Page 7

Super Automatic

 Check the condition of the machine, the accessories,

the power cord and the plug, and in the event of damage notify the retailer immediately.

Packing materials (plastic bags, expanded

9. OPERATION

9.1 Starting operation

Each time the machine is switched on it performs a check of its components to ensure

that everything is ready for correct operation; it moves the group and if necessary tops up the level of water in the boiler.

 Fill the water tank (use drinking water, softened if

possible for prolonged machine life).

 Insert the water tank making sure that the rubber tube

is not twisted and is inside the water tank.

 Turn on the main switch (position 1) and hold down

key 1; the words “heating please wait” will appear on the display.

 Once the operating temperature has been reached the

words “machine ready” will appear on the display.

 Press the relative key to dispense as required.

The water level in the tank (figure 1-2) must be checked regularly to prevent the pump from drawing in air and suddenly becoming

noisy while coffee is being dispensed. Should this occur, switch off immediately, top off the level of water in the tank and repeat the starting up procedure. Never put your hands under the steam tube or the brew group when carrying out the various operations.

9.2 Grind adjustment

The degree of coffee grind is set when the machine is tested, but it can be changed to suit requirements by turning the knob clockwise for a finer grind “–“, or anticlockwise for a coarser grind “+” (figure 4). To adjust the quantity of coffee ground, follow the instructions at point 13.

9.3 To dispense coffee

Press the corresponding key to dispense the coffee desired (key 2, key 3). Press once for a single brew, press twice for two consecutive brews.

9.4 To dispense hot water

Place a receptacle under the water/steam wand (figure 1-

8) and press the hot water dispenser key (key 4). Press again to stop.

9.5 To dispense steam

Press the steam dispenser key (key 5). Immerse the steam wand (figure 1-8) in the liquid to be heated (milk, punch, water etc.) Heat the liquid to the desired temperature. Press again to stop. When finished dispensing always discharge a little steam to prevent the nozzle from clogging.

9.6 To dispense cappuccino

The cappuccino maker can be supplied built-in or as an optional, so not all models are equipped with it.

 Immerse the milk drawing tube (fig.5-A) in the milk

container.

 Place the cup under the cappuccinatore and press the

cappuccino dispenser key.

 By turning the air adjustment valve, the cappuccino

froth can be made thicker or less thick (fig. 5-B).

 The milk temperature adjuster (fig-5C) allows the

velocity at which the milk passes through the cappuccinatore to be increased or decreased also regulating the temperature of the milk dispensed.

FIGURE 5

9.7 To program dosage

Once the machine is ready to dispense, press and hold down the key you wish to program. When the word “programming” appears on the display, release the key and then press it again once the desired quantity has been reached.

10. MAINTENANCE

Maintenance operations should be carried out with the machine switched off and cold, and

with the power plug disconnected. The machine should not be cleaned with metal or abrasive instruments such as wire wool, metal brushes, needles etc. or detergents. Use only a soft, damp cloth or sponge. Daily cleaning:

 Clean the steam tube 8.

 Check and clean the dregs collection drawer and the

drip tray.

 Clean the cappuccinatore after use: take a container of

water and insert the milk tube (figure 5-A) then start the cappuccinatore to clean it.

 Once a week disassemble the cappuccinatore and clean

it by immersing the pieces in warm water (figure 6)

11. TAKING OUT OF SERVICE

Page 9

FIGURE 7

11. TAKING OUT OF SERVICE

11.1. Temporarily

 Run a cleaning cycle for the coffee group

 Carry out the daily maintenance procedures.

 Turn off the main switch, disconnect the power plug.

 Empty the water tank, the drip tray and the dregs

drawer and wash them.

 Store the machine in a dry place protected from the

elements and with limited access (avoid leaving it within reach of children).

11.2. Permanently

If the machine is to be put out of order or scrapped, the following steps should also be taken in addition to the procedures for taking out of service temporarily:

 Cut the power cord.

 Pack the machine in cardboard or similar and consign

it to the relevant authorized recycling or recovery service.

12. TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

In the event of damage to the power cord, contact an authorized service center to have it

replaced as this requires special equipment. If waste materials from maintenance are polluting or non-biodegradable, they should be placed in separate containers and consigned to the appropriate collection centres.

Checks that can be carried out by the user.

A) The machine does not switch on:

- Check that the plug has been connected.

- Check that there is electric current and that the circuit

breaker or main switch is on.

- Check the condition of the plug and the power cord;

if they are damaged have them replaced by a qualified electrician.

- Check the fuses in the machine socket (Figure 2-13).

B) Does not dispense coffee:

- Lack of water in the tank; top off the level and then

turn the machine off and on again.

- Coffee pump overheated, wait for the thermal

protector to reset.

- Grind is too fine, adjust coarser. (Figure 4)

C) Does not dispense hot water or steam:

- The machine has not reached operating temperature.

- The water level in the boiler has not been topped up;

switch machine off and on again.

- Nozzles blocked; clean the nozzles on the steam

wand spray.

E) Not dispensing coffee properly:

- Coffee ground too fine or too coarse.

- Ensure there is coffee in the coffee hopper.

F) Does not grind coffee:

- Check the protection fuse on the inside of the door, if

it is blown replace with one of the same type, press and turn counter-clockwise (Figure 7).

G) Cappuccino frother not working:

- Clean frother parts shown in figure 6

For any other kind of anomaly or problem not specified here, unplug the machine from the power supply, do not attempt any repairs or

inspections and contact an authorized service center.

*For the prolonged life of the machine we recommend using water that is under 3 grains of hardness. If you are unsure of your water hardness, please use the provided test strips or contact your local water district. When using bottled water it is still very important to test the water for hardness, as some bottled water can be extremely hard.
