13. Hot Water
The Café TS can produce hot water for tea or Americanos by using the steam wand.
Always make sure the steam wand is well cleaned and free of dried milk deposits before
making hot water.
a) Turn the steam control knob to the open position. Place a cup under the steam
wand prior to pressing the Hot Water indicator.
b) Press Hot Water indicator, the 1-Cup, 2-Cup and Steam indicator lights will turn OFF
and the Hot Water indicator will start flashing, hot water will flow from the steam
wand. The timer will start counting up while the cup fills. When the cup is filled with
the desired amount of hot water, press Hot Water indicator again and hot water
stops flowing immediately. Turn the steam control knob to the closed position.
c) Repeat above procedure if more hot water is needed.
14. Cleaning & Maintenance
To avoid injury, always turn OFF and unplug the machine before cleaning and allow
machine to cool down. Wipe the outside of the machine with a clean, damp cloth. Do not
immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners
or alcohol/solvent-based cleaners to clean the machine. Use only gentle dishwashing
liquid and warm water. After each use, rinse out the water tank and empty before
replacing back onto the machine.
Cleaning the Steam Wand
It is important to clean the steam wand immediately after each use. If the steam wand is
blocked due to milk deposit build up, it is helpful to remove the blockage by cleaning the
steam wand and all parts. Make sure machine is turned OFF and steam wand has fully
cooled down before removing parts.
a) Remove the stainless steel frothing sleeve from the steam wand and rinse under
warm, running water. If dried milk remains on the frothing sleeve, you may clean with
gentle dishwashing liquid and warm water. Rinse well and dry all parts completely
before reassembling.
b) Wipe the steam wand with a damp cloth. If milk blocks the steam wand, use a
needle to clean the opening of the steam wand until no dried milk deposits remain.
c) Place the stainless steel frothing sleeve upward back onto steam wand pushing it
tightly in place. The steam wand must be assembled correctly to ensure proper
frothing of milk. Ensure the small hole on the frothing sleeve is at the top while the
notches on the frothing sleeve are on the bottom (Fig. 6).
Cleaning the Drip Tray
a) The drip tray should be emptied each time the machine is used or when the red
overflow indicator in the drip tray rises above the drip tray grid.
b) When removing a drip tray full of water, carefully hold the drip tray by both sides
and slowly lift up and away from the machine. Remove the drip tray grid and slowly
pour water from drip tray into the sink.
c) Rinse both the drip tray and grid. If necessary, both the drip tray grid and drip tray
can be hand washed with warm water and a gentle dishwashing liquid. Rinse well
and dry completely before replacing the drip tray and grid back on the machine.
