Turn the knob to the OPEN position (fig. 18).
For optimal results, froth from the bottom of the container and slowly move upwards. Hold the nozzle
towards the bottom of the container without touching the bottom for about 15 seconds (fig. 19). Then
gradually lower the container so that the steam nozzle moves up towards the surface of the milk. Do
not allow the nozzle to come completely out of the milk.
Once the frothing is complete, turn the dial to the OFF position (fig. 20).
It is important to clean the steam nozzle after each use to prevent milk from hardening and drying inside
the nozzle which can result in the tube blowing off due to pressure build-up. To clean the nozzle :
Place the steam nozzle in a small container filled with water.
Turn the dial to the ON position to remove any remaining milk. Run in the steam position for at least 30
seconds.
Then turn the dial to the OFF position (fig. 22) and wipe the outside of the steam nozzle with a clean
cloth (fig. 23).
For thorough cleaning of the steam nozzle, see Section, "Cleaning of the Steam Nozzle".

MAKING HOT WATER

The hot water dispenser is ideal for preparing tea or infusions.
Fill the water tank with fresh cold water to the maximum line and press the "POWER" button. The
light behind the "POWER" button will illuminate green and start flashing to indicate that your machine
is on and heating up. When the green light behind the "POWER" button stops flashing and turns to a
constant red light, this indicates that the espresso machine is heated and ready to use.
Turn the steam nozzle to the outside of the appliance.
Set a container under the nozzle and turn the control knob to the OPEN position.
Turn the hot water control dial anti-clockwise as far as it will go (fig. 24).
Hot water will now flow into the container.
To stop the water flow, turn the control dial clockwise (fig. 25).
NOTE: recommended maximum volume of hot water is 100ml.
Remove the cup or container and swing the hot water nozzle over the drip tray to catch any drips of
water (fig. 26).

Tip: We recommend using the single cup filter when using the programmed single espresso operation.
With the measuring spoon, add one level spoon of ground coffee per cup of espresso. (fig. 10).
Using the tamper included with the espresso machine, tamp the coffee grounds into the filter holder
(fig. 11). For a proper tamp place the filter holder on a flat surface then press the bottom of the tamper
onto the coffee grounds with firm pressure to pack it into the filter holder. Twist the tamper 90 degrees
to polish the grounds. This seals the surface of the coffee cake.
Remove any excess espresso grounds from the edge of the filter (fig. 13).
Insert the filter holder and turn the handle to the right to firmly secure it into the group head (fig. 8).
Put one or two cups under the filter holder as desired (fig. 14-15).
