When the machine is ready to dispense coffee, proceed as follows:
•Place and cup and/or a receptacle beneath the hot water/steam tube (15).
•
Turn the knob (17)
•Dispense the desired amount of hot water; turn the knob (17) clockwise to cut off the flow of hot water. The machine returns to normal operating mode.
9DISPENSING STEAM/MAKING CAPPUCCINO
The steam may be used to froth milk for cappuccino and to heat other beverages.
Danger of scalding! Dispensing may be preceded by brief sprays of hot water. The dispensing tube can reach very high temperatures:
avoid touching it directly with your hands.
•When the machine is ready to dispense coffee, press the button (27). The machine requires pre- heating.
•Before dispensing steam, make sure that the green temperature ready light (28) remains lit.
•Position the steam tube (15) over the drip tray and open the “hot water/steam” knob (17) for a few seconds to discharge residual water from the steam tube; soon only steam will issue from the tube.
•Close the knob (17).
•Fill the receptacle you want to use for making cappuccino 1/3 of the way with cold milk.
To ensure best results when making 
cappuccino, make sure both the milk and
receptacle are cold.
•
Place the tip of the steam tube in the milk to be heated and open the knob (17); slowly raise the receptacle, with gentle rotating movements, to obtain an even layer of foam.
•After dispensing the amount of steam desired, close the knob (17).
•The same procedure may be used to heat other beverages.
After this operation, wipe the steam tube clean with a damp cloth.
9.1 Switching from steam to coffee
•To dispense coffee you must press the but- ton (27).
•When switching from dispensing steam to dis- pensing coffee, the pilot lights (24) and (28) flash simultaneously to indicate that the machine is overheated and cannot dispense coffee.
•In order to dispense coffee, you must drain some water by turning the steam knob (17) until only the temperature ready pilot light (24) remains steadily lit.
