‘steam/hot water’ switch up to activate the steam and commence frothing the milk. See figure 29.

•To stop the frothing process, turn the ‘steam/hot water’ switch down into the ‘off’ position and then remove the jug. See figure 30.

•Deselect the steam mode by pressing the
steam
Tip: After steaming and the steam mode has been deselected on the control panel, turn the ‘steam/hot water’ switch up and allow hot water to run out for a couple of seconds. This will help the temperature of the espresso machine return to coffee making temperature and also prevent milk remains from drying inside the steam nozzle and therefore blocking the nozzle. Be sure to place a cup of some kind under the steam nozzle when doing this.
