Hot Water Dispensing; Cleaning And Maintenance - Sirena SIN025RX Manual De Instrucciones

BEFORE PERFORMING ANY OPERATION RELATED TO STEAM OR HOT WATER DISPENSING,
CHECK THAT THE STEAM WAND IS DIRECTED OVER THE DRIP TRAY.
Warning! Always make sure the portafilter is inserted before steaming or dispensing hot water.

7 HOT WATER DISPENSING

Danger of scalding! Dispensing may be preceded by short sprays of hot water. The steam
wand can reach high temperatures; do not touch it with bare hands.
• Turn on the machine, if not already on, with the main power button (14); the power light (15) illuminates.
• Wait until the brew lights (18 and 20) illuminate and remain fixed.
• Place a container or a glass under the steam wand.
• Open the hot water/steam knob (6) by turning it clockwise all the way.
• When the desired quantity of hot water has been dispensed, rotate the hot water/steam knob counter-
clockwise (6).
• Remove the container with hot water.
8 STEAM DISPENSING / STEAMING MILK
Danger of scalding! Dispensing may be preceded by short sprays of hot water. The steam
wand can reach high temperatures; do not touch it with bare hands.
Warning! Always make sure the portafilter is inserted before steaming or dispensing hot water.
Note: If the steam function is selected, but not used for a period of 1 minute, the machine will
automatically exit the steam function mode.
For best steaming results allow the unit to fully warm up before steaming.
• Turn on the machine, if not already on, with the main power button (15); the power light (16) illuminates.
• Wait until the brew lights (18 and 20) illuminate and remain fixed. Make sure the steam wand is directed
over the drip tray and the portafilter is inserted into the machine.
• Press the steam button (21). The brew lights (18 and 20) turn off. The steam light (22) starts to blink.
• The machine is ready for steam dispensing when the steam light (22) remains fixed.
• Place a container below the steam wand and open the hot water/steam knob (6) by turning it clockwise
all the way for a few seconds, so that residual water exits from the steam wand. Shortly after, a steady
jet of steam will be dispensed. (Fig. R)
• Close the knob (6) by turning it counter-clockwise, and remove the container.
To guarantee the best results when steaming milk, always use cold milk.
• Immerse the steam wand in the milk and open the knob (6) by turning it clockwise all the way; turn the
container with slow upward movements so that it is warmed evenly. (Fig. S)
• After using the steam for the desired time, close the knob (6) by turning it counter-clockwise; remove the
container with the warmed milk/beverage.

• Press the steam button (21) to deselect the steam function.
• After pressing the steam button, the machine automatically returns back to its normal mode for brewing
espresso and hot water.
• IMPORTANT: Prime the water circuit as described in section 4.5 to rinse the inside of the steam
wand of any residual milk (also see section 9).
The same operation can be used to heat other beverages.
• After this operation, clean the steam wand with a damp cloth.

9 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Warning! To avoid serious injury and electrical shock, it is essential to turn off and unplug the
Sirena, and allow it to completely cool off before cleaning.
Cleaning and maintenance operations can only be carried out when the machine is cold and disconnected
from the power supply.
• Do not immerse the machine in water or place any of its components in a dishwasher.
• Do not use sharp objects or harsh chemical products (solvents) for cleaning.
• Never use harsh cleaning agents, especially those containing alcohol, solvents, or abrasive materials on
your Starbucks Sirena Espresso Maker.
• Wipe all external surfaces with a damp cloth; then wipe the surfaces dry to preserve the exterior of your
machine.
• Do not dry the machine and/or its components using a microwave and/or conventional oven.
• We recommend cleaning the water tank and filling it with fresh water daily.
• After heating or steaming a beverage, always dispense a small amount of hot water out of the steam
wand to clean the inside of the steam wand, and clean it on the outside with a damp cloth.
- If you notice a residue build-up on the tip of the steam wand, or if water flow out of the steam
wand seems to be restricted, submerge the steam wand in a tall container of hot water. Allow the
steam wand to soak in this hot water overnight. Then clean the steam wand with a damp cloth, and
run some water through the steam wand to remove any internal residue. (Fig. T and Fig. U) This
preventive measure can reduce or eliminate the need for more intensive cleaning; however, the
machine must still be descaled on a regular basis (section 10).
• Empty and clean the drip tray daily. (The drip tray and grill are dishwasher safe, but we recommend
hand-washing both parts.)
• To clean the portafilter, proceed as follows:
- Remove the filter (10 or 12) from the portafilter. Immerse it in hot water and wash it thoroughly,
making sure to remove any remaining coffee grounds from the filter basket holes. If necessary, use
a small pin to clean out any clogged holes. (Fig. V)
- If soap is used, rinse thoroughly.
- If inserted, remove the rubber gasket adapter (11a) and plastic support peg (11b) and wash them
thoroughly.
- Rinse the internal part of the portafilter thoroughly, making sure to remove any remaining coffee
grounds by pressing on the inside part of the portafilter, as shown in (Figure W).
• At least once per month, clean the brew head from any coffee grounds, using a damp towel.
• Descale your machine regularly, following the descaling instructions in section 10 of this manual.
• Turn off the machine by pressing the power button (15), and unplug the machine from the power outlet
after each use.
