WATER SOFTENER FILTER (IF FITTED)
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 Services.
To use the filter correctly, follow the instructions below.
Installing the filter
1. Remove the filter from the packaging.
2. Turn the date indicator disk (fig. 37) until the next two
months of use are displayed.
Please note
The filter lasts about two
months if the machine is used
normally. 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 min-
ute (fig. 38).

will go (fig. 40A)
7. Close the tank with the lid, then put the tank back in the

When you install the filter, it must be activated delivering hot
water until it flows regularly.

After two months (see date indicator) or when the machine has
not been used for 3 weeks, you should replace the filter with a
new one, repeating the procedure for the installation.
