6.8 Automatic steam wand (optional)

6.8.1

Tips regarding its use

• Only froth the amount of milk that you intend to use; once
heated, the milk will have to be completely poured out of
the jug and cannot be reheated.
• The automatic steam wand only guarantees an accuracy
of ± 3°C between the set temperature and the actual milk
temperature, if the starting milk temperature is 4°C.
• As the steam automatically stops dispensing when the set
milk temperature is reached, only fill the jug half way in
order to prevent the milk froth from spilling out.
• Use a suitably-sized jug for the amount of milk that re-
quires frothing (approx. 200 ml is recommended) and
make sure that it is circular and not conical (see the im-
age).
6.8.2

Dispensing

Do not direct the steam towards hands or other
parts of the body. Do not touch the steam nozzles
with bare hands; use the appropriate PPE.
• Immerse the automatic steam wand
nozzle into the milk.
• Select the button.
• Wait until the dispensing process
is complete. As an indication that
the set temperature has been
reached, the
also change status.
• To stop dispensing ahead of time,
press the button again.
The temperature of the beverage will
always be shown on the display.

Select the button after the set temperature has
been reached to dispense steam for an additional 10 seconds
(function available up to a maximum temperature of 80°C)
or disable it by pressing and holding down the first button for
10 seconds.
Keep the tips clean at all times using a cloth damp-
ened in lukewarm water. Milk can be kept in the
fridge for a maximum of 3-4 days. To keep the au-
tomatic steam wand nozzle tips in perfect working order,
perform a brief dry dispensing run after each use.
When programmed, 5 minutes after the automatic steam
wand was last used 2 sound alerts will go off and a few sec-
onds later, the machine will automatically clean the steam
wand using 5 short spurts of steam.
To change the temperature of the automatic steam wand,
see para. "6.12.3 Automatic steam wand temperature" on
page 53.

6.9 Dispensing cappuccinos (optional)

• Put the suction tube in the milk.
• Place the jug under the spout of the cappuccino maker.
• Open the steam valve and when the de-
sired amount has been obtained, close
the steam valve.
• Pour the frothed milk into the cups with
the coffee.
To obtain hot non-frothed milk,
lift the cappuccino maker flap
upwards.
For better results, we suggest that you do
not dispense directly into the coffee cup,
but into a jug first, and then pour the
frothed milk on top the coffee.
Be sure to constantly keep the cappuc-
cino maker clean, by following the in-
structions provided in paragraph "7.5
Cleaning operations" on page 60.
