12.6 Setting water hardness
The appliance is preset to display the descale message after a set period of time, based on a set water
hardness. You can make descaling less frequent by programming the appliance based on the actual lime
content in the water used. Proceed as follows:
• Remove the "Total Hardness Test" strip from its packaging then dip it fully in the water for a few
seconds, Remove it and wait around 30 seconds (until it changes colour and a number of red dots are
formed);
• Turn the appliance on by pressing the button (fig. 4).
• Press the button then press the button repeatedly until the appliance displays:
WATER HARDNESS 4
• Press the button repeatedly until the number coincides with the number of red squares on the
test strip (for example, if there are 3 red squares on the test strip, press the button until WATER
HARDNESS 3 is displayed).
• Press the button to confirm the value. The coffee maker is now programmed to provide the
descaling warning when necessary, based on the actual hardness of the water.
