Bypass
3.9. Waterlter
Function:
• Reduced limescale deposits which take longer to form.
• Improved water quality.
• Improved taste due to the ideal water hardness.
Lifespan/descalingperformance:
• - 10 ° dH
• 60 litres
• 2 months
To achieve the best possible operating mode consistency
over the total life span, the water is channelled using
a 3-stage bypass (A, B, C) depending on the degree of
hardness. See small image.

Milk
The milk is heated by the steam and taken
towards the emulsion chamber where it is
mixed with air and transformed into foam.
The steam passes through the
pipe creating a sucking eect
that pulls the milk upwards.
