The steam can be used for texturing/
frothing milk or for heating liquids. As the
temperature for generating steam must be
higher than for making coffee, the espresso
machine is equipped with an additional
steam mode.
Important: There is risk of scalding when
the steam nozzle is in use. Hot water or
hot steam can cause scalding. Only use the
steam nozzle when it is immersed in the
milk.
• When wanting to froth milk, press the
steam pre-selection button on the control
panel, see figure 26. The steam pre-
selection indicator illuminates and in
addition the indicator will start to flash,
indicating that the espresso machine is
heating.
LCD: Indicates
<<HEATING PLEASE WAIT>>.
When the heating process is finished, the
indicator will stop flashing and remain
constant.
LCD: Indicates
<<STEAM READY OPEN SWITCH>>.
The espresso machine is now ready for
texturing/frothing milk.
Note: If the steam function is not used for
more than 1 minute, the espresso machine
automatically switches back to coffee making
mode.
• Pour cold milk into a stainless steel jug to
no more than ¹/
³
full.
Tip: For best results we recommend using
refrigerated milk and a stainless steel jug
that is well chilled. Be sure not to rinse the
jug with warm water before use.
