safety
information. For us, a high level of safety goes without saying. Protect yourself against remaining risks from
use of the machine.
Proper use
If you need more information
or if specic problems occur
that cannot be resolved using
these instructions, contact
your local customer service
representative for the required
information or contact FRANKE
Kaeemaschinen AG in Aar-
burg, Switzerland, directly.
Important
Do not operate the Evolution and its add-on units until you have
read and understood these instructions in full. Keep these instruc-
tions near your Evolution.
The Evolution coee machine is intended for use by trained sta.
Each operator of the Evolution must have read an understood these
instructions. This does not apply to self-service customers. Self-serv-
ice machines must always be monitored to protect the users.
Children or physically or mentally challenged persons must never
approach the machine alone and must always be supervised.
Have the machine serviced at regular intervals. Regular mainte-
nance will ensure the safe operation and high performance of your
Evolution.
If the Evolution is sold or transferred to a third party, please give the
operating instructions to the next user.
Evolution
The Evolution is a coee machine for use in food service, oces and
similar environments. It is designed to process whole coee beans.
The various add-on units allow integrated processing of milk with
the Evolution.
The Evolution is designed exclusively for preparing coee drinks,
milk combination drinks, hot water and steam in accordance with
these instructions and the technical data.
Refrigeration Unit/Milk Systems (optional)
Milk systems are optional add-on units for Evolution coee ma-
chines. They are to be used only to cool milk in conjunction with
preparing coee drinks with an Evolution coee machine.
Only use pre-cooled milk (2-5°C or 36-41°F). Only use FRANKE
cleaning solution. Other detergents may leave a residue in the milk
system.
Cup Warmer (optional)
The cup warmer is an optional add-on unit for Evolution coee ma-
chines. It is intended only for warming coee cups and glasses used
when preparing drinks.
The cup warmer is not designed to dry dish towels or other cloths. It
is not necessary to cover the cups to warm them.
