10 PRODUCING HOT WATER

• Press the button (fig. 17).
The appliance displays:
HOT WATER
and hot water is delivered from the water spout into the container below (you should not run off hot water
for more than two minutes at a time). To stop the flow, press the button. Once the set quantity of hot
water has been reached, delivery stops automatically.
11 CHANGING THE QUANTITY OF HOT WATER
The appliance is factory preset to automatically deliver 8.5 oz. of hot water. To change this quantity, proceed
as follows:
•
Make sure the water spout is attached (fig. 4).
• Position a container under the spout (fig. 3).
• Press the button (fig. 17) for at least 8 seconds until you hear a BEEP, then release. The appliance dis-
plays:
HOT WATER PROGRAM QUANTITY
and hot water is delivered from the water spout.
• When the hot water in the cup reaches the required level, press the button to memorize the new
amount. The appliance emits a double beep. (You should not run off hot water for more than two minutes
at a time).
12 PREPARING CAPPUCCINOS (FROTHED MILK AND COFFEE)
• Select the required coffee strength to make the cappuccino by pressing the OK/ button (fig. 1).
• Remove the frothed milk lid from the milk container.
• Fill the container with about 3.5 oz. of milk for each cappuccino to be prepared (fig. 18). Never exceed the
MAX level (corresponding to about 25 oz.) marked on the container.
It is best to use fat-free or low-fat milk at refrigerator temperature (about 41°F/5°C).
• Make sure the milk intake tube is correctly inserted in the rubber washer on the bottom of the milk con-
tainer lid (fig. 19), then reposition the lid in the milk container and turn it counter-clockwise as far as it will
go.
• Move the pointer on the milk container to position 2 (fig. 20).
• Remove the hot water spout (fig. 21) and attach the milk container to the nozzle. You will hear a BEEP (fig.
22).
• Position the milk tube as shown in fig. 23 and then place a sufficiently large cup under the coffee and milk
spouts.
• Press the CAPPUCCINO button (fig. 24). The button lights up and the appliance displays:
CAPPUCCINO: CONTAINER POINTER IN POSITION 2
Make sure the pointer on the container lid is positioned on the same number indicated on the display. After
a few seconds, the frothed milk is delivered from the milk spout into the cup below. Milk delivery stops
automatically, then the coffee is delivered.
