Installation & commissioning
Initial use
The coffee machine must be installed and commissioned by a qualied service technician approved by
the manufacturer.
●If the coffee machine and/or accessories are transported at temperatures below 10°C, the cof-
fee machine and/or accessories must be stored for 3 hours at room temperature before the
coffee machine and/or accessories are connected to the mains and switched on. Failure to
observe this precaution can result in a danger of short-circuit or damage to electrical compo-
nents.
●Always use the new hose set (fresh water/outlet hose) provided with the machine!
Setup conditions
The preparatory work at the installation site must be contracted by the machine purchaser or the authorised
dealer. It must be carried out by licensed installers observing all general as well as locally applicable regulati-
ons. The service technician may only establish the connection to the prepared connections. He/she is neither
authorised to carry out structural installation, nor is he/she responsible for its implementation.
Location
The installation location must meet the following conditions:
●Do not set up the coffee machine on hot surfaces or close to ovens.
●Never spray the device with water or clean it with a steam cleaner.
●Install the device only in locations where it is supervised by trained personnel.
●The installation surface must be stable and level and must not become deformed under the weight of
the coffee machine.
●The required supply terminals must be within one meter of the installation location according to the
structural installation plans.
● Maintain the following clearances for maintenance work and operation:
- At the top, maintain clearance for adding beans
- On the left side, maintain a clearance of ± 35 cm
- Between the rear panel of the device and the wall, maintain a minimum clearance of 15 cm for air
circulation
● Observe and comply with all applicable local kitchen regulations.
Ambient conditions
The installation location requires the following climatic conditions:
●The machine is not suitable for outdoor use. Do not expose the coffee machine to outside weather
conditions such as rain, snow, frost, etc.
●Ambient temperature of 10 °C to 40 °C (50 °F to 104 °F)
●Relative humidity maximum 80% rh
●The coffee machine is designed for indoor use only.

Conditions
The electrical power supply must be connected in accordance with the applicable regulations (VDE 0100)
and the regulations of the country of installation. Type of power cable at least H05 RN-F. The voltage spe-
cied on the serial plate must match the supply voltage at the installation location.
●The phase must be fused at the ampere value specied on the serial plate.
●It must be possible to disconnect the device from the mains power supply at all poles.
●Never operate a device with a damaged power cord. Have a defective power cord or plug repla-
ced immediately by a qualied service technician.
●Schaerer AG recommends against using an extension cable. If, despite this, an extension
cable is used (minimum cross-section: 1.5 mm2), observe the manufacturer data for the cable
(operating instructions) and the locally applicable regulations.
●The mains cables must be installed in such a way that they do not present a tripping hazard.
Do not pull the cords over corners or sharp edges, pinch them between objects or allow them
to hang loosely in a room. Do not position cables over hot objects and protect them from expo-
sure to oil and aggressive cleaning products.
●Never lift or pull the device by the power cable. Never pull the plug out of the socket by its
cord. Never touch the power cord or plug with wet hands! Never insert a wet plug into a power
socket!

Water connection / draining
Conditions
The water supply connection must be made in accordance with the applicable requirements and the re-
gulations of the respective country. If the machine is connected to a newly installed water line, the pipe
and the inlet hose must be thoroughly ushed to prevent particles from entering the machine. The coffee
machine must be connected to an installed drinking water line with a shut-off valve. The machine is con-
nected to the pressure reducing valve on the main water valve (set to 0.3 MPa (3 bar)) using the mounted
pressure hose and the G 3/8"screw connection. If the machine is connected to a drain, the included tem-
perature-resistant drain hose must be connected to the drip tray and the siphon. It must be rmly attached
to the drain and slanted at a downward angle (so that the water can ow downward).
●Always use the new hose set (fresh water/outlet hose) provided with the machine! Do not use
old hose sets.
●Schaerer Ltd. recommends setting the pressure reducing valve to 0.3 MPa (3 bar).
Water supply G 3/8" tube connection (inside thread) with main tap and dirt lter provi-
ded by customer, max. water temperature 30 °C.
Flow speed Min. 2 l/min.
Water pressure Recommended Maximum

Water quality The water must be free of contaminants and the chlorine content must
not exceed 100 mg per litre. Do not connect the machine to pure reverse
osmosis water or other aggressive types of water. The carbonate hard-
ness must not exceed 4 – 6°dKH (German carbonate hardness) or 7 –
10°fKH (French carbonate hardness), and the total hardness value must
always be higher than the carbonate hardness. The minimum carbonate
hardness is 4°dKH or 7°fKH. The pH value must be between 6.5 – 7.
