5.1 REDUCING STEAM BOILER
PRESSURE
Before to work on steam boiler and relative
parts, it is mandatory to reduce its inner
pressure.
The E1 PRIMA, compared to the other tra-
ditional machines, does not have manual
steam lever, but electronic one.
Hence, to reduce steam boiler pressure it is
needed to run a software procedure, that
is called EMPTY BOILER procedure and it is
explained in Chapter 9.
Keep the procedure working till no more
steam is coming out from the boiler and
then switch the machine OFF.
5.2 EMPTYING THE STEAM
BOILER
If the previous paragraph with the EMPTY
BOILER procedure has been followed, most
of the contained water has been already
extracted. In this way, when the boiler will
be removed, only a small quantity of water
will pour out.
In the case it is preferred to extract the total
amount of the water, or the EMPTY BOILER
procedure has not been followed since
the machine was cold, it is suggestable to
extract the water by accessing the boiler
from the top (e.g. by removing the anti-suc-
tion valve) and by using a long syringe.
