12.1 Programming water hardness

Running water is more or less hard, depending on the area. This coffee maker can be adjusted so that it will work optimally with the water hardness level, expressed on a scale from 1 to 4, of your area.

The appliance is already set to an average value (hardness3).

Before proceeding, you must check the water hardness of your area using the strip supplied with the appliance.

Quickly immerse (1 second) the strip into the water and shake slightly. After a minu- te, the strip shows the test results.

To programme this function, proceed as follows:

Press the button (22); the number of lit buttons indicates the programmed water hardness;

If you desire to change the water hardness level, press the button (22) repeatedly up to when the correct number of lit buttons are displayed, indicating the water hardness level.

Hardness 1 = buttons (22) and (23) lit Hardness 2 = buttons (22), (23) and (24) lit Hardness 3 = buttons (22), (23), (24) and (25) lit Hardness 4 = buttons (22), (23), (24), (25) and (26) lit

The hardness index matches the 1-4 squares on the strip.

12.2 Programming the rinsing cycle

Immediately after switching ON, the machine automatically eliminates any remaining water in the piping circuit to guarantee that the coffee is made with fresh water only.

To programme this function, proceed as follows:

Press the button (23); when the function is ON, the warning light (27) lights up.

12.3 Programming “Prebrewing”

The prebrewing process slightly dampens the coffee before brewing; this brings out the full aroma of the coffee and gives it an excellent taste.

To programme this function, proceed as follows:

Press the button (24); when the function is ON, the warning light (28) lights up.

Note: the manufacturer has already activated this function.

12.4 Programming “Pregrinding”

The pregrinding procedure makes the machine grind twice: the first time, for the type of selected coffee and, the second, for the next type of coffee (not yet selected). This function is only useful if you must prepare different types of coffee at the same time (for example, during a visit, party).

To programme this function, proceed as follows:

Press the button (25); when the function is ON, the warning light (29) lights up.
