The electronic card of push-buttons also is directly connected to the control card. The panel with the labels of product can move backbeing very simple the substitution of the labels for others. A12. Volumetric counter Its function is to measure the quantity of water that is pumped for the elaboration of the espresso coffee A13.

88 VA A18. Electronic board All the models of the Vitale S range have just one PCB board. This CONTROL board facilitates the voltage for the rest of components and it is the one that takes the decisions for the correct functioning of the machine.
2.2. Hydraulic circuit In the following diagram are represented all the elements of the machine that are needed to control and make the water reach the infusion element or the instant beverage beaters. S1. Water deposit S2. Flowmeter S3. Pressure pump S4.
INSTALLATION AND SWITCHING ON 3.1. Unpacking The power supply of the machine requires a socket, or another system, that allows its disconnection. The method used must guarantee the complete disconnection of both poles. Elemental safety requirements: Never touch any mechanisms with wet hands or feet. Never connect or use the machine barefoot.
3.2.2 Electrical connection The machine works with 230 Vac (50 Hz). The installation must have: • An earthed socket • A minimum power rating of 2500 w • The installation site must have a breaker switch and a good earth connection 3.2.3 Instalation of the services counter The machine offers the possibility that there is placed a services meter directly connected...

For machines of 3 buttons: The number of winkings indicates the code of mistake. (Marked with * in the table) they allow some of the mistakes to try to do new services; in this case, the lights of the keys are kept ignited permanently during 10 seconds and during 4 seconds they go out to blink a number of times that the code of mistake indicates.

4. 1 BREWER CLEANNING PROCESS For hygienic motives it is advisable to realize this procedure at least once every 3 months to eliminate the particles of coffee that are in the chamber of the brewer. The type of detergent to be used are Tablets of specific detergent for super automatic coffee machines.
