First start (boiler fill) procedure
Turn the main switch to position “1”, allow the steam boiler to auto-fill, confirm boiler fill was successful and has not timed out by referencing the water level on display:
If the machine has timed out, cycle the machine off/on (position “1”) again and allow it to auto-fill. If the machine is still timing out, shut the machine down and re-check the inlet water line/ filtration system and confirm water flow to the machine.
When the machine has successfully auto-filled the steam boiler, turn on all groups and confirm water flow. Once water is flowing from groups, turn them off and switch to position “2”.
The machine will began to heat
