User manual KRUPS F889

[. . . ] S Carefully read these operating instructions before using the appliance. S Connect the appliance only to an earthed mains safety socket. The voltage stated on the appliance rating plate must correspond with that of your mains supply. S Never place the appliance on a hot surface, such as an oven hotplate, or use or stand it in the vicinity of a naked gas flame. [. . . ] Note: Whilst the "empty spent coffee holder" indicator is glowing or blinking, it is not possible to prepare espresso or coffee. s Empty the drawer when the drawer-float has risen to the mark (19). Note: When you remove the drawer together with the spent coffee holder from the appliance before the "coffee grounds holder" indicator begins to glow, always empty the spent coffee holder, as the next indicator otherwise follows too late and the holder could overflow. Steam can be used for frothing up milk for cappuccino and also for the heating of liquids. Since the production of steam requires a higher temperature than that for the preparation of espresso, the appliance is furnished with an additional pre-heating phase for steam. S Press the steam pre-selector key for about one second (20), whereupon the "steam" indicator will blink. When the preheating phase is completed, the "steam" indicator will glow and you can commence the production of steam. Appliance indicator(s) Due to the nature of the system, a little water will run out of the steam nozzle before each time steam is produced. S As soon as steam issues from the nozzle, turn the selector knob back to the position and remove the receptacle. Frothing up milk for cappuccino A cappuccino consists of 1/3 each of espresso, milk and milk-froth. Then froth up the milk for the cappuccino. S Pour about 100 ml of low-fat milk into a small, narrow jug of not more than 0. 5 litre capacity which will fit below the steam nozzle of the appliance. Note: The milk should be well-cooled and the jug used should also be cold, so do not rinse it first in warm water. S Hold the jug under the frothing aid in such a way, that the nozzle section dips completely into the milk. Hold the jug steady during the frothing operation and do not allow the nozzle to touch the bottom of the jug, so as not to impede the outflow of steam. s After the frothing operation , turn the knob for steam/hot water to the position and remove the receptacle. Then add the milk and the milkfroth to the espresso. S Clean the frothing aid and the steam nozzle with a moist cloth immediately after the frothing operation is finished. S To remove any eventual residue of milk from the steam nozzle, place a receptacle beneath the nozzle and turn the knob for steam/hot water to the position for just a moment. When the pre-heating is completed, the "steam" indicator will glow and you can commence the production of steam. Wipe the casing inside and outside with a moist cloth only. [. . . ] S Place a sufficiently large receptacle (at least 300 ml capacity) below the steam nozzle (32). S When the "empty spent coffee holder" indicator glows, take out and empty the drawer with the spent coffee holder. The rinsing procedure will continue and the water will run intermittently into the drawer. S Remove the drawer with the base grid and spent coffee holder. [. . . ]
