PREPARING STEAM
FROTHING MILK
We advise you to use very fresh, very cold milk.
The milk and jug must be cold, ideally between 6 and 10 °C.
We therefore advise you against putting the jug under hot water before using it.
Let the steam escape for
at least 10 seconds and
then again press the
key to stop the process.

If the nozzle is blocked, clean it out with a fine needle.
The maximum duration for production of steam per cycle is limited to 2 minutes.
SETTING UP THE AUTO-CAPPUCCINO XS 6000 (SOLD SEPARATELY)
To prevent the milk drying on the auto-cappuccino accessory, be sure to clean it with a moist cloth.
You are advised to wash it immediately by running a cycle with water to clean the inside.
XS 6000
Steam froths up the milk to make a cappuccino or a caffe latte, for example, and also heats up liquids. As you need a higher
temperature to produce steam than to make an espresso, the appliance runs an additional pre-heating phase for steam.
Press the key
The light will flash while the appliance heats up.
Once pre-heating has been completed, the light will remain on continuously and you can start
producing steam by again pressing the key.
Check that the steam
nozzle is correctly
fitted.
Pour the milk into your
milk jug.
Immerse the nozzle in
the milk.
Once your milk is frothy
enough...
Activate the steam
function as explained
above.
...again press the
key to stop the cycle.
For more thorough cleaning the steam nozzle can be dismantled from the
machine. Clean it with water, a little non-abrasive washing up liquid and a
small brush. Rinse and dry it. Before putting it back in place, make sure
that the air inlet holes are not blocked by residues of milk. Unblock them
with a needle if necessary.
To remove any remaining
milk from the steam
nozzle, place a
receptacle under the
nozzle and press the
key.
The auto-cappuccino accessory makes it easy to prepare a cappuccino or
a caffe latte. It comprises a special nozzle with two-positions / markings
and a brushed stainless steel milk jug and tubes.
Just join the various components to each other (photo on left) and put your
cup or glass under the autocappuccino nozzle.
