wand has a commercial style 360° ball joint.
note for frothing milk: About half of the steam wand must be

immersed in the milk.

immersed in the milk, the escaping steam can squirt milk out of the jug.
important: Make sure that the milk does not run over the edge of

frothing jug.

wArning:

not Take the steam wand out of the milk, as long as

steam escapes. Otherwise hot milk may splash out of the frothing jug.

Turn the steam dial always back to the starting position (OFF position)

conds after turning off the steam function a short burst of steam from the

steam wand occurs. Be careful not to scald yourself on the hot steam.
note: Hot steam may escape or hot water may drip from the group

head and the swivel steam wand. Therefore always ensure that the

swivel steam wand points towards the drip tray when not in use.
