6 Preparation
6.1 Preparation of the machine
The preparation of the machine and the instal-
lation operations must be carried out by qualied
personnel only.
The installer must strictly follow the indications
provided in chap. 5 "Warnings for the Installer".
6.2 Grinding and dosing coee
Place the grinder-doser in a convenient place
near the machine.
Grinding and dosing of coee must take place
in accordance with the instructions of the manu-
facturer of the grinder-doser.
To obtain good quality espresso coee we sug-
gest the following:
t not to store large amounts of coee beans. to
observe (in any case) the expiry date indicated
by the producer.
t to grind an amount of coee based on use, pre-
pare the amount contained in the doser and if
possible use it before the end of the day;
t never to buy (if possible) already ground coee,
as it expires quickly. if necessary, to buy it in small
vacuum-sealed packages.
to fill the filter with a dose of ground coffee
(about 6-7 gr.) and press it with the special coee
presser. Hook the portalter to the delivery group.
2. release the whole volume of hot water inside
the boiler (8 liters for 2GR, 13 liters for 3GR and
4GR), by performing a continuous delivery from
the appropriate nozzle. In the case of several
dispensing points, divide the volume on the
base of the number of the dispensing points;
3. continuously release steam for at least 1 minute
for each steam dispensing point;
!Using the machine without all the installation
operations having been carried out by technical
personnel could damage it seriously.
!The machine must be placed in a perfectly hori-
zontal position.
!
To prevent the seal from wearing too soon,
clean the edge of the lter before engaging
the portalter on the delivery group. Do not
excessively tighten the portalter to the dis-
pensing group.
5.5 Maintenance and repairs
After ta maintenance and/or repair intervention,
the components used must ensure that the hygiene
and safety requirements initially foreseen for the ap-
pliance are still met. These are met by using original
spare parts only.
After a repair or a substitution of components
related to parts in direct contact with water and
food, a washing procedure has to be carried out, as
in the case of rst installation.
iMaintenance operations should not be carried out
by children without supervision.

is turned on, it per-
forms the functional
test and reports in-
formation regarding
the software installed.
t xx-xx-xx : update date
t Rx : software revision number;
t D.Board x.xx: display card version.
The result O.K. in-
dicates that the ma-
chine is working cor-
rectly.
If the machine fails
the functional test, contact the Technical Support
Service.
When the ma-
chine is turned on, it
will activate the mo-
tor pump installed
and begin to ll the
services boiler and the water heaters for the coee
(present in a number equal to the number of deliv-
ery groups installed on the machine.)
In order to bleed
any air present in the
heaters, each time the
machine is turned on
the solenoid valves
of the groups will be activated, making water and
steam come out from the perforated disk of each
group for about 10 seconds.
When the heating
phase of the delivery
groups has finished
(after about 10 min-
utes), signalled by
the disappearance of the “PLEASE WAIT” indication,
it will be possible to make the coee selections. For
the dispensing of hot water and steam, it will be
necessary to wait for the complete heating of the
services boiler.
During the heat-
ing phase of the
services boiler (from
95°C to 98°C), the
machine will execute
a light delivery of water and steam from the hot
water nozzle.
The dispensing of
steam and hot wa-
ter, and thus the full
operation of the ma-
chine, will be possi-
ble only at a pressure greater than 0.6 bar.
!To avoid the risk of burns, it is advisable to
keep hands away from the hot water nozzle,
steam nozzle and delivery groups during the
machine's heating phase.
Turn the ma-
chine on using the
main switch (14)
and follow the in-
dications provided
on the machine's
display, as de-
scribed below.
iBefore using the machine, run deliveries dry with
the filter holder attached for a few seconds to
release any air which may be in the circuit, so that
the delivery groups are completely heated.

12 Energy Saving System
The machine is provided with a software that
manages the automatic standby sistem during
breaks, the night Energy-saving feature and the
intelligent adjustment of the temperature.
This allows a considerable energy saving, during
night breaks, maintaining the machine in the condi-
tion to quickly return to operate.
Moreover, the software distributes the power
only where and when it is needed, thus allowing
to save energy during the normal working activity
too.
If provided for in the programming, it automati-
cally puts into standby one or more groups when
the workload decreases and prepares them for full
capacity when needed.
All this is indicated in the following way:
To bring a dispensing group back from standby,
press and hold the respective “PROG/STOP” button
for 3 seconds.
It will return to full operation in about 1-2 min-
utes.
If the machine is in the “ENERGY SAVING” mode,
also the services boiler will be reactivated, thus exit-
ing the "energy saving" mode.
The dispensing groups and the services boiler,
which have been reactivated, will remain opera-
tive until the next time limit set for the start-up of
the energy saving mode (for the machine) or of the
standby mode (for the dispensing groups) expires.
The system will continue to follow the pro-
grammed energy saving settings.
All the groups are in
standby, the entire ma-
chine (including the serv-
ices boiler) is in energy
saving phase.
One or more delivery
groups (but not all of them)
are in standby.

14.1 Softener
Mains water contains insoluble salts, which cause
the build-up of lime scale deposits in the boiler and
in other parts of the machine. The softener makes
it possible to eliminate or substantially reduce the
presence of these mineral salts. The resin softener
has the property of retaining the calcium contained
in the water. For this reason, the resins become
saturated after a certain period and must be re-
generated with coarse kitchen salt (NaCl, sodium
chloride) or special water softening salt. It is very
important to regenerate the softener within the
established times. The regeneration is to be done
regularly every 15 days. However, in locations with
very hard water, it will be necessary to regenerate
more frequently. The same rule can be applied to
places where there is a large consumption of hot
water for tea or other uses.
Softener regeneration
Proceed as follows:
t move levers (B) and (E) from left to right;
t remove the lid by loosening the knob (A);
t release enough water through the pipe (C) to
make room for the amount of salt to be intro-
duced, as required depending on the model (see
the table on the following page);
t clean any salt or resin residue from the gasket
located on the lid;
t put the lid back in place by screwing the knob
(A) down securely and move the lever (B) back
from right to left;
t let the salt water drain from the small tube (D)
until the water is no longer salty (about 30-60
minutes). The salt allows the accumulated min-
eral salts to be released;
t bring the lever (E) from right to left back to its
initial position.
Softener model Amount of salt
8 litres 1.0 kg
12 litres 1.5 kg
16 litres 2.0 kg
In order to keep the softener and hence the ma-
chine in perfect operating condition, it is necessary
to perform regeneration periodically based on the
use of the softener and the hardness of the water
that is used. The table below shows the quantity of
softened water based on the hardness of the water
in the various units of measure:
t °f: French degree
t °d: German degree = 1.8 °f
t mg CaCO3
For further information on installation, start-up
and regeneration of the softener, refer to the relative
instruction manual.

The build-up of lime scale deposits in the
hydraulic circuit and boiler inhibits thermal
exchange, thus compromising proper opera-
tion of the machine. Heavy incrustations in the
boiler may cause long machine shutdowns and
in any case invalidate any guarantee, because
this symptom indicates that regeneration has
been neglected.
