HOW TO MAKE A CAPPUCCINO

To make cappuccino, hot chocolate or heat any beverage,
F
C
move switch (C) to the steam position ( ) and wait until
D
the warning light (D) goes off, which indicates that the heating
unit has reached the right temperature to produce steam
(approximately 150º C).
WARNING: if small spurts of steam come out of the ring
holder while waiting for the steam, this is completely nor-
mal.
At this point turn the steam switch (F) down, making sure to
position the cup under the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device (H): at
first a little water will come out immediately followed by a
strong jet of steam.
Lift lever (F) to stop the steam and place the pitcher of milk to
froth under the MAXI CAPPUCCINO device. Immerse the
H
wand into the pitcher of milk down to the bottom and lower the
lever (F) again to obtain the desired froth.
During these operations you will notice that the warning light (D) goes on and off at regular inter-
vals indicating that the boiler's temperature is keeping the water required for the steam supply
at the right temperature. It is best to start steam flow only when the warning light is off.
RETURN TO BREW COFFEE
Move the switch (C) to the central position to cool off the heating unit. To cool the heating unit
more quickly, proceed as follows: after placing the receptacle under the wand (H), move the
switch (C) to position ( ) (for coffee brewing) and immediately lower the level (F) (for making
steam): this will cause water to flow out, until the warning light (D) turns back on. At this point,
release the lever (F) and move the right switch (C) to the central position. The coffee maker is
now ready to brew coffee again.
RECOMMENDED REGULAR CLEANING
WARNING: all cleaning operations must be carried out with the coffee maker turned off.
Cleaning the filter containing the ground coffee. Make sure the tiny holes are not blocked
and if necessary clean them with a brush. Make sure that the hole below them is not blocked, if
necessary clean with a pin.
Cleaning the ring filter housing. With use a sediment of coffee grounds may form in the hou-
sing where the filter ring is placed. They can be removed with a toothpick. Periodically clean the
perfo-rated disc by running water without putting the filter ring in its housing.
Cleaning the MAXI CAPPUCCINO attachment.
Carry out this operation when the chromed tube is cool to avoid getting burned. Unscrew
the device (H) from the wand and rinse under running water. The wand can be cleaned using a
non-abrasive cloth.
Rescrew the cappuccino attachment until it reaches the end. If necessary clean the hole where
the steam comes from with a pin.
Cleaning the tank. It is advisable to periodically clean the inside of the tank with a sponge or
damp cloth.
