11. Delivering Hot Water

The steam tube (without the frothing sleeve) can be used to
deliver hot water for hot drinks, for example, tea or ready-made
soups.
Note: If the water is not hot enough, set the Function Switch to
Steam to further heat the water with steam (see chapter 10). It is
normal for the red heating light to illuminate while delivering hot
water. It is also normal for the pump to make ticking noises
when making steam.
a) Fill the container with water and place in the appliance.
b) Remove the frothing sleeve from the steam tube (turn as far

as possible to the left and then pull it off the steam tube).

c) Set the function switch to

Coffee/Hot Water.

d) Place or hold a cup underneath

the steam tube. Turn the control
dial to the left to the Steam/Hot
Water position.

e) To stop the flow of hot water turn

the control dial back to the
center 0 position and remove the
cup or bowl.

12. Turning OFF the Capresso Café

• Do not switch the appliance off immediately after making the

last coffee.

• Wait for a few seconds so that the thermo block heating

system can release any left over moisture into the tray. A hissing
sound can be heard as the steam expands. This is perfectly
normal.

• Now you can turn off the machine.

Note: If the appliance is not used over a longer period of time,
remove the Porta Filter. This will extend the life of the seal inside
the Brew Head.

13. Cleaning & Maintenance

a Always disconnect the plug from the wall outlet and allow the

appliance to cool down before cleaning.

b) Do not immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid.
c) Do not use harsh abrasives to clean. Wipe down the appliance

housing with a damp cloth.

d) Wipe the brew head with a damp cloth. Caution hot! Danger

of burning or scalding!

e) Rinse the fresh water container, the support grid and drip tray

regularly with water.

f) Empty the drip tray regularly. If the red float fill level indicator

(Fig. 1, n) becomes visible through the opening in the support
grid, empty drip tray immediately.

g) If the inner screen becomes heavily soiled, it can be

unscrewed from the brew head, using a coin, for thorough
cleaning. Caution hot! Disconnect plug from wall outlet.
