EN
Add frothed milk to your espresso to make cappuccino.

NOTE: If you want to prepare several cups of cappuccino, prepare the espressos first and then froth the
milk for all the cappuccinos.
2. Press the Steam button to switch the steamer on. The Coffee button indicator will switch off. Wait until the
green indicator on the Steam button illuminates.
NOTE: The indicator on the Steam button switches off during the heating process and turns green once
the steam temperature is reached. During steaming, the Steam button indicator will switch on and off to
maintain the set temperature. This is normal and does not indicate that the appliance is faulty.
3. Fill a frothing jug with about 150 ml of whole or semi-skimmed milk for each cup of cappuccino. For best
results, use cold milk directly from the fridge (not hot milk).
4. Insert the steam wand in the milk and turn the Steam control knob anti-clockwise to steam Level 1. Steam

(OFF) position. Remove the steam wand from the milk.
8. Carefully wipe the steam wand with a soft damp cloth immediately after it stops producing steam to
