The spout becomes hot during delivery. Hold by the handle 
only. 

If “Energy Saving” mode is enabled, you may have to wait a few 
seconds before the hot water or steam is delivered.

Delivering hot water 
1.  Make sure the hot water spout is attached correctly (fig. 

6). 

2.   Place a container under the spout (as close as possible to 

avoid splashes). 

3.  Press the

button (fig. 3). “Hot water” is displayed, 

together with a progress bar which fills gradually as 
preparation proceeds. 

4.  The machine delivers 250 ml of hot water, then delivery 

stops automatically.  

 

To interrupt delivery of hot water manually, press the 

 button again. 

Change the quantity of water delivered automatically. 
The machine is set by default to automatically delivery 250 ml 
of hot water. To modify these quantities, proceed as follows:
1.  Position a container under the spout.
2.  Press the 

button again until “Hot water Program 

quantity” is displayed, then release the

button.

3.  When the hot water in the cup reaches the required level, 

press the  

 button again.  

The machine is now reprogrammed with the new quantity.

Delivering steam
1.   Make sure the hot water spout is attached correctly (fig. 

6). 

2.  Fill a container with the liquid to be heated/frothed and 

immerse the spout/cappuccino maker in the liquid.

3.  Press the 

 button: after a few seconds, steam comes 

out of the cappuccino maker and heats the liquid; “STE-
AM” is displayed.

4.  When the required temperature is obtained, interrupt 

steam delivery by pressing the 

 button again.  

 

(You should not discharge steam for more than 3 minutes 
at a time).

Always stop steam delivery before extracting the container 
containing the liquid to avoid burns from splashes. 

Tips for using steam to froth milk
•  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 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 as described in the following section. 

Cleaning the spout after use
Always clean the spout after use to avoid the build-up of milk 
residues and prevent the spout from clogging.  
1.  Place a container under the cappuccino maker and press 

the 

  button to deliver a little water (fig. 3). 

 

Stop the flow of water by pressing the 

 button 

again. 

2.  Wait a few minutes for the cappuccino maker to cool 

down, then extract the hot water spout.  

 

Hold the spout with one hand by pressing the button and 
with the other, turn the cappuccino maker anticlockwise 
(fig. 24) and pull it downwards to remove it. 

3.  Also remove the steam nozzle by pulling it downwards 

(fig. 25). 

4.  Check the hole shown by the arrow in fig. 25 is not 

blocked. If necessary, clean with a pin. 

5.   Wash all parts of the cappuccino maker thoroughly with a 

sponge and warm water.

6.   Reinsert the nozzle and replace the cappuccino maker on 

the nozzle, turning it and pushing it upwards until it is 
attached. 

•  Do  not  use  solvents,  abrasive  detergents  or  alcohol  to

clean the coffee maker.

 

With De’Longhi bean to cup coffee makers, you need not 
use chemical products to clean the machine.  

•  None of the components can be washed in a dishwasher

apart from the milk container (D).

•  Do not use metal objects to remove encrustations or cof-

fee deposits as they could scratch metal or plastic surfac-
es. 

Cleaning the coffee grounds container
When “EMPTY GROUNDS CONTAINER” is displayed, the grounds 
container must be emptied and cleaned.  
Until the grounds container has been cleaned, the appliance 
continues to display the message and coffee cannot be made.
