A. BASIC CLEANING
Disconnect the appliance from the mains and
•
let it cool before undertaking any cleaning task.
Clean the equipment with a damp cloth with a
•
few drops of washing-up liquid and then dry.
Do not use solvents, or products with an acid
•
or base pH such as bleach, or abrasive prod-
ucts, for cleaning the appliance.
Do not let water or any other liquid get into the
•
air vents to avoid damage to the inner parts of
the appliance.
Neither parts of this appliance are suitable for
•
cleaning in the dishwasher.
After washing, dry all the parts before fitting
•
them together and storing.
B. CLEANING THE FROTHING WAND
CAUTION! The frothing wand, frothing tip, and
•
frothing sleeve may be VERY HOT
It is recommended to purge and wipe the froth-
•
ing wand after steaming milk to prevent depos-
its of dirt and before turning off the machine
To do this, pull the black frothing sleeve down
•
Fill a cup with a bit of water, immerse the froth-
•
ing wand into the water
Drain hot water through the pipe, following the
•
instructions "Getting hot water"
Use a cloth to dry the frothing wand and re-
•
place the frothing sleeve
In case no steam comes out of the frothing
•
wand, hardened milk blocks its path.
Carefully use a needle to loosen the milk resi-
•
due from the opening of the frothing tube
to remove any blockage,
•
Once clean, rinse with running water from the
•
tap and reassemble it. Then steam again
HOW TO DEAL WITH LIME SCALE INCRUS-
TATIONS:
For the appliance to work correctly it should be
•
kept free of lime scale or magnesium incrusta-
tions caused by the use of hard water.
To prevent this kind of problem, we recom-
•
mend the use of water with low lime or magne-
sium mineralisation.
However, if it is not possible to use the kind of
•
water recommended above, you should peri-
odically remove the lime scale from the appli-
ance:
Every 6 weeks if the water is "very hard".
Every 12 weeks if the water is "hard".
o do so, we recommend the use of a specific
•
product Taurus Decal for this kind of product
which can be found in specialised shops and
authorised technical services.
Homemade solutions are not recommended in
•
the descaling of this appliance, such as the use
of vinegar.
