User Manual for DeLonghi EC460

Hello, Jean -

Delonghi makes a number of different cappuccino machines. If you had stated the model number of the machine, I probably could have found you the manual for the homeowner's machine online.

I found a user's manual for the Delonghi ESAM5500. The manual has an illustration which shows where the grounds container for that machine is located. If the homeowner's cappuccino machine is not an ESAM5500, the grounds container for their machine may be in a similar location.

This is the link to the user manual for the Delonghi ESAM5500:
http://kavegepbolt.hu/shop_ordered/9160/pic/Saeco/DELONGHIESAM5500.pdf
It is a PDF document, so you will need Adobe Reader software (free).

Page 17 of the manual talks about how to clean the machine, including cleaning the grounds container. In the instructions part A9 (which is illustrated on Page 3 of the manual) is identified as the grounds container.

Just to be sure, if you can contact the homeowners, do so and ask them where the manual for their cappuccino machine manual is located, so you can refer to it and so that you do not accidentally damage the machine.

Best wishes.

I think I would start by contact the seller and ask why a brand new machine behaves like that.

The higher the concentration of fat in the milk the thicker the foam.
