sed, when the espresso machine is in their reach. During operation and shortly
thereafter, the steam wand will be very hot and hot steam and hot water could
escape from the steam wand and group head. Do not hold your hands and arms
near the steam wand tip.
To avoid splashing of hot milk, before removing the milk, always stop the steam
flow by turning the steam dial to "0". After texturing, the steam wand will be hot.
Only touch the steam wand at the handle to avoid scalding! When using glasses
or plastic mugs, DO NOT point the steam wand directly at the side walls of the
vessel, because even heat-resistant glass could crack and plastic could melt due
to the extreme local heating. It is better to avoid using glass or plastic vessels
for texturing.
WARNING
from the steam wand under pressure, as soon as you turn the steam dial open.
NOTE
You cannot use the espresso function and steam function at the same time.
Various useful tips for texturing milk are given in section 'Tips for Best Results / Tips
for Texturing Milk'.
1. Prepare the appliance for operation (see: 'Preparing the Appliance for Operati-

2. For heating the water system to the appropriate steam temperature, press the
steam button (button stays pressed). The espresso indicator get dark.
3. Fill approx. 100 ml of fresh, cold milk (sufficient for normal cappuccino) into a
sufficiently large, high vessel (e.g. porcelain mug, provided milk jug).
IMPORTANT - During texturing, the milk may get inflated up to three times the volu-
me, causing overflow when using a vessel that is too small.
4. Turn the steam wand into a heat-resistant vessel. Wait until the steam indicator
illuminates.
5. Turn the steam dial counter-clockwise and let the appliance operate until the
water is flushed out of the steam wand and steam is given off. Turn the steam
dial back to "0" for stopping the steam flow.
