• CAUTION: At this stage it is possible
that some water will escape from the
filter-holder slot. This is completely
normal. Nevertheless, take care not to
burn yourself.
• Turn the steam switch to ON until the
OK pilot light goes off again and then
activate the steam/hot water option by
turning the knob in an anticlockwise
direction. At first, the steam may be
mixed with a few drops of water. This is
normal and in no way affects the final
result. If you do not want these drops of
water to mix with the milk, wait until no
more water appears and then turn the
control knob to the OFF position.
• After about 5 seconds, submerge the
tube into the milk, turn the steam knob
to the ON position, ensuring that the
nozzle is almost level with the surface of
the milk (fig. 6).
• The temperature OK pilot light may
come on whilst you are steaming the
milk. This is completely normal.
• When you have steamed the milk as
much as you want, return the control
knob to the OFF position. Take care not
to burn yourself.
• Clean the outside of the tube and
nozzle with a damp cloth immediately
after use. To clean the inside of the
steam tube, open the steam outlet by
turning the control knob and then turn
the coffee switch to ON. Let the hot
water run through for a few seconds.
• If the steam outlet becomes blocked,
clean it using a pin or other similar
object.
If you want to use your machine to make
coffee immediately after having used the
steam option, run an empty cycle (with
no coffee in the filter) first. See "How to
prepare the perfect espresso".

7. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Before carrying out any cleaning or
maintenance operation, switch the
machine off, unplug it and leave it to
cool.
• Do not clean the machine with solvents,
detergents or abrasive products. Use a
damp cloth.
• Clean the filter-holder, filter, drip tray
and nozzle after each use.
• Do not wash any of the machine's
components or accessories in the
dishwasher.
• Empty the water deposit after each use
and rinse with clean water.
• Do not submerge the machine in water.
Cleaning the water outlet in the filter-
It is a good idea to clean the filter-holder
slot with a damp cloth after each use in
order to remove any coffee grains. We
also recommend that you run an empty
cycle (with an empty filter) after each use
in order to clean the water outlets.
We recommend that you decalcify your
machine once every 3-4 months,
depending on the hardness of the water in
your area and the frequency of use. Use a
commercial decalcifying agent specially
designed for coffeemakers or a water and
vinegar solution and follow the steps
outlined below:
• Fill the deposit with a mixture of water
and eight spoonfuls of vinegar.
• Turn the machine on as if you were
going to make coffee. When the deposit
is empty, rinse thoroughly.
• Run two or three empty cycles and
rinse well until the smell of vinegar has
completely disappeared.
Using any substance other than those
mentioned above could be hazardous.
