milk is ready following the direction of rotation of the device (3) as shown in (Fig. 9). During steam dispensing the sound signal may go on and off, indicating that the boiler is maintaining its temperature. The steam jet shuts off automatically as the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device is brought back into its original position by pushing it back using the milk container (Fig.10).

-Once steam dispensing has finished, move the power lever (7) back to the upright position (Fig. 7) and, using a sponge, clean all residues of the liquid heated from the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device.

-If the steam pressure should be insufficient for frothing the milk, fill the boiler again following the procedures described in the paragraph “Successive use”.

For the best results, we recommend that you prepare the coffee before frothing the milk.

If the coffee has not already been prepared:

- Fill the boiler tank (as explained in the section entitled ”Making cof- fee”) and move the power lever (7) to the pre-heat position (Fig. 5). The indicator light (8) will switch on.

- When the front indicator light switches off, indicating that that tem- perature inside the boiler tank has reached the optimum level, the appliance will emit a sound signal. Then place the container of milk to be foamed (or liquid to be heated) under the MAXI CAPPUCCI- NO device (3) and press the steam button (4) until the liquid is hea- ted or foamed as required (Fig. 11). To make this operation easier, position the device in the fixed position with the help of the contai- ner itself, rotating the device (3) forward as shown in Fig. 9. During

steam dispensing the sound signal may go on andoff indica- ting that the boiler is maintaining its temperature.

-To stop the jet of steam, release the button (4) or bring the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device back to its original position by rotating it back as shown in Fig. 10.

-Return the lever to its upright position (Fig. 7), and using a sponge, clean all residues of the heated liquid from the MAXI CAPPUCCI- NO device.

WARNING:While dispensing steam, always take care never to place your hands beneath the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device, which issues a hot jet of steam. Risk of scalding.

-After dispensing steam, water residues may continue to come out from the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device (3). To avoid wetting the sur- face on which the appliance stands, open the drip tray (5), by pres-

sing your finger on its right-hand side (Fig. 12).
