To avoid hazards, repairs must be carried out by customer service. Before cleaning, disconnect from power and let cool. Do not clean the base with liquids or immerse it. The base's electrical connection must be protected from liquids. Use only on the designated base. Misuse can cause injury. Always use the handle as surfaces can be hot. Not intended for external timers or remote control systems. Suitable for domestic and similar applications (staff kitchens, offices, agricultural environments, hotels, etc.). Can be used by children 8+ and persons with reduced capabilities if supervised and instructed. Keep packaging away from children (suffocation risk). Check appliance for defects before each use. Do not use if dropped or if the power cord is damaged. Solely for heating/frothing milk, hot chocolate, cocoa. Do not put other liquids or solids in the container. Do not leave unattended. Observe min/max marks. Ensure the min mark is covered by milk to prevent overheating. Overfilling can cause overflow. Lid must always be fitted. Do not cover ventilation slots. Use only original accessories. Place on a firm, level surface. Keep away from open flames or hot surfaces. Do not let the cord hang free. Always unplug before cleaning, after use, or in case of malfunction. Pull the plug, not the cord.

Preparation

Turn the rotary control to switch on the appliance and select the desired function:

• Warm frothing [warm frothing icon] or heating milk [heating milk icon]
• Hot chocolate / cocoa [hot chocolate icon]

Press [start button] to begin preparation.

Note: If the appliance is not in standby mode, the [start button] button must be pressed twice.

The program starts. For cocoa and hot chocolate, add the desired amount of cocoa powder or chocolate (see Preparation Instructions). Once processing is complete, heating and stirring stop automatically. You can now remove the milk container from the base. Pour out the prepared food or use a spoon to remove milk froth. Do not leave residues. Unplug the power cord after use. Allow the appliance to cool and clean it before starting a new cycle.

Preparation Instructions

Milk froth:

We recommend using milk with a high protein content. For best results, milk should be taken from the refrigerator just before frothing. For thicker froth, first do a cold-frothing cycle, then a hot-frothing cycle.

Hot chocolate / cocoa:

To prepare chocolate drinks from milk and chocolate or cocoa. Grate chocolate finely before preparation. Alternatively, break chocolate into pieces of at least 5 x 4 cm. Caution: Do not use melted chocolate! Add chocolate/cocoa only after the program has started and the milk is being stirred, otherwise the stirring tool may jam. Recommended amounts: 200 ml milk → approx. 15-20 g; 350 ml milk → approx. 30-35 g.

Interrupting a Cycle

The heating or stirring process can be stopped at any time by pressing the [stop button] button.

Automatic Switch-off

The appliance switches off automatically two minutes after non-use.

Cleaning and Care

Always unplug the appliance and let it cool before cleaning. To avoid electric shock, do not clean the base or power cord with water or immerse them. Clean the base with a soft, damp cloth and detergent. Clean the milk container, stirring tools, and lid after each use with hot water and detergent, or in the dishwasher. Use a brush for the serrated stirring tool if needed. Dry all parts thoroughly. Do not use abrasive or concentrated cleaning agents.
