• To protect against electric shock do not immerse power cord, power plug or appliance in
water or any other substance.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced phy-
sical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsi-
ble for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the appliance.
• The appliance has a short cord as a safety precaution to prevent personal injury or pro-
perty damage resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with the cord. Do not
allow children to be near or use this appliance without close adult supervision. If you must
use a longer cord or an extension cord when using the appliance, the cord must include a
3-prong grounding plug. It must be arranged so it will not drape or hang over the edge of a
countertop, tabletop or surface area where it can be pulled on by young children or tripped
over. To prevent electric shock, personal injury or fire, the electrical rating of the extension
cord you use must be the same or more than the wattage of the appliance (wattage is mar-
ked on the underside of the appliance).
• This appliance is recommended for household use only. Do not use this appliance for
anything other than its intended use. Do not use in moving vehicles or boats. Do not use
outdoors. Misuse may cause injury.
CAuTiOn: To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to proper-
ly earthed outlets only.
High Temperatures – Risk of Burns
• The Design Espresso Plus is designed for brewing espresso and coffee.
Therefore, some components, such as the grouphead, the portafilter and the
steam wand become very hot during operation and hot water or steam escape.
• Do not touch during operation and shortly thereafter hot parts (eg. grouphead, portafilter,
swivel steam wand with frothing attachment). Even after switching off the appliance and the
corresponding parts are very hot for some time.
• Before each use, ensure that the filter is properly and securely inserted in the grouphead,
and the selection switch is positioned to standby (center). If the selector switch is positioned
to the right (in brewing position), after preheating, hot water emerges from the group head.
If the selector switch is positioned to the left (steam/hot water), hot steam or hot water
(depending on the setting) emerges from the steam wand. Make sure that the black folding
switch is in the correct position: steam or hot water.
• Hot steam may escape or hot water may drip from the grouphead and the swivel steam
wand. Therefore always ensure that the swivel steam wand points towards the drip tray
when not in use. Never hold your hands or other body parts or moisture and heat-sensitive
items onto or below the portafilter, grouphead, swivel steam wand with frothing attachment
when the appliance is turned on.
• Make sure that during frothing milk no liquid can run from the top into the black attach-
ment of the steam wand. This way you will not be able to froth the milk.
• The machine is purged automatically after generating steam, to do this, turn the selector
switch to the standby position (center).
