[. . . ] S Do not place or use the appliance on hot surfaces, such as a stove hotplate, or in the vicinity of a naked gas flame. S Do not use the appliance when the container is not filled with water. S Do not remove the capsule holder during the brewing process as the appliance is then under pressure. S Do not use the appliance when the drip tray and cup grid are not pushed in. [. . . ] S As soon as the red control lamp glows steadily, swing out the steam and hot water nozzle and place a suitable vessel beneath it. S Press the key and turn the rotary valve to the position (18). If you do not actuate the rotary valve in the next 2 minutes, the appliance will return to ist normal operating mode. S As soon as there is sufficient water in the vessel, return the rotary valve to the q position. S Now remove the vessel and swing the steam and hot water nozzle inwards over the cup grid so that any further drops of water can fall into the drip tray. In order to achieve the optimum frothing-up, you should use the separate frothing attachment. Just stick the frothing aid onto the steam/hot water nozzle (19). The frothing aid must be used only for the frothing-up of milk. Pour about 100 ml of low fat milk into a small, narrow jug (max 0. 5 litre capacity) which must pass easily under the steam nozzle of the machine. The jug you use should also be cooled, so do not rinse it out beforehand with warm water. First of all prepare the espresso, making the cappuccino cup only half full of espresso. Remove the capsule from the holder and reinsert the empty holder. Turn the rotary valve to q and press the key (20). The red operation control lamp and the green steam control lamp will both blink. As soon as the red control lamp glows steadily, the appliance has reached the temperature necessary for the production of steam. If you do not actuate the rotary valve in the next 2 minutes, the appliance will return to ist normal operating mode. dip the steam and hot water nozzle into the vessel containing the milk. In doing this, hold the jug under the nozzle in such a way that the nozzle itself dips right into the milk (21). Turn the rotary valve to the position and hold the jug steady during the frothing operation. The nozzle must not touch the bottom of the jug, so as not to impede the flow of steam. When the frothing operation is finished, return the rotary valve to the q position. [. . . ] Wash out the capsule cage with fresh water. Clean both holes on the nozzle of the capsule cage with the help of the nozzle cleaner (29). Be careful when using the nozzle cleaner, as injury can occur if it is not used properly. Blow in the direction of the arrow (upwards) into the capsule cage, so as to free the two holes from any impurity (30). [. . . ]
