Measuring water hardness
1. Remove the “TOTAL HARDNESS TEST” indi-
cator paper attached to this manual from its
pack.
2. Immerse the paper completely in a glass of
water for one second.
3. Remove the paper from the water and shake
lightly. After about a minute, 1, 2, 3, or 4 red
squares form, depending on the hardness of
the water. Each square corresponds to one
level.
5. Press the
button and hold it down for
at least 5 seconds to confirm that you have
added the solution and begin the descaling
procedure. The light in the button remains
on steadily to indicate that the descaling
programme has begun (the
and
lights go out as coffee cannot be made).
6. Turn the steam knob a half turn anticlockwi-
se. The descaler solution flows out of the
cappuccino maker into the underlying con-
tainer.

DISPOSAL
Important information for correct disposal of
the product in accordance with EC Directive
2002/96/EC.
At the end of its working life, the product must
not be disposed of as urban waste.
It must be taken to a special local authority dif-
ferentiated waste collection centre or to a dealer
providing this service.
Disposing of a household appliance separately
avoids possible negative consequences for the
environment and health deriving from inappro-
priate disposal and enables the constituent mate-
rials to be recovered to obtain significant savings
in energy and resources.
As a reminder of the need to dispose of house-
hold appliances separately, the product is mar-
ked with a rubbish bin bearing a cross.
5. Press the
button to confirm the setting.

ELECTRICAL REqUIREMENTS
Before using this appliance ensure that the voltage indicated on the product corresponds
with the main voltage in your home, if you are in any doubt about your supply contact your
local electricity company.
The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B.S. 1363 fused plug having a fuse of 13
amp capacity.
Should this plug not fit the socket outlets in your home, it should be cut off and replaced with
a suitable plug, following the procedure outlined below.
Note: Such a plug cannot be used for any other appliance and should therefore be properly
disposed of and not left where children might find it and plug it into a supply socket - with
the obvious consequent danger.
N.B. We recommend the use of good quality plugs and wall sockets that can be switched off
when the machine is not in use.
IMPORTANT: the wires in the mains lead fitted to this appliance are coloured in accordance
with the following code:
Green and Yellow to Earth
13 amp
Fuse
GREEN AND YELLOW
BLUE
BROWN
EARTH
NEUTRAL
LIVE
Brown to
live
Blue to
neutral
Cord Clamp
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this appliance may not correspond with the
coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
-
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the
plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol
green and yellow.
or coloured green or
-
-
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter N or coloured black.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked
with the letter L or coloured red.
When wiring the plug, ensure that all strands of wire are securely retained in each terminal.
Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug. If your electricity supply point has
only two pin socket outlets, or if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.
Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried
out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same
size.
After replacement of a fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover
is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained. The colour of the
correct replacement fuse cover is that of the coloured insert in the base of the fuse recess or
elsewhere on the plug. Always state this colour when ordering a replacement fuse cover.
Only 13amp replacement fuses which are asta approved to B.S. 1362 should be fitted.
This appliance conforms to the Norms EN 55014 regarding the suppression of radio inter-
ference.
Warning - this appliance must be earthed
