down it will be necessary to carry out this rinsing function

6. Adjusting for water hardness
The water is heated inside the machine. With use, this leads to
calcium deposits (furring) forming on the machine. This will be
automatically indicated on the display.
For this reason, it is necessary to adjust the machine to the
hardness of your local water before you use it for the first time.
Use the enclosed test-sticks for this purpose.
1° water hardness on the German scale represents 1.79° on
the French scale.
The machine has got 5 hardness settings to choose from. While
adjusting the chosen grade is shown on the display.
The symbols on the display mean:
