19. 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.
19.1 Installing the filter
1. Remove the filter (C4) from the packaging.
2. Turn the date indicator disk (see fig. 30) 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 instal-
led, 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. 31).
4. Extract the tank (A18) from the appliance and fill with
water.
5. Insert the filter in the water tank and immerse it comple-
tely 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 (A7) (min.
capacity: 500 ml).
9. Deliver hot water by turning the hot water/steam dial
(B1) to the I position.
10. Deliver at least 500 ml of hot water, then turn the hot
water/steam dial
to the O position.
The filter is now active and you can use the coffee machine.
19.2 Replacing the filter
After two months (see date indicator) or when the appliance has
not been used for 3 weeks, you should replace the filter:
1. Extract the tank (A18) and exhausted filter (C4);
2. Take the new filter out of its packet and proceed as illus-
trated in points 2 to 10 in the previous section.
The new filter is now active and you can use the coffee machine.
