Manual Adjustment Of The Brewing Pressure; First Use - ECM Synchronika Bedienungsanleitung

Bedienungsanleitung / User Manual SYNCHRONIKA
Important
Please make sure that only your authorized ECM-dealer connects the machine to the water supply
and installs the pressure regulator and shut off valve.
To avoid calcification of the machine a water-softener is recommended.
The machine may only be descaled by your specialised dealer because a partial disassembly of the
boiler and the tubing may be necessary to prevent the system from being blocked by lime residues.
A late descaling can cause substantial damage to the machine.
The residual water is disposed off periodically by emptying out the water drip tray. Alternatively, you can hook the
machine directly up to a water drainage. Please proceed as follows: Remove the sealing screw in the drip tray and
fasten the drainage container to the rim below the drip tray. Connect a suitable hose (not included with delivery) to
the drip tray and to an already installed drainage syphon.

4.4 Manual adjustment of the brewing pressure

The brewing pressure of the machine can be adjusted manually, without opening the machine, through an adjusting
screw at the bottom of the machine. This adjustment must be carried out by expert specialists.

FIRST USE

5.1 First use
Read the instruction manual carefully prior to operating the machine.
Prior to starting the machine, check if:
 the steam and hot water valves are closed.
 the machine is switched off. (Power switch in the vertical position.)
 the power cord is disconnected.
 the drip tray is inserted accurately.
Now you can start up your machine:
Machine in use with water tank (steam/ hot water boiler activated)
1 Please make sure that the valve at the bottom panel of the machine and the switch behind the drip tray are in
the correct position (see chapter 4.3, image 3 and 4).
2 Open the cup warming tray. Take out the water tank and rinse it thoroughly.
3 Fill the water tank with fresh water deficient in lime, place it back into the water tank guides and close the cup
warming tray.
4 Plug the machine into an electrical outlet and position the brew lever upwards.
5 Turn the machine on by placing the metal switch in the upper position. The green control lamp and the PID
display will come on and a pump noise will be heard. The coffee boiler and the steam/ hot water boiler are now
filled with water simultaneously.
6 As soon as water is released through the brew group, position the brew lever back downward. If there is still a
pump noise, the filling of the steam/ hot water boiler is still being completed.
7 If the pump stops and the PID display turns off while the boilers are filled, you have to refill fresh water in the
water tank.
8 If there is enough water in the water tank again, the pump starts to operate again.
9 As soon as both boilers are filled with water, the pump will become quiet. The PID display and the orange
control lamp will illuminate. Both boilers are now being heated in succession whereby the coffee boiler has
priority.
10 The PID display will show the current temperatures of both boilers alternately (see chapter 3.3).
11 The machine is ready for coffee preparation as soon as the PID display indicates the pre-set nominal
temperature of 93°C (factory setting). The machine is ready for steam/ hot water dispension as soon as the PID
display indicates the pre-set nominal temperature of 123°C (factory setting) or the boiler pressure gauge
indicates a value of about 1.0-1.5 bars.
12 Manual boiler venting is not necessary because the Synchronika contains a professional
anti-vacuum valve, which automatically vents the boiler during the heat-up phase. This venting process is done
by way of the brew group, directly into the drip tray. Caution, steam forms!
13 The machine is now ready for use.
