7.3. Starting up (Fig.6)
Model S1
● Turn on the water supply tap 2 (Fig.5).
● Turn on main switch 1.
The pump for boiler filling will activate .
Orange LED (8) ON
● When the level is reached, the pump stops, the
LED switches OFF, turn the esistance switch 2;
water is heated in the boiler; then, operate the unit
until the water is dispensed.
● Wait for the machine to reach its working pressure,
gauge needle 7, and to reach the correct thermal
balance.
Model E1
● Turn on the water supply tap 2 (Fig.5).
● Turn on main switch 1 and resistance switch 2.
The pump for boiler filling will activate
Orange LED (8) ON
● Only after reaching the level (orange LED (8) ON)
the resistances for water heating in the boiler are
powered,then activate the group until water comes
out.
● During the heating phase the leds of the keys
switch on in sequence from left to right until the
working pressure is reached.
Only when the rated pressure is reached it is
possible to adjust the dosesl.
Model S1 TANK with autonomous tan
(Fig.7)
● Open the lid on the water-tank and check that the
softener A has been inserted in the dip pipe B;
● Ensure that the air trap C has been inserted in the

● Turn on main switch 1; the boiler is filled and is
activated.
Once the boiler is filled,turn resistance switch 2;
the water is heated; then, operate the unit until the
water is dispensed.
● Wait for the machine to reach its working pressure,
gauge needle 7 - Fig.6, and to reach the correct
thermal balance.
