CHAPTER 5 – PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING THE MACHINE
5.1. PRECAUTIONS WHEN DISPENSING STEAM
ATTENTION: In order to avoid damage to the
boiler please do not produce steam for
longer than 30-60 seconds without turning
off the steam release knob.
Always re-fill the boiler with water after
steam production (see par. 5.1.1.).
After producing steam, push the same button
again (so the button is no longer depressed).
NOTE: there is a built in safety device which
will prevent the machine from dispensing
water until the temperature of the water has
dropped from 125 degrees back to 95
degrees. This is to prevent the machine from
burning the coffee whilst the temperature of
the water remains too high.
5.1.1. Refilling water in boiler
After a prolonged use of dispensing steam it
may be necessary to refill the boiler with water.
To do this make sure the steam release knob
is fully closed and the steam button is off.
Wait 2-3 minutes to allow the temperature in
the boiler to drop from 125 to 95 degrees and then
push the water button which will start the pump
and this will re-fill the boiler.
NOTE: The water button will not work until
the temperature in the boiler has dropped after
dispensing steam.
NOTE: If you want to use the steam for long
periods of time then it is recommended that you
stop every max 60 seconds and refill the boiler
with water. This simple safeguard is necessary to
ensure that the boiler does not run dry.
