Questions regarding second hand Diadema

[David8]

So my friend acquired this second hand Diadema coffee machine. It appears to be in working order. Firstly, can anyone help me identify the model?





I'm also trying to track down a manual if anyone can find one.

It's a plumbed in machine, which is the biggest problem for my friend. Can anyone confirm that it can draw water from a bucket or similar without risking damage to the machine?

Google is amazing. I typed in 'BFC 1GVEL' and the very first result was from this forum...

appears to be the correct machine and has a bundle of links and information.
helpfull?

I did find that link as well. The button panel is very slightly different. So I wasn't sure it was the same machine? Maybe just a different manufacture date? I'll have a good read through that thread. Thanks.
