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 move- ments 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 hot water by pressing the button again.

2.Wait a few minutes for the cappuccino maker to cool down, then press the button on the hot water spout and extract it. Hold the spout with one hand and with the other, turn the cappuccino maker anticlockwise (fig. 22) and pull downwards to remove.

3.Also remove the steam nozzle by pulling it downwards (fig. 27A).

4.Check the hole shown by the arrow in fig. 27B 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, pushing it upwards and turning it until it is at- tached.

CLEANING

Important!

•Do not use solvents, abrasive detergents or alcohol to clean the coffee machine. With De’Longhi superauto- matic bean to cup espresso and cappuccino machines, you need not use chemical products to clean the machine.

•None of the components of the appliance can be washed in a dishwasher with the exception of the milk container

(C).

•Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or coffee deposits as they could scratch metal or plastic surfaces.

Cleaning the coffee grounds container

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

The appliance cannot be used to make coffee until you have cleaned the grounds container.

Even if not full, the empty grounds container message is dis- played 72 hours after the first coffee has been prepared. For the 72 hours to be calculated correctly, the machine must never be turned off with the main switch in the 0 position.

Important! Danger of burns

If you make a number of cappuccinos one after the other, the metal cup tray becomes hot.

Wait for it to cool down before touching it and handle it from the front only.

To clean (with the machine on):

•Remove the drip tray (fig. 28), empty and clean.

•Empty the grounds container and clean thoroughly to remove all residues left on the bottom. This can be done with the spatula on the brush provided.
