Important note for technicians: 

The WMF espresso must be installed by more than one technician due to its highly weight. 
When lifting the machine, be careful to lift only by the bottom pan and not the rear cover 
of the machine.  

 

Connect the water infeed 

 

Connect a water filter if one is needed. (For details, see the next chapter)  

 

Connect the drain hose to a permanent drain tube using angle 33 2165 8000. 

 

All drains must be sloped.  

 

Connect to the power supply 

 

Switch on the coffee machine

Recommended water filter 

A WMF water filter is recommended for carbonate hardness above 5 °dKH. 
For the WMF espresso, the –bestmax XL– water filter is recommended in the standard WMF price list. 
After measuring the carbonate hardness with (non-expired) test kit, cut off according to the capacity table (see the User manual included with the filter).
