To Steam and Froth Milk
For making cappuccinos, lattes, and other beverages.
1.Ensure that there is water in the water reservoir and that the frothing nozzle is rotated to the left of unit.
2.Turn the steam control dial to the lowest setting (clockwise until fully stopped). Ensure that the espresso button is OFF and the power (On/Off) button is ON.
3.Depress the steam button once. The steam indicator light will glow green and the Temperature/ Ready light will glow red. When the Temperature/Ready light turns off, the water is hot enough to steam or froth milk.
4.Fill a metal or ceramic cup 1⁄3 full with cold milk. Skim milk and a stainless steel cup are recommended.
To Steam/Heat Milk:
Insert the nozzle into the cup, leaving 1⁄4 to 1⁄2 inch of space between the nozzle and the bottom of the cup. The milk is steamed when the cup becomes warm to the touch.
To Froth Milk:
A cold cup is recommended. Insert nozzle into cup to cover only 1⁄2 to 1⁄3 of the nozzle. Rotate the steam
control dial counterclockwise 3⁄4 to a full turn. Hold cup under frothing nozzle until desired consistency is reached. Froth should be stiff and stick to the spoon when scooped. WARNING: To reduce risk of per- sonal injury:
•Use caution when dispensing hot steam.
•Care must be taken after each use because frothing nozzle, filter holder, ground espresso filter or pod filter, and brew head will be hot.
5.Turn the steam control dial OFF (clockwise). Remove cup from under the nozzle.
6.Always clean the frothing nozzle after each use to prevent buildup. See “Cleaning” instructions below.
7.Press the steam button once to turn steam off. Press ON/OFF button once to turn unit off.
NOTE: During this operation, a small quantity of water or steam may come out from the filter holder or the frothing nozzle; this is normal due to evaporation to reach the right temperature to make a creamy cappuccino.
CAUTION: Vapor and water emitted from frothing nozzle are hot.
