9 - PREPARATION OF OTHER DRINKS
9.1 - MILK, CAPPUCCINO AND OTHER HOT DRINKS
Warning ! Burns danger ! Some sprinkling of hot water can arrive at
the beginning of the supply.
The endowment tube can reach high temperature: avoid to touch it
directly with the hands.
Before heating any drink, let a small amount of steam out of the ste-
am tube (
10
) carefully. Turn the steam tap knob (
7
) anticlock-wise, to
eliminate any condensation that may have formed inside the boiler.
Pour the liquid to be prepared into a container, immerse the steam
delivery nozzle (
10
) into it and slowly turn the steam tap knob (
7
)
anticlockwise; subsequently open the tap completely, so as to pro-
duce a great outflow of steam and bring the liquid to the boiling
state. To obtain a thick milk froth for cappuccino, we recommend to
use a high and narrow container, only half-filled with milk.Immerse
the steam delivery nozzle (
10
) until you touch the bot-tom of the
container and then bring the milk almost to the boiling state.Move
the container up and down alternatively with the tap open, until you
touch the surface of the milk for a few seconds, until the froth has
formed. To make a cappuccino, add the hot whipped milk to the hot
coffee in the cappuccino cup.

When the machine is ready to brew coffee, move the steam jet over
the tank (

Operate the steam lever switch (
22
).
When the ligh (
17
) is on, the machine will be ready to supply steam.
N.B. Do not produce steam for more than 60 seconds.
Put the liquid in a tank, dip the steam jet (
10
) in the liquid and turn
slowly the steam tap handle (
7
) anticlockwise; then open completely
the handle to avoid the exit of a big quantity of steam boiling the
liquid.
To obtain the milk froth for the cappuccino, pour the milk to be prepa-
red in a tall and narrow tank until is it is half full, immerse the steam
pipe (
24
) until it touches the bottom of the tank and boil the milk.
Move the tank up and down with the tap opened and allow the ste-
am jet to touch the surface of the milk for a few seconds and obtain
the froth.
To obtain the cappuccino, add the hot and frothed milk in the coffee
prepared in the cappuccino cup.
At the end turn clockwise the steam handle to stop the steam supply
and take away the milk jug.
Put the switch steam lever (
21

N.B. to prepare immediately an other coffee, fill up the
boiler with water and bring it to correct temperature.
Otherwise the coffee could be burnt.

the control handwheel of the frother, in order to obtain the desired
froth thickness.

10 - MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING OPERATIONS
10.1 - STEAM DELIVERY NOZZLE CLEANING
To avoid altering the taste of the drinks to be heated and to prevent
the holes of the end part of the steam delivery nozzle getting clog-
ged, clean carefully the nozzle after each use.
10.2 - CAPPUCCINO AUTOMATIC CLEANING
After each brewing, the Cappuccino Automatic has to be cleaned of
the milk residues. Immerse the aspiration tube (
21
) in a container full
of water, proceed as normal cappuccino preparation, allowing the
dirty water to flow into a suitable container.
10.3 - BREWING UNIT AND JET CLEANING
Remove the filter-holder from the brewing unit. Place the provided
seal inside the filter, pour a spoonful of
coffee-machine detergent powder and fit the filter holder into the
brewing unit to be cleaned. Start the brewing unit using the unit
control (
11-20
) and interrupt the delivery after approximately 4-5
seconds.
Start and interrupt the delivery alternatively for approximately one
minute, to allow the removal of coffee and scale deposits. Remove
the seal and start the delivery system several times to rinse the unit.
Deliver a few serving of coffees so as to eliminate any unpleasant
taste from the jets and from the brewing unit.
After a long period of hot water stagnation within the pipes, let the
water flow vertically so as to remove any deposit.
10.4 - FILTER AND FILTER-HOLDER CLEANING
Check frequently the filter holes to remove any coffee deposits.
Prepare about a litre of boiling water with four teaspoons of coffee-
machine detergent in a suitable container, and immerse the filter ba-
skets and filter-holders in this solution for 20-30 minutes; then rinse
thoroughly under running water.
10.5 - DRAIN TRAY CLEANING
Remove the drain tray grid (
8
) and pull out the lower drain tray (
13
)
in order to clean it from coffee powder residues.
10.6 - CASING CLEANING
Use a damp, non abrasive cloth, without alcohol or solvents, to
avoid damaging the sides, the base and any painted parts.
