Please note!
If the descaling cycle is not completed correctly (e.g. lack of elec-
tricity) we recommend repeating the cycle.
SETTING WATER HARDNESS
The DESCALE message is displayed after a period of time estab-
lished according to water hardness.
The machine is set by default for a hardness value of 4.
The machine 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.
