8. Maintenance/cleaning
DANGER of electric shock
Always remove the plug from the power socket before beginning to clean the base
(11). Otherwise, there is a risk of electric shock.
Do not pour or spray any liquids onto the base (11) or immerse it into water or any
other liquids. Otherwise, there is a risk of electric shock and a fire hazard due to short
circuits.
DANGER of burn injuries
Wait until the canister (7) has cooled down completely before cleaning it. Otherwise
you could burn yourself.
WARNING of damage to property
Do not use any scratching or abrasive cleaning agents or abrasive objects (such as a
metal scourer) for cleaning purposes. Otherwise the milk frother may be damaged.
Do not clean the milk frother (7) and its accessories in the dishwasher, as this may
cause irreparable damage.
Ideally, cleaning is carried out directly after the canister (7) cools. This way, any milk
residues cannot dry.
8.1. Simple cleaning process:
Leave the whisk (4, 5) that was used in place.
Fill the canister (7) with water considering the MIN and MAX markings and place the lid (2)
onto it.
Allow the milk frother to run for around 30 seconds.
Next, rinse the canister (7) with plenty of clean water and rinse the lid (2) under running water.
8.2. Thorough cleaning process:
Remove the power cable (12) from the power socket.
Remove the whisk (4, 5) that was used.
Clean the interior of the canister (7) with warm water and some washing up-liquid. Use a
sponge or a soft cloth. Make sure to remove milk residue in and around the whisk drive shaft.
Next, rinse the canister (7) with plenty of clean water.
Remove the cover seal (3) from the lid (2) and clean the two parts in mild rinse water. Rinse
with clean water, dry both parts thoroughly and position the cover seal (3) back on the lid (2).
Clean whisks A and B (4, 5) in mild rinse water and rinse with clean water.
Next, rinse the canister (7) with plenty of clean water and rinse the lid (2) under running water.
Clean the outer surfaces, the base (11) and the power cable (12) with a soft, damp cloth,
using a mild detergent for stubborn stains.
Dry all of the parts thoroughly.
