4. Water Installation Rules

WATER REQUIREMENTS
Water used in coffee machines must be suitable for human consumption (see laws and regulations in force).
Check on the machine's water inlet that the pH and chloride values comply with current law.
If the values do not fall within the limits, an appropriate water-treatment device must be inserted (respecting the local laws
and compatible with the machine).
If the machine uses water with a hardness exceeding 8 °f (4.5 °d), a specific maintenance plan must be implemented
according to the hardness detected and machine usage.
WARNING
Only use the supplied parts for installation. If other parts are installed, they must be new (unused
pipes and gaskets for the water connection) and they must be permitted for contact with water
suitable for human consumption (according to local laws in force).
WATER CONNECTIONS
Place the appliance on a flat surface and stabilize it by adjusting and securing the feet.
Hook up the water connections as shown in the Illustrations chapter, Figure 3, respecting the hygiene, water safety, and
anti-pollution laws in the country of installation.
Note: If the water pressure can rise above 87 psi (6 bar), install a pressure reducer set at 29÷43 psi (2÷3 bar). See
Illustrations chapter, Figure 4.
Water draining tube: place the end of the water draining tube in a drain with a siphon for inspection and cleaning.
IMPORTANT: The curves of the water-draining tube must NOT bend as shown in Illustrations chapter, Figure 5.
ATTENTION: This equipment is to be installed with adequate backflow protection to comply with the applicable
federal, state or local plumbing codes having jurisdiction.
