Operating mode

The AquaPrima water filter takes effect in a number of ways: the charcoal (activated carbon) reduces the occurrence of substances that have a detrimental effect on the smell and the taste of water. The ion exchanger resin binds heavy metals, reduces the level of limestone and removes other pollutants. A special, porous filter retains minute particles from the water. The level of water hardness is reduced by 10°dH. The AquaPrima is yielding and is sufficient for 60 litres or for approx. 750 portions of coffee. It is food-safe and environmentally-friendly. A filter is included with the machine. Replacement filters can be ordered through customer service.

If the machine is operated with the AquaPrima water filter the “water filter – ON“ setting should be activated in the user settings. This results in only every second cycle of the water flow-through metre being registered as an impulse, so that the machine only needs to be descaled half as frequently. It is important that the device does not register whether the water filter has actually been installed; it is the user settings that are decisive. If the machine is operated without a filter it is essential for the water filter setting to be set at “OFF”.
