Answer 2

I have a DeLonghi Magnifica 3300 machine, so maybe it's similar:) ..

Make your coffee as usual.  

1) Fill a metal container with about 3.5 oz. of cold milk

2) Move the milk frother to the outside of the machine

3) Press the steam function button.  It will start flashing to indicate that it's heating up

4) When the light remains on steadiy, the temperature is ready to steam...immediately (within no more than 2 min - or it will switch back), put the tip of the frother into the container of milk.  

5) Turn the steam control dial half-turn clockwise until it stops.    The steam released will make the milk froth increase in volume.

6) when it stops, put the the steam control dial back where it was...
