Please note: The tip of the dual frother should be attached finger tight to the rod (Fig. 14b). The top of the rod is flexible. Make sure the rod is properly seated over the steam nozzle, touching the chrome cover (Fig. 4).

Tips for steaming: Leave the sleeve in the "up" position

(Fig. 14). Make sure that the milk does not start boiling. You can stop the steaming process at any time by pushing either steam button. To continue steaming, push either steam button again.

Tips for frothing: Start with the frother in the steaming position ("up") for 10 to 20 seconds, depending how much milk you are working with. This way the milk is first heated. Then push down the cylinder. The sound will change and milk-froth will build up immediately. This way the froth on top of your milk is also warm. If the milk is not warm enough, continue in the steaming position. Attention: When moving the sleeve of the Dual Frother up and down, avoid touching the metal parts since they become hot during operation.

10b. CLEANING THE DUAL FROTHER PLUS

The tip and sleeve of the frother are high precision parts (Fig. 14b). Always keep those parts clean and free of any milk residue. Make sure that all openings and grooves in the tip are free of any milk deposits.

After finishing frothing, remove the Dual Frother Plus and immerse it in a cup with warm water. This is the easiest way to keep the milk from hardening. When replacing the frother push it up and make sure it covers the steam nozzle com-

pletely (Fig. 4, Fig. 14b)

Cleaning the steam nozzle: The Dual Frother PLUS is off (Fig. 4).

• Place a cup underneath the steam nozzle and press the

steam button. Steam will eject any milk droplets. To stop, push the steam button again after one or two seconds.

Tip: if the steam nozzle is blocked by hardened milk, use a needle and loosen up the milk deposit. Then let some steam pass through the steam nozzle.

10c. USING THE FROTHXPRESS PLUS SYSTEM WITH MILK CONTAINER

The frothXpress system lets you produce hot steamed or frothed milk right into your cup. After playing a bit with this attachment you will be able to get exactly the amount of frothed or steamed milk you want in your cup (refer to the video).

Remove the Dual-Frother-PLUS.

Fill the milk container with cold milk.

Assemble the milk container as shown in Fig. 15.

Attach the frothXpress-PLUS system as shown in Fig. 15a. Important: This system siphons milk and mixes it inside the frothXpress with hot steam. It is necessary that all parts are con- nected tightly, otherwise the siphoning process will not work. Frothing Position: The dial points to the upper part of the face (frothing range). Start with the dial pointing to the "-" symbol (12 o'clock). Milk will be siphoned, heated and frothed. For hotter milk, move the lever towards the "+" symbol (See Fig. 15). Steaming Position: The dial points to the lower part of the face (steaming range). Start with the dial pointing to the "-" symbol (6 o'clock). Milk will be siphoned and heated with no froth. For hotter milk move the lever towards the "+" symbol.

Steam Only Position: When the dial points to the steam symbol (3 o'clock), the siphoning is blocked. Only steam will pass through the frother Fig. 16.
