Delivering hot water

1.Make sure the hot water spout is attached correctly (fig. 6).

2.Place a container under the spout (as close as possible to avoid splashes).

3.Press the button (fig. 3).“Hot water”is displayed, together with a progress bar which fills gradually as preparation proceeds.

To interrupt delivery of hot water manually, press the

Change the quantity of water delivered automatically. The machine is set by default to automatically delivery 250 ml of hot water. To modify these quantities, proceed as follows:

1.Position a container under the spout.

2.Press the button again until “Hot water Program

quantity” is displayed, then release the button.

3.When the hot water in the cup reaches the required level,

press the button again.

The machine is now reprogrammed with the new quantity.

Delivering steam

1.Make sure the hot water spout is attached correctly (fig. 6).

2.Fill a container with the liquid to be heated/frothed and immerse the spout/cappuccino maker in the liquid.

3.Press the button: after a few seconds, steam comes out of the cappuccino maker and heats the liquid; “STE- AM” is displayed.

4.When the required temperature is obtained, interrupt

steam delivery by pressing the button again.

(You should not discharge steam for more than 3 minutes at a time).

Important!

Always stop steam delivery before extracting the container containing the liquid to avoid burns from splashes.

Tips for using steam to froth milk

•When choosing the size of the container, bear in mind that the liquid doubles or triples in volume.

•For a richer denser froth, use skimmed or partially skimmed milk at refrigerator temperature (about 5°C).

•For a creamier froth, rotate the container with slow movements in an upward direction.

•To avoid milk with poor froth or large bubbles, always clean the spout as described in the following section.

Cleaning the spout after use

Always clean the spout after use to avoid the build-up of milk residues and prevent the spout from clogging.

1.Place a container under the cappuccino maker and press

the button to deliver a little water (fig. 3).

Stop the flow of water by pressing the button again.

2.Wait a few minutes for the cappuccino maker to cool down, then extract the hot water spout.

Hold the spout with one hand by pressing the button and with the other, turn the cappuccino maker anticlockwise (fig. 24) and pull it downwards to remove it.

3.Also remove the steam nozzle by pulling it downwards (fig. 25).

4.Check the hole shown by the arrow in fig. 25 is not blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin.

5.Wash all parts of the cappuccino maker thoroughly with a sponge and warm water.

6.Reinsert the nozzle and replace the cappuccino maker on the nozzle, turning it and pushing it upwards until it is attached.

CLEANING

Important!

•Do not use solvents, abrasive detergents or alcohol to clean the coffee maker.

With De’Longhi bean to cup coffee makers, you need not use chemical products to clean the machine.

•None of the components can be washed in a dishwasher apart from the milk container (D).

•Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or cof- fee deposits as they could scratch metal or plastic surfac- es.

Cleaning the coffee grounds container

When “EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER” is displayed, the grounds container must be emptied and cleaned.

Until the grounds container has been cleaned, the appliance continues to display the message and coffee cannot be made.
