Open the micrometric valve (ref.8) virtually fully.
Turn the main switch/inverter (ref.1a) to position 1 or 2: in the
correct position the blue “phase correct” lamp illuminates (ref.1g).
Check that the water pressure gauge (ref.11) indicates a minimum
pressure of 3.5 bar and that the green “no water pressure” lamp
(ref.1i) is off. Otherwise, activate the pump by means of the water
pump switch (ref.1f). Press the water supplement pushbutton
