Tips for frothing milk

■ Froth only cow's milk with this appliance. Other types of milk

can only be frothed to a certain extent or may cause the

appliance to overﬂow.

■ Low-fat milk might not froth as well. Therefore, use milk with a

fat content of 3.5% or 1.5% when possible.

■ Well-cooled milk can be frothed better than warm milk.

■ Do not froth the milk a second time, otherwise it may burn.

IB_294465_SMAI550A2_LB9.indb 8 19.02.18 09:41

US-EN │ 9 ■

SMAI 550 A2

■ Leave frothed milk to stand for about 30 seconds before you

add the foam to cappuccino, espresso, etc. This allows the

larger bubbles to burst and the still liquid milk sinks to the

bottom. You can then use the ﬁne foam.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before cleaning the appliance,

disconnect the power plug from the power socket! Otherwise,

there is a risk of electric shock!

Never open any parts of the housing. There are no serviceable

parts whatsoever inside. When the housing is open, there is a risk

of a potentially fatal electrical shock.

Never immerse the base in water or other liquids!

Allow the appliance to cool

suﬃciently before cleaning it. Risk of burns!

Do not use abrasive or caustic

cleaning agents. They can attack the surface and damage the

appliance beyond repair.

Ideally, clean the appliance directly after cooling, so that milk

residues cannot dry onto it.

For the ﬁrst, rough cleaning, ﬁll the jug  with water and a little

detergent (the used whisk  is still ﬁtted). Pay attention to the

MIN and MAX marks.

Start the appliance so that the whisk swirls through the water.

Afterwards, rinse the appliance out with plenty of clean water.
