2.2 Connecting the Water Supply
1. The machine should be situated within 1 metre of a drinking water supply
from a rising main, terminating with a W.R.C. approved 15mm
compression stop-tap.
2. The water supply should comply with both the Statutory Instrument
No.1147 - “Water, England and Wales” and The Water Supply (Water
Quality) Regulations 1989. Water pressure at the stop-tap must be within
the limits 2 - 6 Bar (200 Kpa - 600 Kpa) or as specified by the filter
manufacturer when a water filter is fitted.
3. Connect the flexi-hose supplied with the machine to the stopcock ensuring
that the seal supplied is fitted correctly. Flush the system (several gallons)
before connecting the machine.
4. Connect the hose to the inlet valve located on the rear of the machine. Ensure
that the seal is correctly fitted. Ensure that all water supply fittings are tight.
5. Freshbrew & B2C Machines: Genesis machines fitted with a CoEx®
brewer must be connected to the water supply via a water filter. This filter
must be of food grade quality and able to remove temporary hardness
(scale), heavy metals (lead, copper, iron, cadmium), chlorine and any
organic pollutant's/discolouration. Crane Merchandising Systems
recommend and supply the Brita AquaQuell Compact water filter.
Note! If the machine is connected to the
water supply and used without a water filter as
specified above, the warranty will be void.
6. Turn on the water supply at the stop tap and check for leaks. Prime the water
filter (where fitted) following the instructions supplied by the filter
manufacturer.
2.3 Connecting the Electricity Supply
Safety First! The machine must be earthed. On no account should it be
earthed only to the water supply pipe.
The machine must be connected to a 230 Volt 50Hz 13 amp fused switched socket
outlet, installed to the latest edition of the IEE regulations, using a 3 pin BS approved
13 amp fused plug.
Important! If the mains lead becomes damaged in any way it must be replaced by a
special lead available from the manufacturer.
