6.4 Dispensing of hot water
1
Place an adequate water container (with a heat-insulated handle) under the hot water dispenser. After
having moved the power switch into the lower position, you can dispense water (e. g. for tea) by opening
the hot water lever.
2
After dispensing water refill the water tank if necessary and switch the machine on again. The boiler will
be filled with fresh water automatically.
When the machine is switched off, more hot water can be dispensed.
However, one does not necessarily have to switch off the machine for dispensing hot water.
Caution!
Place the nozzle of the dispenser into the water container in order to avoid injuries due to hot
water spraying.
6.5 Dispensing of steam
The PROFITEC PRO 500 makes it possible to generate large amounts of steam in order to heat or froth
beverages, e. g. milk or punch. It is a professional and compact espresso coffee machine with an enormous
steam volume. Therefore, within a few seconds you can prepare milk froth. Please pay attention to the
instructions below. Do not bring the milk to a boil, otherwise it is not possibile to get the milk to froth.
Important: In order to get the best result when frothing milk, open the steam lever for approx. 5 seconds
1
to release condensation water in the pipe.
2
Immerse the steam nozzle (at the end of the steam dispenser) into the liquid.
3
Re-open the steam handle.
4
Heat and/or froth the liquid.
5
After frothing or heating, release the steam into the drip tray to keep the holes of the steam nozzle clean.
Risk of injury
Always keep the steam nozzle underneath the surface of the liquid while heating or frothing in
order to avoid spraying.
Important
Clean the steam nozzle and the steam dispenser after every application with a non-abrasive,
damp cloth; this removes possible liquid residues.
Risk of injury
Avoid skin contact with the steam dispenser while cleaning!
