SETTING WATER HARDNESS 

The   light comes on after a period of time established accord-
ing to water hardness. 
The machine is set by default for a hardness value of 4. The ma-
chine can also be programmed according to the hardness of the 
mains water in the various regions so that the machine needs to 
be descaled less often.

Measuring 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.  

Setting water hardness

1.  With the appliance off (standby), but the main switch 

pressed (fig. 4);

2.  Press the  

 icon (B14) until the icon lights up, togeth-

er with the lights indicating the current setting;

2.  Press the  

icon (B13) to select the hardness identi-

fied with the indicator paper;

3.  Press the 

icon (B12) to confirm (or  

 (B10) to 

exit without making the modification). 

The machine is now reprogrammed with the new water hard-
ness setting.

WATER SOFTENER FILTER (*CERTAIN MODELS 

ONLY) 

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 (C3) from the packaging.
2.   Turn the date indicator disk (see fig. 29) until the next two 

months of use are displayed.

 Please note    

The filter lasts about two months if the appliance is used nor-
mally. 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. 30).

4.   Extract the tank (A18) from the appliance and fill with 

water.

5.   Insert the filter in the water tank and immerse it complete-

ly for about ten seconds, sloping it and pressing it lightly to 
enable the air bubbles to escape (fig. 31).

6.   Insert the filter in the filter housing (fig. 32) and press as 

far as it will go. 

7.   Close the tank with the lid (fig. 33), then replace the tank 

in the machine.

8.   Position a container under the hot water spout (min. ca-

pacity: 500 ml).
