WATER SOFTENER FILTER

Certain models are fitted with a water softener filter. If this is not the case with your model, you are recommended to purchase one from De’Longhi Customer Experience.

To use the filter correctly, follow the instructions below.

SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS

The DESCALE message is displayed after a period of time establi- shed according to the water hardness setting.

The machine is set by default for a hardness value of 4.

The machine can also be programmed according to the hardness of the mains water in the your area so that the machine needs to be descaled less often.

Measuring the water hardness

1.Remove the “TOTAL HARDNESS TEST” indicator paper from its pack (attached to the English instructions).

2.Immerse the paper completely in a glass of water for one second.

3.Remove the paper from the water and shake lightly. After about a minute, 1, 2, 3, or 4 red squares form, depending on the hardness of the water. Each square corresponds to one level.

Installing the filter

1. Remove the filter from the packaging.

2. Turn the date indicator disk (fig. 44) until the next two months of use are displayed.

Please note

The filter lasts about two months if the appliance is used

44normally. If the coffee machine is left unused with the filter in-

stalled, it will last a maximum of three weeks.

3.To activate the filter, run tap water through the hole in the filter as shown in the figure until water comes out of the openings at the side for more than a minute (fig. 45).
