Spectra
The Spectra is a coffee machine for use in food service, offices and
similar environments. It is designed to process whole coffee beans,
powder and fresh milk.
Your coffee machine is designed exclusively for preparing coffee
drinks, powdered drinks and hot water in accordance with these
instructions and the technical data.
Flavour Station (optional)
The Flavour Station is only intended for the automatic pumping of
syrups and other liquid flavorings for the preparation of drinks.
The Flavour Station is not designed to pump viscous fluids such as
sauces (e.g. chocolate sauce).
For your safety
If you need more information or
if specific problems occur that
cannot be resolved using these
instructions, contact your local
customer service representa-
tive for the required information
or contact FRANKE Kaffee-
maschinen AG in Aarburg,
Switzerland, directly.
Refrigeration unit/Milk systems (optional)
The milk systems are to be used only to cool milk in conjunction with
preparing coffee drinks with a Spectra coffee 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 only intended for warming coffee 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.
Both you and the coffee machine 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

Preparations
•The power connection for the coffee machine must be protected
by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).
•Each terminal of the power supply must be able to be interrupted
by a switch.
•The water connection must have a shut-off with a check valve and
filter and must meet the requirements of the technical data. (Only
when being used with a water connection)
•The water for the preparation of coffee should always be fresh,
oxygenated and rich in minerals.
•If you own a coffee machine with an electrical connection other
than those described in the table opposite, you will have received
additional information regarding the installation with your order
confirmation.
Installation
You must have completed these preparations before one of our serv-
ice technicians can install the coffee machines for you.
One of our service technicians will install your coffee machines and
put them into operation for the first time. The technician will walk you
through the basic functions.
Your Spectra must be properly installed so that you can operate it correctly—one of our service technicians will do
that for you. You'll have to take care of a few things first. You'll find the preparations for problem-free enjoyment of
your coffee machine here
