Using Steam
1.Preparing steam
Steam is used to froth the milk to whip up a cappuccino and also to heat liquids. As the production of steam requires a high temperature, the appliance allows for a preheating phase for steam.
Indicator LightsIndicator Lights
• Press the preselection for steam button
18
for about one second (18). The indicator light «steam» flashes. Once the preheating phase is complete, the
«steam» indicator light stays on and you can now start producing steam.
It is possible that a little water may run out of the steam nozzle before each production of steam. To get rid of this water, proceed as follows:
• Place a container under the steam nozzle
.
2.Preparing frothy milk for cappuccino
A cappuccino comprises one third coffee, one third milk and one third milk froth.
•Fill a lar ge cup 1/3 with espresso coffee.
•For best results, place the frothing aid on the tip of the steam nozzle.
Note! The frothing aid must be used
only for frothing milk.
•Pour about 100ml of very fresh cold milk into a narrow jug with a maximum capacity of 0.5l and which will fit beneath the steam nozzle of the appliance.
Note! The milk and its jug must be well chilled.
•Select steam mode (see «1. Preparing steam»).
•Hold the jug containing the milk under the jet of steam in such a way that the tip of the nozzle is completely immersed in the liquid.
19
and turn the steam/hot water selector to the position (19).
• As soon as steam comes out of the nozzle, return the selector to the position and remove the container.
KRUPS KRUPS
14 15
•Turn the steam/hot water selector to the
21
position (21).
• Hold the jug while the froth is produced and make sure the nozzle does not touch the bottom of the container so as not to prevent the passage of the steam.
• Once the froth has been obtained, reset the steam/hot water selector to the position and remove the jug.Add the milk and the milk froth to the coffee.
•Clean the frothing aid and the steam nozzle using a damp cloth immediately after frothing milk.
•To remove any remaining trace of milk from the steam nozzle, place a container under the nozzle and turn the steam/hot water selector to the position for a few seconds.
3. Heating liquids
• Remove the frothing aid.
22
• Press the steam preselection button (22).

the steam nozzle and immerse the nozzle in the liquid. Turn the steam/hot water selector to position (23).
23
• When the liquid is hot enough, reset the
selector to the position and remove the container.
• Clean the steam nozzle using a damp cloth
immediately after heating any liquid.
• To remove any remaining trace of liquid from
the steam nozzle, place a container under the nozzle and turn the steam/hot water selector to the position for a few seconds.
4. Cancelling the steam function and returning to the preparation of an espresso coffee or hot water.
You can cancel the steam production function in two ways:
