necessity to fill in water. Make sure to turn the water off turn the steam control (12) to 

 position, i.e. turn it 

clockwise, so the sign 

 will cover the marker on the casing of the espresso machine. Open the water tank 

cover (1) and pour in the water. After replenishing water, the sound signal will stop. To continue with the hot 
water mode turn the steam control (12) to position 

, i.e. turn it counterclockwise, so the sign 

 will 

cover the casing of the espresso machine. 

CAUTION! Moving the steam/hot water nozzle (10) is possible only by means of a special attachment (Fig. 9). The 
steam/hot water nozzle (10) is extremely hot. 

15. Making steam (foaming milk) 

In order to foam milk you have to use the steam mode. The function of the steam is twofold. The steam heats up and 
mixes the milk with air, giving it a smooth, velvet look. Similarly as in coffee brewing, foaming milk needs some 
experience and you will achieve better results in time. 

Tip

: Remember that coffee is the basis for all coffee-based beverages and milk is only an addition. 

Remark

: It is advisable to make coffee first, then start foaming milk. 

The steam mode may be used for heating up beverages. 

15.1. Make espresso according to 

paragraph 11

 or 

paragraph 13

. 

15.2. Estimate the amount of milk needed on the base of the number of cups of coffee or the size of a pot for milk. 

•

Tip

: Remember that the amount of milk increases during foaming. 

•

Pour in cool milk into a stainless pot, filling it up to 1/3 or 1/2 of its capacity. 

•

Tip

: Keep the stainless pot with milk in a refrigerator for it to be cool. Remember not to rinse the pot with 

hot water before use. 

15.3. Press the steam mode select button 

(E)

. You will hear a sound signal. The display panel will indicate 

 informing you that it is now in steam mode. 

15.4. The 

 indicator on the display panel will begin to whirl, signalizing that the espresso machine is heating up. 

15.5. When the 

 indicator stops whirling, you will hear a sound signal informing you that the machine is ready for 

use (has reached the right temperature). 

15.6. Rinse the steam/hot water nozzle 

(10)

 by placing an other container apart from the pot with milk and acting 

according to 

paragraph 6.2.5

. The steam nozzle will be rinsed. 

15.7. Place the steam nozzle 

(10)

 in the milk pot 

(Fig. 8)

 in such a way that the nozzle is about 1/2 cm below the 

level of milk and activate the steam trigger turn the steam control 

(12)

 to position 

, i.e. turn it 

counterclockwise, so the sign 

 will cover the casing of the espresso machine. 

•

Tilt the pot in such a way that the steam nozzle is placed in the pot and gradually lower the pot until the 
nozzle is below the level of milk. This will result in foaming milk. 

•

Important

: Do not allow for steam to go out unevenly, as milk in such a case will not be foamed 

appropriately. To avoid such a situation pick up the pot in such a way that the nozzle is placed deeper in 
the milk. Remember that a foam should be ideally light and soft. 

•

When the milk is heated and foamed, its level will rise. When it happens, lower the pot keeping the end of 
the nozzle under the level of milk. 

•

When the foam is done lift the pot in such a way that the nozzle is placed in the middle of milk. 

•

Tip

: The amount of foam differs depending on the type of prepared beverage. For example, cappuccino 

needs more foam than an espresso-based coffee beverage served with foamed milk. 

•

Close off steam as soon as milk is heated up to 60–65°C turn the steam control 

(12)

 to 

position, i.e. 

turn it clockwise, so the sign 

 will cover the marker on the casing of the espresso machine. 

•

Tip

: If you have not got a thermometer, a good way to measure the temperature is to touch the side of the 

pot. If the milk is hot enough, you will not be able to hold your hand for more than 3 seconds.. 

•

Important

: Do not boil the milk up. 

•

Remove the pot. Immediately wipe the steam nozzle 

(10) 

and its ending with a clean, wet cloth, as well as 

rinse it with a small amount of steam as before the process of milk foaming. 

•

Holding the pot in hand tap it on the table to release air bubbles and then move it in circles till the milk is 
shiny and there are no air bubbles visible. This will help to get a uniform consistency of milk and foam. 

15.8. Add the foamed milk to the espresso prepared earlier. Your cappuccino is now ready. 
15.9. To end working with the hot water mode on, press power on/off button 

(A)

. You will hear a sound signal. 

The 

 indicator will go off from the display panel, informing that the espresso machine is back to the 

coffee brew mode. 

CAUTION! If there is not enough water in the water tank (1), the nozzle (10) will not produce hot water. The 
indicator 

 will flash on the display panel and you will hear a repeating sound signal informing you about the
