nPROGRAMMINGS
The access to programmings is possible only with a CUSTOMER magnetic card.
Introduce your card in the reader, press the MENU key and select the heading you wish
to modify pressing ( + ) or ( - ) keys:
ØAdjustment of the clock
ØProgramming of the different volumes or timings (PRO. NUMERIC)
ØProgramming of the waste drawer capacity (PRO. DRAWER CAPACITY)
ØProgramming of the automatic passage from Day to Night (PRO. DAY/NIGHT)
ØNeutralizing of the safety sensors in the hoppers (PRO. COFFEE SAFETY)
CAUTION: You must avoid switching off the machine when a magnetic card is
in the reader. In some cases, this can modify some programmings (particularly
the grinders assignment to keys).
A) EXPLANATION OF EACH FUNCTION OF THE CUSTOMER MENU
1) Clock
Allows adjustment of the time, date and day of the week
2) "PN" Numeric programming
Allows modification of the parameters relative to the water volumes or to the steam
timings:
D : Water dose for the coffee cycles or hot water outlet
T : Timing of the steam outlet
Tm : Timing for the milk foam
Tl : Timing for the hot milk
The PN programming modifies simultaneously the 1-cup and 2-cup keys of a same
type of beverage and of the same unit.
3) Programming of waste drawer capacity
Permits programming the number of cups of the waste drawer capacity according to the
coffee adjustments of the customer. A previous message indicates when 90% of this
quantity is reached. At 100% of this quantity, the "drawer overflow" safety countdown
blocks the machine. The average capacity is about 120 cups. The maximum value that
can be programmed is 999, in the case for example of a direct chute through the counter
(optional equipment). The value "00" cancels the "drawer overflow" safety.
4) DAY/NIGHT programming
Permits programming the hours of automatic passage from Night to Day mode or vice
versa, followed or not by an automatic cleaning cycle. It is possible to neutralize the days
corresponding to weekly closing days. The days are represented by a figure (1=monday ;
2=Tuesday ; … and 7=sunday). When a day is neutralized, the corresponding figure is
replaced by X. To activate or disactivate a day, you must press the Night/Day key when
this day is blinking.
Note:
When the automatic cleaning function is activated, the cleaning cycles occur even if the
Day/Night or Night/Day passage is operated manually pressing the Day/Night key.
5) Coffee safety programming
Permits the deactivation of safety sensors in the coffee hoppers in case of an abnormal
functioning of the photoelectric cells (e.g : need for cleaning , etc…….)
B) OTHER PROGRAMMINGS / SELF MODE
Only a qualified technician well acquainted with the coffee machine will be able to do all
the other programmings and controls in order to meet your requirements. Particularly, he
will be able to configure your machine in SELF MODE neutralizing some keys of the
central keyboard in order to avoid inapropriate use by non-authorized persons. In this
case, the display indicates
"UNIC TANGO/S".

DAILY CLEANINGS
ON A FULLY AUTOMATIC COFFEE MACHINE, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO CARRY
OUT, AT LEAST ONCE PER DAY, THE CLEANING SEQUENCES ABOVE-
DESCRIBED, IN ORDER TO ENSURE A CORRECT LEVEL OF HYGIENE, SERVICE
QUALITY, AND RELIABILITY OF YOUR COFFEE MACHINE.
A) QUICK CYCLE (duration 15 seconds)
COFFEE
UNIT F⇒FCAPPUCCINO DEVICE* F⇒F
These cycles consist in making water pass through all the corresponding circuits They can
be repeated several times or stopped by pressing the key ( - ) or ( + ) again as desired.
* This cycle is imposed by the machine 15 minutes after the last use of the capuccino
device.
B) LONG CYCLE COFFEE UNITS (duration 3 to 4 minutes)
These cycles are possible only by the programming of the Day/Night automatic passage.
During this programming the user can activate the Automatic cleaning option. If the option
is activated, on each Day/Night or Night/Day passage, a long cleaning cycle will start
automatically. This cycle consists of making hot water pass, and also with some piston
movements and some sequences of openings and closings of the infusion and cleaning
electrovalves.
C) LONG CYCLE WITH CLEANING TABLET COFFEE UNITS (duration 3 to 4 minutes)
TO BE CARRIED OUT OBLIGATORILY EVERYDAY AFTER SERVICE
-Remove the waste drawer
-Unscrew the plug of the cleaning block located under the drawer.
-Introduce a cleaning tablet and screw the plug back in (without blocking it)
-Put the drawer back and press ( + ) or ( - ) key according the case.
The display indicates how to proceed step by step. For safety reasons, this
cycle can not be stopped in order to ensure a perfect rinsing of the cleaning
product.
D) CAPPUCCINO DEVICE
A cleaning cycle of the "milk" circuit is done from a "foam" or "milk" key, replacing milk by
water, with possibly a cleaning product adapted to the cleaning of the dairy residues. In
this case, of course, several rinses with water must be carried out, after using the product.
E) DISASSEMBLING OF THE MILK AND COFFEE OUTLETS
It is advised to disassemble daily after service the milk and coffee
outlets for careful cleaning.
-Place the coffee spouts down and draw them forward.
-Clean the spouts under a tap or in a dish-washer.
-Disassemble the complete cappuccino device turning the whole
thing to the right and drawing it down.
-Disassemble each part for separate cleaning including the milk
sucking tube.
- Re-assemble the whole mechanism.
F) STEAM TUBE
After each use, clean the steam tube with a wet rag and push the steam push-button for
a short moment to eliminate the small amount of milk inside the tube. Disassemble the
end of the steam outlet to clean it more easily.
G) BODY
Use a soft cloth and alcohol for the stainless-steel parts and a non-abrasive detergent for
the painted parts.
The blue doors can be removed for easier the access when cleaning. To do this open the
doors, move aside the tongue of the axle and remove the door downwards.
The waste drawer is fully stainless-steel and it can be cleaned with water without problem.
But be careful not to scratch the painted parts.
