I've got an AZKOYEN AZ04/M coffee machine which has a power knob with 4 positions. OFF, TEST, 1 & 2. It works fine and makes coffee perfectly well on either setting 1 or setting 2. I can't find the manual anywhere and wondered if anyone knows the difference. Using a power meter on the socket, it seems to use the same amount of watts on either setting. Is it a fast heat up or cleaning setting? 1 cup or two cup? Perhaps these type of settings are common to other brands of professional espresso machine. Any help gratefully received! Thanks.
On other machines with the position switches, 2 turns on the whole machine (elements heatup and groups work). Position 1 turns on only the groups but the machine never heats up. I have never worked on an azkoyen, but the test switch could be for the the board and the autofill circuits, instead of the technician turning the machine to 1 to test those functions, they provided a test position on the switch.
The machine has 2 heating elements. Setting it to 1 only powers 1 element. Setting it on 2 powers 2. Setting 1 takes about 1 hour to heat boiler. Setting 2 takes about 30 min. Once the machine gets up to temp, Setting 1 should be sufficient. But if you use the machine every minute, keep on Setting 2.
