User at risk!

Improper handling of electrical devices can result in electric shock. Please observe the following points:

• Work on electrical systems must only be performed by qualified electricians.

• The device must be connected to a fused electrical network (we recommend routing the connection through a residual-current device).

• All applicable low voltage guidelines and/or country-specific or local safety regulations and laws must be observed.

• The connection must be properly earthed and protected against electric shock.

• The voltage must match the specified values on the device's serial plate.

• Never touch live parts.

• Before performing service work, always switch off the main switch and/or disconnect the device from the power supply.

• The power cable must only be replaced by qualified service technicians.

Beverages containing additives or traces of additives may trigger allergies. Please observe the following points:

• For self-service mode, a sign should be displayed in the vicinity of

the machine to provide information about any additives used which could trigger an allergic reaction.

• For full-service mode, trained personnel should be on hand to pro-

vide information about any additives used which could trigger an allergic reaction.

Danger of poisoning from swallowing cleaning products. Always observe the following points:

• Store cleaning products away from children and unauthorised per-

sons.

• Do not swallow the cleaning products.

• Never mix cleaning products with other chemicals or acids.

• Never pour cleaning products into the milk container.

• Never pour cleaning products into the drinking water tank (internal/ external).

• Only use the cleaning and descaling products for their intended purpose (see label).

• Do not eat or drink while handling cleaning products.

• Ensure that the area is well ventilated when handling cleaning products.

• Wear safety gloves when handling cleaning products.

• Wash your hands thoroughly after handling cleaning products.

There is a risk of scalding in the area where beverages, hot water and steam are dispensed. Never reach under the dispensing units while the machine is dispensing or during cleaning.

The dispensing units and brewing unit can become hot. Do not touch any part of the dispensing equipment except for the grips provided. Only clean the brewing unit after the coffee machine has cooled down.

When working with moving components, there is a risk of fingers or hands becoming trapped. While the coffee machine is switched on, never reach into the

bean hoppers or powder containers or into the opening of the brewing unit.

Risk of damage to the machine

Improper handling of the coffee machine can lead to damage or contamination. Please observe the following points:

• For water with a carbonate hardness above 5 °dH, install a calcium

filter, as the coffee machine can otherwise be damaged by limescale deposits.

• For insurance reasons, always ensure that at the end of the business day, the stop valve on the water supply (coffee machine with mains water supply) is closed and the main power switch is switched off or the power cable is unplugged.

• Applicable low voltage guidelines and/or country-specific or local safety regulations and laws must be observed.

• Do not operate the device if the water supply is blocked. Otherwise, the boilers will not be refilled and the pump will run dry.

• To prevent water damage in case of hose breakage, Schaerer AG recommends routing the water supply connection through a water shut-off valve (at the installation site).

• After extended downtime (e.g. holiday), the coffee machine must be cleaned before it is put back into operation.

• Protect the coffee machine from weather elements (frost, moisture, etc.).

• Faults must only be remedied by a qualified service technician.

• Only use Schaerer AG original spare parts.

• Report any noticeable damage or leaks immediately to an authorised service partner, and have any faulty parts replaced and/or repaired.

• Never spray off the device with water or clean it using a steam cleaner.

• Do not set up the device on surfaces on which a water jet might be used.

• When using caramelised coffee (flavoured coffee), clean the brewing unit twice daily.

• Only fill the bean hopper with coffee beans, the powder container with automatic machine powder and the manual inlet with ground coffee (or cleaning tablets during cleaning).

• Never use freeze-dried coffee as it clogs the brewing unit.

• If the coffee machine and/or auxiliary equipment is transported at temperatures below 10°C, the coffee machine and/or auxiliary equipment must be stored at room temperature for three hours before it can be connected to the power supply and switched on. If these instructions are not followed, condensation may cause short circuits or damage electrical components.

• Always use the new hose set supplied with the machine (drinking

DANGER!

Risk of electrocution!

Risk of electrocution! Always observe the following points:

• The phase must be fused at the ampere value specified on the serial plate.

• It must be possible to disconnect the device from the mains power supply at all poles.

• The local power supply must be constructed according to the currently valid IEC 364 (DIN VDE 0100). An isolated ground outlet or a country-specific single-phase outlet for singlephase connection, or a 5-pole CEE / CEKON socket per EN 60309 or a country-specific multi-pole socket for a three-phase connection, must be available near the machine. The sockets are part of the customer‘s on-site installation. The mains cable must not come into contact with hot surfaces. If the mains cable for this device is damaged then it must be replaced by our service personnel or a similarly qualified person, in order to prevent hazards.

• Never operate a device with a damaged power cable. Have a defective power cable or plug replaced immediately by a qualified service technician.

• Schaerer AG does not recommend using an extension cable. If an extension cable is nevertheless used (minimum cross-section: 1.5 mm²), please comply with the manufacturer’s specifications for the cable (operating instructions) and with applicable local regulations.

• Route the power cable in such a way that it does not pose a tripping hazard. Do not pull the cable over corners or sharp edges, pinch it between objects or allow it to hang loosely in open spaces. Do not position the cable over hot objects, and be sure to protect the cable from exposure to oil and aggressive cleaning products.

• Never lift or pull the device by the power cable. Never pull the plug out of the socket by its cable. Never touch the power cable or plug with wet hands. Never insert a wet plug into a power socket.

Water connection/drain

Conditions

The machine can become damaged as a result of poor material and incorrect water values. Always observe the following points:

• The water must be free of contaminants and the chlorine content must not exceed 100 mg mg per litre.

• Do not connect the machine to pure reverse osmosis water or other aggressive types of water.

• The carbonate hardness must not exceed 5 – 6°dKH (German carbonate hardness) or 8.9 – 10.7°fKH (French carbonate hardness), and the total hardness value must always be greater than the carbonate hardness.

• The minimum carbonate hardness is 5 °dKH or 8.9 °fKH. The pH value must be between

6.5 and 7.

• Always use the new hose set (fresh water/waste water hose) supplied with the machine.

The machine must be connected to the water supply in accordance with applicable requirements and the regulations of the respective country. If the machine is connected to a newly installed water pipe, the pipe and intake hose must be rinsed thoroughly to ensure that no dirt gets into the machine.

The coffee machine must be connected to an installed drinking water line with a shut-off valve. The machine is connected to the pressure reducing valve on the main water valve (set to

0.3 MPa (3 bar)) using the mounted pressure hose and the G 3/8" screw connection.

If the machine is connected to a drain, the supplied thermally stable drain hose must be connected to the drip tray and the siphon. This hose must be firmly attached to the drain and slanted at a downward angle (so that the water is able to drain).
