Disposal of the packaging

The packaging protects the device against damage during transit. The packaging materials have been selected according to environmental and waste disposal aspects and can therefore be recycled.

Recycling the packaging material for further use saves raw materials and reduces the waste. When no longer required, dispose of the packaging materials in accordance with the local regulations.

NOTE

If possible, keep the original packaging during the warranty period in order to pack the device properly in the event of a warranty claim. Transport damage will invalidate the warranty.

Requirements for the place of use

For safe and trouble-free operation of the device, the place of operation must satisfy the following requirements:

• Place the device on a level, heat resistant surface that is also resistant to splashing milk.

Do not place the appliance in a hot, wet or very humid environment or in the vicinity of inflammable materials. There must be a gap of at least 15cm between the device and any walls, furniture or other objects.

Select a location that does not allow children to reach the hot surfaces of the device.

The device is not intended to be mounted.

The mains socket must be easily accessible so that the plug can be quickly pulled out in an emergency.

EN

Electrical connection

For safe and trouble-free operation of the device, the following instructions have to be observed for the electrical connection:

Before connecting the device, compare the connection data (voltage and frequency) on the rating plate with those of your mains power supply. The data must correspond in order to avoid damage to the device. If in doubt, ask your electrical device retailer.

The mains socket must be protected by at least a 10 A circuit breaker.

Ensure that the connecting cable is undamaged and is not laid over hot surfaces or sharp edges.

The connecting cable must not be strained, bent or come into contact with the hot device.

Place the cable in such a way as to avoid danger from trip- ping.

The device may not be connected using an extension cable or multiple power strip.

• The electrical safety of the device is only assured when it is connected to a properly installed protective earth (PE) conductor system. Connection to a mains socket without PE conductor is forbidden. If in doubt, the electrical system must be checked by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer assumes no liability for injury or damage caused by a missing or interrupted protective earth conductor.

Preparing

Inserting/removing the frother

EN

WARNING

Danger of injury by accidentally switching on the device.

Switching on the device accidentally can cause burns.

Do not insert the plug into the mains socket yet.
Do not place the milk container (1) onto the base plate (6) yet.

Put the frother (4) on the holding pin (8) on the bottom of the milk container (1) and push it with minimal force until it snaps in with a "click".

Pull the frother (4) carefully with minimal force from the hol- ding pin (8) of the milk container (1).

Placing the milk container onto the base plate

EN

This section contains important information on the operation of the device.

Safety precautions

WARNING

Improper use may cause injury to persons or material damage!

In addition to the fundamental safety precautions, observe all information stated in this section in order to avoid danger.

Do not put any inflammable substances onto the device or into the vicinity of the appliance.

Notes on the non-stick coating of the milk container

NOTE

The inside of milk container (1) has a non-stick ceramic coating. This is designed to prevent milk and fat from sticking to the container.

Possibilities for use

You can prepare tasty milk froth for approx. three to four cups of cappuccino or Latte Macchiato easily with the device. You can use various different milk types. It does not matter if you froth milk from cows, goats or soy, the protein content is decisive for the result and not the origin or fat content. It is therefore possible to create creamy froth from milk with a low fat content.

Another advantage: if you are allergic to cow's milk, you could use soy milk instead. You do not have to do without a tasty cappuccino!

Using the device

CAUTION

Danger of damage if heated dry.

Using the device without any liquid (milk) can cause overheating and cause damage to the device.

Before using the device, always fill the milk container with milk.

Fill the milk container with the desired quantity of milk.

NOTE

Pay attention to the minimum and maximum filling levels.

Too much milk can froth over. Refer to the level mark on the inside of the milk container:

minimum filling quantity: 150 ml

maximum filling quantity: 300 ml

EN

Place the milk container (1) onto the base plate (6).

Insert the mains plug of the connecting cable (7) into the mains socket.

Switch on the device as described in the section Switching on by briefly pressing the ON switch (3).

Wait until the milk is warmed up and frothy and the device switches itself off (the control lamp in the ON switch (3) goes out).

NOTE

Depending on the quantity, the frothing process can take approx. 1-2 minutes.

The more milk is poured into the device, the longer the frothing process takes.

CAUTION

Risk of overheating.

Continued use of the device without allowing it to cool down can lead to overheating and cause damage to the device.

Do not press the ON switch (3) after the device has automatically switched itself off.

Do press and hold the ON switch (3) for longer periods of time.

DANGER

Danger of burns from hot surfaces / danger of scalding from hot milk!

Move the milk container slowly and carefully so that hot milk does not spray or spill out.

Pick up the milk container (1) from the base plate (6) using the handle (2).

Pour the froth into a cup or use a spoon to remove it from the milk container.

NOTE

Before you begin frothing milk again, you must allow the device too cool down. The device cannot be switched on again until it has cooled down sufficiently.

Rinse the milk container (1) with cold water after each frothing process to accelerate cooling down.

Switching off

NOTE

The device cannot be switched off via the ON switch (3).
The device switches itself off automatically only after frothing or when the required milk temperature has been reached.
