20. WATER SOFTENER FILTER
Certain models are fitted with a water softener filter (C4). If this
is not the case with your model, you are recommended to pur-
chase one from De’Longhi Customer Services.
To use the filter correctly, follow the instructions below.
20.1 Installing the filter
1. Remove the filter (C4) from the packaging. The date indica-
tor disk varies according to the filter provided (fig.30);
2. Turn the date disk to display the next 2 months of use.
Please note
The filter lasts about two months if the machine is used normal-
ly. If the coffee machine is left unused with the filter installed, it
will last a maximum of 3 weeks.
3. To activate the filter, run tap water through the hole in the
filter as shown in fig. 31 until water comes out of the open-
ings at the side for more than a minute;
4. Extract the tank (A17) from the machine 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. 32).
6. Insert the filter in the filter housing (A18) and press as far
as it will go (fig.33);
