Making cocoa
You can make cocoa by adding cocoa
powder to some milk in the receptacle
and lightly stirring it. Proceed as if
frothing milk. The cocoa is heated up
by the hot steam in the frothing
nozzle. The cocoa can also be frothed
up if desired (see section "Froth or heat
up milk").

Descaling - so you can use your
coffee machine for longer
The service life of your coffee machine
can be lengthened with regular descal-
ing. We recommend descaling the
appliance every three months.
1
If you use a permanent filter, remove it
from the swing filter before descaling.
For descaling use a liquid, environmen-
tally-friendly descaling agent availa-
ble everywhere at retail outlets. Only
use it in accordance with the manufac-
turer's instructions. Do not use a for-
mic acid-based descaler.
Descaling the coffee machine
Fill the water tank with water and then
add the descaling agent - and
not
the
other way round! Swing the swing fil-
ter back into the appliance, place the
thermos jug with lid onto the plate
(Figure 1/J). (Please note that the lid
serves to open the anti-drip valve, and
is required to ensure that the water
flows through correctly). Allow the
descaling solution to take effect for
about 15 minutes, then switch on the
appliance and allow the descaling
solution to run through. If necessary
repeat the descaling procedure.
Then repeat the run-through process at
least twice using clear water. Rinse the
thermos jug, lid and swing filter thor-
oughly under running water. Repeat-
edly press the anti-drip valve while
rinsing.
Descaling the steam system
Remove the steam nozzle by turning it
an anti-clockwise direction. Screw on
the descaling hose (Figure 2/F) and
place a cup underneath. Switch on the
steam selector several times for one
minute. Switch off the appliance. If
necessary repeat the descaling proce-
dure. Rinse out the water tank with
clear water to remove any possible
traces of descaling solution.
By switching on the steam switch,
allow clear water to flow through the
steam system again to clean it. Remove
the descaling hose and replace the
steam nozzle.
Cleaning
Caution:
Clean all parts which come
into contact with milk (frothing nozzle,
receptacle including lid and feed pipe,
steam nozzle, flexible hose, drip tray
and drip grid) in normal washing-up
water immediately after use!
Be careful not only to thoroughly
clean all the individual parts of the
frothed milk spout (Figures 14/B, C,
D), but especially also the knob for
regulating the froth (Figure 14/A)
.
During the frothing procedure milk
residues can form in the crevice on the
knob (Figure 14/A "arrow"). As these
residues can have an adverse effect on
the frothing results we suggest that
the part indicated with an "arrow" in
the figure should be cleaned particu-
larly thoroughly. Finally, rinse the parts
with clear water and dry them.
Do
not
clean them in a dishwasher as
this could damage the seals.
The inner filter can be removed for
cleaning. Swing it out to the right as
far as it will go. The inner filter can
