3 To avoid any residual water mixing in
with the milk when frothing, the water
should be drained off beforehand. To
do this, place a container under the
steam nozzle and turn the knob for
steam and hot water (Fig. 9) to position
until steam emission starts. Then
turn the knob back to position .
0 Pour low-fat, cold milk into a mug
which must be small enough to fit
under the steam nozzle.
3 The milk should be cold. You should
also use a cold mug, preferably a stain-
less steel one, which should not be
rinsed beforehand in hot water.
0 Swing out the steam nozzle and hold
the mug under the steam nozzle so
that the nozzle opening is just
immersed in the milk (Fig. 25).
1 Attention! Risk of impurities from
dried on milk residues in the steam
nozzle. Take care not to immerse the
steam nozzle in the milk far enough to
cover the air intake opening at the top
of the steam nozzle. Otherwise milk
can be sucked into the nozzle and
cause impurities in the steam nozzle.
0 Turn the knob for steam and hot water
(Fig. 9) to the position . The display
shows the steam process («STEAM»).
The milk is frothed.
3 To obtain a creamier froth, slowly move
the container upwards. Froth the milk
to at least twice its volume.
3 You should not discharge steam for
more than two minutes at a time.
0 To end the frothing, turn the knob for
steam and hot water (Fig. 9) to the
position and then remove the mug.
The display once again indicates readi-
ness for steaming ( «STEAM -
TURN KNOB FOR STEAM».
1 Caution! Danger of scalding from hot
milk spray! Switch the steam off before
removing the mug with the frothed
milk.
0 Exit the steam mode by pressing the
"Steam" key (Fig. 24) or wait approx.
120 sec. for the machine to automati-
cally return to the coffee mode; the
display shows «PLEASE WAIT…».
Now the machine is once again ready
for making coffee; the last selected
coffee setting is shown in the display.
0 Each time you have frothed milk, let
off some hot water through the nozzle
for a short time by turning the knob
for steam and hot water (Fig. 6) to the
position.
This is necessary to prevent milk resi-
dues drying inside the nozzle, and
thereby blocking it. Use a suitable con-
tainer to catch the water. During this
process the display shows «HOT
WATER».
0 Then return the knob to the position
; the last selected coffee setting is
shown in the display.
10.1 Cleaning the steam nozzle
Important: To guarantee hygiene, you
are recommended to follow this proce-
dure each time you make frothed milk,
to avoid milk stagnating in the nozzle.
0 Turn the knob for steam and hot water
clockwise as far as it will go to the
position . Wait a couple of minutes
for the steam nozzle to cool down.
0 Then with one hand hold the swivel
pipe handle firm and with the other
disengage the bayonet connection of
the steam nozzle by turning it slightly
clockwise. Remove the steam nozzle by
pulling it downwards (Fig. 26).
0 Remove the inner part of the steam
nozzle from the swivel pipe by pulling
it downwards.
0 Carefully wash the steam nozzle and
the inner part in warm water.
0 Make sure the two holes shown in fig.
27 are not blocked. If necessary, pierce
them with a pin and clean them.
0 Replace the inner part by pushing it
slightly upwards onto the swivel pipe.
0 Replace the steam nozzle by pushing it
upwards and turning it anticlockwise.
