4.1 Preparation for installation

• Place the machine on an even and stable surface. You can regulate the height by adjusting
the feet of the machine.
• Never place the machine on hot surfaces.

4.2 Electrical connection

• Make sure that the local main supply voltage corresponds to the information given on the
type plate on the front panel of the espresso machine.
• Plug the machine into a grounded socket only and do not leave it unattended.
• Do not roll or bend the power cord.
• Do not use an extension cord/ do not use a multiple socket.

FIRST USE

5.1 First use
Read the instruction manual carefully before 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 lower position.)
• the power cord is disconnected.
• the drip tray is inserted accurately.
Now you can start up your machine:
1 Remove the cup warming tray.
2 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 Insert the plug into the wall socket. Move the power switch into the upper position. The machine is now
on.
5 The green control lamp lights up.
6 The pump will fill the boiler of the machine with fresh water.
7 As soon as the boiler is filled, there will be no more pump noise; the orange control lamp is now on. As
soon as the fresh water sinks down to a certain level in the water tank, the machine is switched off and
the light of the orange control lamp switches off. Now refill fresh water. The machine heats up
automatically.
8 Because a large amount of water is required for the first filling of the boiler, the water tank has to be
refilled with fresh water.
9 Wait until the boiler pressure gauge indicates approx. 1.0-1.25 bar.
10 A manual "boiler ventilation" is not necessary because the PROFITEC PRO 500 is equipped with a
professional depression valve that ventilates the boiler during the heat-phase.
11 Move the brew group lever into the upper position and dispense approx. 250 ml of water. This way, the
heat exchanger will be filled with water and the circulation of the water in the thermosyphon system begins.
12 Move the brew group lever into the lower position. Refill the water tank.
13 The machine is now ready for use. Put the cups on the cup heater tray in order to preheat them and
enjoy your coffee.
The PROFITEC PRO 500 has a fuse to prevent the machine from overfilling.
It is possible that the machine does not heat up when using it for the first time or when
dispensing large quantities of water over the hot water valve. In this case, please switch the
machine off and on.
