Keeping it clean:
1 IMPORTANT: the steam nozzle should be
cleaned after each use in order to avoid build
up of milk deposits that are very difficult to
clean. Cleaning is made easy as can be seen
in the DESCRIPTION OF PARTS. The outer
part of nozzle can be removed by pulling
downward.
The outside of the steam pipe can be cleaned
with a damp cloth.
The steam jet is cleaned by running a shot of
steam through it.
The hole in the steam nozzle must be kept
open. A needle may be used.
2 Clean filter holder and filter in warm water
after use.
4 Slowly turn steam valve knob (7) counter
clockwise to release steam.
IMPORTANT:
The more you turn the
knob, the greater the steam pressure for
frothing.
5 When you have made enough froth, turn
steam knob clockwise to shut off steam.
Put steam switch (4) to “0” position.
6 Top each cup of cappuccino with a dash
of cinnamon, cocoa, nutmeg. Serve.
7 NOTE: If you want to make more espres-
so immediately after steaming milk, the
machine boiler must be refilled with water
and temperature brought down to a
brewing temperature.
Otherwise, espresso may taste “burned”.
To do this: place an empty cup on the drip
plate.
Do not insert filter holder.
Turn hot water/brew switch (2) to “1”
letting cup fill with water.
Turn brew switch “0”.
You may now proceed to make more

put the hot water/brew switches (2) and
the steam switch (4) to “0” to stop the water
release.
