FM850
The FM850 is a coffee machine for use in food service, offices and
similar environments. It is designed to process whole coffee beans,
powder suitable for automatic devices and fresh milk.
Your coffee machine is designed exclusively for preparing coffee
drinks, powder drinks and hot water in accordance with these instructions and the technical data.
For your safety
Flavour Station (optional)
The Flavour Station is intended exclusively for the automatic conveyance of syrups and other liquid aromas for the preparation of drinks.
The Flavour Station is not designed to pump more viscous fluids such
as sauces (e.g. chocolate sauce).
Refrigeration unit
A refrigeration unit is part of your FM850. It is to be used only to cool
milk in conjunction with preparing coffee drinks with a FM850 coffee
machine.
Only use pre-cooled milk (2 - 5 °C or 36 - 41°F). Only use FRANKE
cleaning solution. Other cleaning agents may leave residue in the
milk system.
Cup warmer (optional)
The cup warmer is an optional add-on unit for your coffee machine.
It is intended only for warming coffee cups and glasses used when
preparing drinks.
The cup warmer is not designed to dry dish towels or other cloths. It
is not necessary to cover the cups to warm them.
Both you and the coffee machine are important to us. Therefore, we would like to provide you with detailed safety information. For us, a high degree of safety goes without saying. Protect yourself against
residual risks arising from the functions of the machine.

Preparations
•The power connection for the coffee machine must be protected
by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).
•Each terminal of the power supply must be able to be interrupted
by a switch.
•The water connection must have a shut-off cock with a check
valve and filter and must meet the requirements of the technical
data. (Only when being used with a water connection)
•If your coffee machine has an electrical connection other than
the one described in the table opposite, you will have received
additional information regarding the installation with your order
confirmation.
•The water connection to your coffee machine must be accomplished with the hose set that is supplied with it. Do not use any
other water hoses that happen to be present.
Installation
You must have completed these preparations before one of our Service technicians can install the coffee machine for you.
Your Service technician will install your coffee machine and put it into
operation for the first time. The technician will walk you through the
basic functions.
Your FM850 must be properly installed so that you can operate it correctly – your Service technician will do that for you.
You'll have to take care of a few things first. You'll find the prerequisites for problem-free enjoyment of your coffee machine here.
