Short Cord Instructions
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable
power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used
if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply
extension cord is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be
at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
2. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter
top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
unintentionally.
3. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be
grounding type 3-wire cord.
Line Cord Safety Tips
1. Never pull or yank on cord or the appliance.
2. To insert plug, grasp it rmly and guide it into outlet.
3. To disconnect appliance, grasp plug and remove it from outlet.
4. Before each use, inspect the line cord for cuts and/or abrasion marks.
If any are found, this indicates that the appliance should be serviced
and the line cord replaced. Please return it to an authorized service
representative.
5. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance, as this could place
undue stress on the cord where it enters the appliance and cause it to
fray and break.
DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY
DAMAGE OR IF APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS
WORKING ENTIRELY.
This appliance must be grounded while in use. CAUTION: To ensure
continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to properly

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE
Before using for the rst time:
Prior to initial use, clean the unit by following the instructions in the
cleaning and care section of this manual.
We recommend the use of a long life milk (UHT) with a high protein
content. For best results, the milk should be taken from the refrigerator
immediately before frothing. Do not heat any liquid other than milk in
this appliance.
Choosing Stirring Head
To avoid uneven heating and burning of milk, Do not operate the milk
frother without a frothing disc inserted into the milk jug. Use only one
stirring head at a time.
HEATING: use the smooth stirring head.
FROTHING AND HEATING: To froth and heat milk at the same time;
use the serrated head.
COLD-FROTHING: Use serrated head
Fill Amounts
Always observe the minimum mark and ensure the container is lled
with at least 120 ml of milk.
FROTHING: ll the container to a maximum of 350 ml (lower max
mark).
HEATING: ll the container to a maximum of 700 ml (upper max mark).
Heating or Frothing Milk
1. Place the base on a rm, level surface.
2. Remove the lid from the milk container.
3. Place the appropriate head onto the mounting protrusion inside the
bottom of the container. NOTE: Do not operate the milk frother without
a frothing disc inserted into the milk jug - this can cause uneven heating
and burning of the milk.
pg 4

4. Put the required amount of milk into the container. Always use cold
milk and ll the milk jug between the MIN and MAX level markings.
Overlling the jug may cause spillage. Under lling the jug prevents the
frothing disc from working properly.
5. Place the lid on the container
6. Use the temperature control to set the desired temperature or to select
the cold-frothing function (COLD). The “COLD” setting will operate for
60 seconds before automatically stopping. If desired, you can re-select
the “COLD” setting. NOTE: If the temperature setting is changed during
operation, the milk frother will stop at the new temperature selection. If a
lower temperature is selected mid-cycle and the milk has already exceeded
the lower temperature selected, the milk frother will immediately stop.
7. Insert the plug into a proper outlet. a beep will sound and the main
indicator lamp will start to ash.
8. Press the ON/OFF button.
9. A double beep will sound, the indicator lamp remains on and the motor
cooling system starts up.
10. The stirring process begins. When the milk has reached the selected
temperature, the milk frother will automatically stop and beep twice.
Frothing functions take between 2 -7 minutes depending on the
amount of milk used. NOTE: Do not remove the milk jug from the power
base during operation. Doing so may disrupt the frothing disc and cause
grinding. Before removing the jug always stop operation of the unit by
pressing the START /STOP push-dial. Operation of the unit has stopped
once the button surround has stopped ashing.
11. The main indicator lamp ashes, and a number of beep signals will
sound.
12. You can now remove the milk container from the base. Use a suitable
spoon to take o the milk froth. NOTE: Aer 30 seconds of non-use, the
milk frother will enter standby mode. The button surround will cease to
illuminate. To reactivate the unit, turn or press the START/STOP push-dial.
13. The cooling system continues to run for a brief period. The main
indicator lamp stops ashing aer about three minutes.
14. The power cord can now be unplugged from the wall.
NOTE: if the appliance has not been disconnected from the outlet the ON/
OFF switch must be pressed twice to start a new operating cycle.

FUNCTION MILK AMOUNT
Cappuccino 350 ml
Latte 700 ml
Aer a cold-frothing cycle, a new stirring and heating cycle may be started
immediately.
Boil Dry, Overheating Protection - This unit is equipped with overheat-
ing protection. The unit will automatically shut o if the milk jug over-
heats. This is caused by insucient amount of milk in the milk jug or aer
too many consecutive uses. If this occurs, 3 alerts will sound. Unplug the
unit from the power outlet, wait approximately 5 minutes for the milk
frother to cool down. To speed up the cooling process, ll the milk jug
with cool water. Once adequately cooled, you will be able to reactive the
milk frother and recommence frothing
Tips
To achieve a thicker froth, go through a cold-frothing cycle rst,
followed by a hot-frothing cycle.
Making Hot Chocolate: The appliance is also suitable for preparing
hot chocolate. Proceed as described in the Heating or frothing section
of this manual. Fit the smooth stirring head into place and set the
temperature selector to 113˚F. As soon as the milk has been heated to
113˚F (as indicated by the corresponding beep signals), take off the lid
and add the required amount of cocoa powder. Set the temperature
selector to 149˚F and press the ON/OFF switch again. To prevent any
blockage or congestion, do not use grated chocolate or chocolate flakes
when making cocoa.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Milk is not foaming Milk is warm or too
hot to foam.
• Use cold, fresh (or freshly
opened) milk.
• Do not re-foam already heated
milk.
• Try reducing the quantity of
milk in the milk jug.
• Try a dierent milk. Some milks
and milk brands produce more
froth than others. For example,
we have found that some soy
milks produce froth while others
do not. Experiment with dierent
milk options and frothing discs to
achieve the desired result.
• Adding dense ingredients like
thick syrups, heavy powders
and large akes can signicantly
reduce the amount of foam. This
is normal.

pg 8
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Milk is not heating • Ensure the milk jug is correctly
positioned onto the power base.
• Ensure that the milk frother
has been properly activated.
Frothing has started once the
milk frother beeps once and the
button surround slowly ashes. If
the milk frother does not do this,
re-push the START | STOP push-
dial once, rmly.
• Increase the temperature by
turning the START /STOP push-
dial to the right.
Frothing disc is not
moving or is dislodged
• Frothing disc is not
inserted correctly.
• Frothing disc
has dislodged during
operation.
• Ingredients have
been added too
quickly.
1. Stop operation.
2. Remove liquid from milk jug.
3. Ensure the frothing disc is
securely and correctly attached.
Once attached, turn the frothing
disc with your ngers, it should
turn freely. If it doesn’t, contact
Souvia Customer Service.
4. Rell milk jug with liquid.
5. Start frothing. Add ingredients
(if desired) slowly and in small
quantities aer the milk has
already started swirling.
3 Beeps sounding The milk frother may
be overheated.
1. Unplug the cord from the
power outlet.
2. Remove liquid from milk jug.
Rinse the milk jug and frothing
disc with cold water then dry
thoroughly.
3. Ensure the milk frother has not
been operated for 5 minutes. This
allows the internal components
to cool.
4. Ensure the frothing disc is
securely and correctly attached.
Once attached, turn the frothing
disc with your ngers, it should
turn freely. If it doesn’t, contact
Souvia Customer Service
5. Recommence frothing.
Humming noise This is normal. It is the
cooling fan preventing
the milk frother from
overheating.
During this time, you may still use
the milk frother unless the Boil
Dry Overheat Protection as been
activated (3 beeps will be heard).
Follow the instructions above.
