ENGLISH
Steam froths up the milk to make a cappuccino or a caffe latte, for example, and also heats up
liquids. As you need a higher temperature to produce steam than to make an espresso, the
appliance runs an additional pre-heating phase for steam.
6.1 Frothing milk
Note:
We recommend that you use very cold, fresh pasteurised or UHT milk that has been recently
opened. Do not use untreated milk. After the steam function has been used, the nozzle will be hot, and we
recommend that you wait for a few moments before handling it.
!
Note:
To interrupt the steam function, just press any key. If the nozzle is blocked, clean it out with a fine needle.
The maximum duration for production of steam per cycle is limited to 2 minutes.

PREPARING STEAM

While the screen displays the drink selection menu, press the “steam” key . A screen will inform you
that the appliance is being pre-heated. Once the pre-heating phase has been completed, a message will
ask you to place a container under the steam nozzle. Press the “steam” key again to start generating
steam. A little water will be produced first and then steam will start. Use the same key to stop steam ge-
neration.
Check that the steam
nozzle is correctly fit-
ted.
Pour the milk into your
milk jug. Only half fill it.
Immerse the nozzle in
the milk.
Press the “steam”
key and follow the
instructions on the
screen.
Once your milk is frothy
enough…,
Again press the
“steam” key to stop
the cycle. Be careful,
because the cycle does
not stop immediately.
To remove any
remaining milk from the
steam nozzle, place a
container under the
nozzle and press the
“hot water” key .
Let the steam
escape for at least 10
seconds and then again
press the “hot water”
key to stop the
process.
You can remove the steam nozzle for thorough cleaning. Wash it using a brush
with water and a little non-abrasive washing up liquid. Rinse and dry it.
Before re-fitting, make certain that the air inlet holes are not clogged by milk
residues. Clean out the holes with a needle if necessary.
Caution! Be careful, because the cycle does not stop immediately.
