you may have to wait a few seconds before the

• When choosing the size of the
container, bear in mind that the liquid
doubles or triples in volume.
• For a richer denser froth, use
skimmed or partially skimmed milk
at refrigerator temperature (about
41°F/5°C).
• For a creamier froth, rotate the
container with slow movements in
an upward direction.
• To avoid milk with poor froth or large
bubbles, always clean the spout.

Important!

• Descaler contains acids which may irritate the skin and eyes. It is vital to respect the manufacturer’s safety warnings
given on the descaler pack and the warnings relating to the procedure to follow in the event of contact with the skin
and eyes. Use De’Longhi descaler only. Under no circumstances should you use sulphamic or acetic based descalers.
Their use invalidates the guarantee. Failure to descale the appliance as described also invalidates the guarantee.
