INSTALLATION
When installing the FUTURETE coffee machine verify if the location gathers the
necessary conditions for its correct use. Never install it in places with water
jets.
Choose a levelled support surface, with easy electrical supply, running or
bottled water access and sewage.
IMPORTANT: the access to running water must be earthed in order to
guarantee differential protection, so that there is no electrocution hazard for
the user. The device is provided with fixed electrical installation, therefore it
is strictly forbidden to use wall sockets (only for 3 group models), or
multiple sockets and extensions (for 1 group, 2 group and 3 group
models).
The installation of the equipment must be settled in a place where its
maintenance is always made by trained personnel, so that they can keep the
machine under surveillance.
It is important that the rated residual operating current not exceed 30
mA, given that it has a leakage current superior to 10mA.
When performing all the previously described procedures, turn the main
switch to position 1, wait for the automatic filling of the boiler to be complete.
Turn the switch to position 2 so that the red signal lights up and the resistance
is activated. Wait until the the right pointer of the manometer reaches 1 bar.
At this moment, the equipment can be used, but always verify if the coffee
grind used is adequate.

The device has 1 or 2 steam wands that should be opened before being used, to
clean eventual residue of a previous use.
The connection of the device should be performed according to the following
scheme:
Figure 1 - Single-phase and multiphase machine connection scheme.
As shown in the above picture, for single-phase machines (230V 1N ~), the
brown wire of the power cord should be connected to the main switch L1
connector, the blue wire of the power cord should be connected to the
main switch N connector, and the yellow and green wire should be
connected to the ground wire that protects the machine. For multiphase
machines (400V 2N ~), instead of one brown wire, there is one black wire
connector to the L1 connector and one brown wire connected to the
L2 connector, the other connections remain the same.
