instructed to do so (see 5.3).
Operating without a filter
If you no longer wish to use the
filter, do not forget to adjust the
water hardness settings.
Important:
Please note that the
following programs can only be set
if the mashine is switched to ON.
You can program the following

ECO-mode.
4.2 Water hardness
According to the water hardness in
your region, or if you have not
inserted a filter (see chapter 4.1),
sooner or later the machine needs
descaling. So that the system can
indicate accurately when descal -
ing is necessary, you must enter
the correct water hardness sett -
ings before first use.
The default setting is level 3.
First, test your water with the test
strips provided:
➔
Dip the strip into the water and
then shake it lightly off.
➔
After about a minute you can
read the result by counting the red
dots on the test strip.

The settings corresponding to
the different levels of hardness are
