INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL NOTES

Thoroughly read the instructions contained in this booklet because it gives important information regarding safety for installation, use and maintenance.
Keep this booklet in a safe and accessible place for further consultation.
This machine must be used only for the purpose it was designed:
dispensing coffee, cappuccino, pouring hot water.
Any other use is to be considered inappropriate and therefore dangerous.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage caused by any improper, incorrect and unreasonable use of the machine.
The use of any electric appliance implies the observance of some fundamental rules.
More specifically:

 do not touch the appliance with your hands or feet wet or damp
 do not use the appliance with bare feet
 do not pull the power cord to disconnect the plug from the power socket
 dot not leave the appliance exposed to the weather (rain, sun, frost)
 do not let children or untrained persons use the appliance.

Before carrying out any cleaning and maintenance, disconnect the appliance from the power supply, pulling the plug from the power socket and turning off
the main switch.
In case of failure or malfunction turn the machine off and do not attempt to carry out any repairs or direct operations on the machine.
All repairs must be carried out in an authorised service centre, using original spare parts only.
Failure to comply with the above recommendations will compromise the safety of the machine and the warranty conditions.
If this machine is no longer used we recommend that it is made inoperative by disconnecting the cable from the power supply, and all potentially dangerous
parts are made harmless, especially to protect children who might use the machine for their games.

INSTALLATION NOTES

Installation must be carried out according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
An incorrect installation can cause damage to persons, animals or things; the manufacturer declines all responsibility for such situation.
Place the machine on a table having minimum height of 0,95mt. Furthermore the surface has to be flat, having a maximum inclination of 5°, in order to
secure a perfect stability. Check also that the table can bear the weight of the machine.
This is a professional machine and is not designed for home use and must be operated by duly qualified persons.
Place the machine in a restricted area where just qualified people are allowed to use and maintain it.
The machine must not be used by children or people with reduced mobility, sensory, mental or lack of experience or education, unless there is a supervisor.
After unpacking check that the machine is not damaged.
If in doubt, do not use the machine and contact an Carimali Spa. Authorised Service Centre.
All packing materials (plastic wrapping, polystyrene, nails, etc.) are potentially dangerous and must be kept out of children’s reach and disposed of in a safe
manner for the environment.
Before connecting the machine to the power supply make sure that the rating information of the machine correspond to that of the power supply: if the
power socket is not compatible with the plug of the machine (if supplied), replace the socket with a proper one, ensuring that the size of the cable is suitable
for the absorbed power of the machine.
Make sure that the voltage rating of the machine corresponds to that of the power supply, and that the power supply is adequate to additional power
absorption of the machine.
In case the machine is supplied with power cord and without plug, connect the machine to the main switch with bipolar knife switch and protection fuses. In
case of maintenance, open the bipolar knife switch.
In case the machine is supplied with power cord and plug, the use of adapters, multiple power boards and extension cords is not recommended.
If it is absolutely necessary, then use only single or multiple adapters and extension cords which comply with current safety regulations, ensuring also that
the electricity load capacity of the single adapters and extension cords and the maximum power rating of the multiple adapters is suitable.
The electrical safety of this machine can be guaranteed only if correctly connected to an efficient earth circuit as indicated by current electrical safety
regulations.
It is necessary to check this fundamental safety prerequisite, and in case of doubt, ask a professionally qualified technician to check the circuit.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage caused by failure to earth the equipment.

In order to avoid any dangerous overheating, we recommend that the power cord be fully unwound.
In case of damage to the cord, contact exclusively an authorised service centre to have it replaced.
The power cord of this machine must not be replaced by the customer.
Do not leave the machine connected unnecessarily.
Turn off the main switch of the machine when not in use.
Do not cover the ventilation openings of the machine.
Place the machine at an adequate distance from walls, objects, etc.
The machine must be connected to a system with a water pressure which is not greater than 0.6 MPa. Do not use pipes and coupling gaskets already used
for previous installations.
If the pressure is greater, a pressure reducer must be installed.
The machine must be connected to a softener.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS TO USE THE MACHINE
Environmental temperature: 5 – 30 °C (empty the hydraulic system in case of freezing)
Maximum humidity: 80% relative humidity
Water hardness: 5° eh, 7° dH, 13° Fh

USE AND MAINTENANCE NOTES

For a correct functioning of the machine it is fundamental to comply with the manufacturer’s instructions, having qualified personnel to carry out special
maintenance and to check all safety devices.
Do not use the machine without water.
Avoid to expose hands or other parts of the body to the coffee dispensing spouts or to the steam or hot water nozzles.
The water and steam from the nozzles is very hot and can cause severe burns.
The water and steam nozzles and the filter holders are very hot and therefore must be handled with care, holding them in the appropriate points.
Do not leave the machine in rooms where the temperature is below 0°C or 32°F without having first drai ned the boiler and the hydraulic circuit.
Cups and coffee cups must be placed on the cup-warmer tray (if fitted) only after having been fully drained.
Only the crockery related to the machine should be placed on the cup-warmer tray.
Placing any other object on the tray is to be considered incorrect.
The machine is not waterproof and therefore should not be cleaned with water jet.

Failure to clean machines daily, especially for brewing unit and milk frother (optional), using approved cleaning products and following specified cleaning
procedure will result in void warranty and service contract.
