4. Start up
Locate the Portafilter you wish to use. Your machine came with two- a smaller, single portafilter
(shownhere on the right) as well as the larger, double portafilter (left). The single is meant to create
about one ounce of espresso at a time, and the double creates about two ounces- a double. The double
portafilter can also be used to make two singles at one time.
The first time you lock the portafilter in place you might find that it takes quite a force to get it tight.
The proper position should have the portafilter handle pointing roughly straight towards you, perpendicular
to the front of the machine. This properly seats the gasket and shower screen into place. Leave the
portafilter in place while the machine is warming up. This allows the portafilter to warm up the same as
the rest of the machine.
Place a few cups that you will be using on top of the machine. The heat from the machine’s normal
operation will preheat the cups which serves to keep your coffee beverage warm as you enjoy it.
CAUTION: Do not place items on the top of the machine that are prone to drip or spill or might be
sensitive to heat. Temperatures on top of the machine reach about 63° C (145° F).
4.1. Start up: plug the machine
Plug the machine into a surge suppressor capable of handling 10 amper (not included). The outlet must be
properly grounded and should be protected with a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter).
Make sure that the Manual Control Lever if in the fully-down position, pushed back nearly against the
front of the machine. Turn the Power switch to position ON. The Power Lamp on the far right side of the
front panel will illuminate, indicating that the machine is getting power.
CAUTION: Electrical surges can damage the Vibiemme Domobar electronics. Surges can also damage
the heating element. Damage caused by electrical surges is not covered by the warranty.
4.2. Start up: turn the machine ON
After turning the Power switch to position ON you should hear the pump begin to run. The sound of the
pump indicates that the electronic water level control has begun to fill the boiler.
When the boiler is filled to the level determined by the water level sensor, the autofill electronics will turn
the pump off. When the machine arrived the boiler was empty, so it may take as long as two minutes to
fill the boiler. After the pump stops, check and refill the Water Reservoir as it will have had about half
of its contents pumped into the boilers.
You will know that the boiler is filled to the proper level because the pump will stop operating.
As the machine begins to warm up you may notice that there is a slight hissing sound coming from inside
the machine. This is normal. It is the antivacuum valve. This valve opens as the machine cooled off the last
time it was used to allow air to be drawn into the boiler to prevent a high vacuum being formed which can
damage the machine. When the machine starts up it takes a little pressure to close this valve, and until it
closes completely it may hiss slightly.
Wait about five minutes for the boiler to gain some heat. You should notice that the Boiler Pressure
Gauge is indicating that pressure is rising, and when it gets into its operating range you will hear the
pressurestat clicking on and off as it cycles in response to the boiler pressure.
CAUTION: While the boilers are coming up to pressure for the first time you should stay close by to
monitor its progress to be sure that all is as it should be.
WARNING: The Grouphead and other external parts will get hot enough to cause burns.
Use caution when using the machine and if there are any small children in the home (or adults
not accustomed to such appliances) make sure that they are aware of the dangers. Shiny chrome
surfaces invite curious hands!
