PREPARING CAPPUCCINO
The steam can be used for warming the cups, heating
liquids or preparing hot frothed milk for cappuccino
coffee.
Remove the
fi
lter holder before using the steam, as
this will stop the inside of the
fi
lter from becoming
overpressurized.
1. Fill cold milk into a jug.
Make sure that the ON/OFF button (9) has been
switched on (Fig. 7).
Make sure that the espresso/steam button (10) is
set to the “steam”
position. When lamp 15 turns
green, the right temperature for steam will have been
reached.
2. Place a container below the steam nozzle (3) and turn
the steam regulator (12) in an anti-clockwise direction
(Fig. 4). After any water left in the nozzle has been
cleared out, close it. Insert the nozzle into the jug
of milk and turn the steam regulator back on so that
steam comes out (Fig. 5).
3. Move the jug up and down slightly. Avoid letting
the liquid go beyond the end of the nozzle as this will
stop air from being drawn in. Place the steam pipe just
above the surface of the milk in order to make it frothy.
Add the frothed-up milk to the coffee.
IMPORTANT:
After making froth clean off any milk left
stuck to the nozzle. Giving it a further short burst of
steam will help to clean it.
4. Clean the steam nozzle regularly with the appliance
unplugged and cold (Fig. 6).
Remove the sleeve (Fig. 6, 3a) from the steam pipe
(3) and clean out the nozzle with soft damp cloth. The
sleeve can be washed under running tap water.
SWITCHING FROM CAPPUCCINO TO COFFEE
If you decide to make coffee again after having used
the steam function, the water in the machine will be too
hot for brewing coffee. To bring the temperature down
press the espresso/steam button (10) to the “espresso”
position to switch off the steam production, allowing
the coffee maker to cool down.
Now, press the pump control button (11) and, at the
same time, turn the steam regulator (12) on, allowing
water to come through the steam nozzle until lamp 15
lights up again.
Turn the steam regulator off.
HOW TO MAKE HOT WATER FOR TEA
OR HOT DRINKS
1. Press the ON/OFF button (9). Lamp 14 will light up.
When lamp 15 turns green, the coffee maker will have
reached the right temperature.
2. Place a cup below the steam nozzle (3) and press
the pump control button (11). Then turn the steam
regulator (12) on so that hot water comes through the
steam nozzle.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
Make sure that the coffee maker is unplugged and cold
before attempting to clean it.
The detachable parts can be washed in soapy water.
Do not immerse the coffee maker in water or any other liquid.
With a damp cloth periodically clean out the area
where the
fi
lter holder sits, so as to remove any coffee
that may have become stuck to it.
Be careful when removing the
fi
lter holder as there may
be hot water left inside it.
In order to prolong the life of the machine, do not re
fi
t
the
fi
lter holder if the coffee maker is going to be stored
away for prolonged periods. Do not clean any of the
parts in the dishwasher.
DESCALING
The coffee maker should be descaled regularly. To do
this,
fi
ll the tank with a mix of three parts water to one
part vinegar.
Operate the appliance for two cycles, including the
steam pipe.
Following this, and to
fl
ush out any traces of vinegar,
operate the coffee maker for a further two cycles but
with water only.
In order to obtain optimal results, it is also possible to
add descaling liquid instead of vinegar into the water
tank of the machine. To clean the coffee maker with
this descaling liquid you must read carefully the
instructions given by the manufacturer of the
descaling product.
POSSIBLE FAULTS AND THEIR SOLUTIONS
The espresso coffee is not hot enough:
- Warm the cups up beforehand.
- Descale the coffee maker.
The
fl
ow rate is reduced considerably:
- Try putting less coffee in the
fi
lter.
- Use a coarser ground coffee, or pack the coffee down less.
- Descale the coffee maker.
The coffee spills out over the
fi
lter holder:
- Make sure that the
fi
lter holder is
fi
tted correctly.
- Clean the seal or replace it if necessary.
No coffee comes out or very slowly:
- Make sure that the water tank is
fi
lled and
fi
tted
correctly.
- Make sure that the
fi
lter holder is
fi
tted correctly.
No steam comes out:
- Make sure that the water tank is
fi
lled and
fi
tted
correctly.
- Make sure that the steam nozzle is not blocked.
The pump makes too much noise:
- Make sure that the water tank is
fi
lled and
fi
tted
correctly.
