or fitted for connection to the water mains
- Steam delivery
- Hot water delivery
An espresso coffee machine is basically made up of the following elements:
Boiler
Is used to contain the hot water and steam and is made of brass so that its properties do not deteriorate over the years.
Brewing group
The brewing group is the component which, when attached to the filter holder (containing the filter and the ground coffee or the coffee pod),
brews and delivers the beverages when supplied with hot water.
Heat source
This is normally provided by an electric heating element immersed in the boiler which heats the water and provide the steam.
Electric pump
This device is used for transferring water from the reservoir to the boiler.
Steam and water tap
It allows steam to be delivered to give the indispensable "froth" to the milk used for preparing cappuccino, for heating water and punches and
for preparing chocolate drinks, and water to be delivered for preparing hot drinks, tea and tisanes.
The manufacturer has obviously taken every possible precaution to guarantee user safety, but the different installation and/or transport conditions
could give rise to uncontrollable or unpredictable conditions; so it is always necessary to assess possible hidden hazards and to consider
the following suggestions:
- The packing elements (cardboard, cellophane, metal staples, etc.) can cut, wound or cause accidents if not handled carefully or if used
incorrectly; do not leave them accessible to children or unsuitable people.
- Any fault or defect should be promptly notified to the personnel who are qualified and authorized to carry out installation and maintenance.
- An earthing connection is mandatory, as is the system's conformity with the regulations in force in the country of installation. The manufacturer
accepts no responsibility for accidents due to non-compliance with the regulations.
- The use of extensions or flying connections is prohibited. The working environment is heavily exposed to water and damp which
prevent the natural conditions for insulating the system.
- The machine must only be installed by authorized, qualified personnel.
- Check the condition of the components and, should defects or faults arise, stop the installation and ask for their replacement.
- Ensure that the power supply voltage (see rating plate) is the same as that of the mains supply network to be used in the place of
installation.
- The customer must provide for the machine's power supply, protecting the line with a suitable safety cut-out (life-saver).
