The harder the water is, the more frequently the IMPRESSA needs to
be descaled. It is therefore important to adjust the water hardness.
The water hardness can be adjusted on a continuous scale between
1° dH and 30° dH. This can also be deactivated, which means that
the IMPRESSA will not let you know when it has to be descaled.

activated it, you will not be able to adjust the water
hardness.
