B. CLEANING THE FROTHING WAND
CAUTION! The frothing wand, and frothing
•
sleeve may be VERY HOT.
It is recommended to purge and wipe the fro-
•
thing wand after steaming milk to prevent de-
posits of dirt and before turning off the machi-
ne.
To do this, pull the frothing sleeve down and
•
clean under warm running water.
Fill a cup with a bit of water, immerse the fro-
•
thing wand into the water.
Drain hot water through the pipe, following the
•
instructions "Obtaining hot water".
Use a cloth to dry the frothing wand and repla-
•
ce the frothing sleeve.
In case no steam comes out of the frothing
•
wand, hardened milk blocks its path. Carefully
use a needle to loosen the milk residue from
the opening of the frothing tip to remove any
blockage,
Once clean, rinse with running water from the
•
tap and reassemble it. Then steam again.
HOW TO DEAL WITH LIME SCALE INCRUS-
TATIONS:
For the appliance to work correctly it should be
•
kept free of lime scale or magnesium incrusta-
tions caused by the use of hard water.
To prevent this kind of problem, we recom-
•
mend the use of water with low lime or magne-
sium mineralisation.
However, if it is not possible to use the kind of
•
water recommended above, you should perio-
dically remove the lime scale from the appliance:
Every 6 weeks if the water is "very hard".
Every 12 weeks if the water is "hard".
To do so, we recommend the use of a specific
•
Decal product for this kind of machine which
can be found in specialised shops and authori-
sed technical services.
Homemade solutions are not recommended in
•
the de-scaling of this appliance, such as the
use of vinegar.
