Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Frother does not start. | Not plugged in; power outage; frother not correctly placed on base. | Check power connection; ensure frother is properly seated on the power base. |
| Milk is not frothing or frothing poorly. | Incorrect whisk used; milk level too high/low; type of milk used. | Ensure frothing whisk (with coil) is used. Adjust milk level between MIN and lower MAX line. Use whole milk (fat content > 3%) for best results. |
| Milk is not heating. | Incorrect whisk used; frother is still hot from previous use (overheat protection). | Ensure heating whisk (without coil) is used. Allow the frother to cool down to 52°C (125.6°F) before attempting to heat milk again. |
| Milk overflows. | Milk level exceeds MAX line. | Do not fill milk above the indicated MAX lines for frothing or heating. |
