Light is on, the machine monitors time and the number of brewings.
The green charcoal filter light will start blinking either after 6 weeks or after the Coffee Brewing Button has been turned on 60 times whichever comes first, reminding you to replace the cartridge.
If you make coffee once a day, the filter light will start flashing after 6 weeks. If you make coffee twice a day, the light will flash after 30 days. This will help you to plan the right amount of cartridges.
Attention: When you unplug the machine for more than 10 seconds or if you have a power failure, the electronic indicator loses its memory. Then it is best to replace the filter 6 weeks after first use.
Caution: Once the cartridge is activated you should never use it for longer than six weeks. Harmful bacteria
Replacement cartridges are available through your local Capresso dealer or by using the enclosed mail order form or through the website: www.capresso.com.
