Setting the water hardness

This function allows the hardness of the water used to
be set, enabling the machine to indicate the appropriate
timings for the descaling cycle.
Warning. To set the water hardness, careful-
ly read the contents of Chapter 11.
The hardness of tap water varies from region to re-
gion.
For this reason, the appliance can be set according to
the hardness of the water in the region where it is to be
used, expressed on a scale of 0 to 4.
By default, the appliance is set to a standard value
(hardness 3).

10.9 Descaling fi lter (BRITA)
To brew a perfect coffee, water is an essential ingre-
dient, no less important than the correct roast level of
the coffee. It should always be clear and fresh.
Thanks to its revolutionary technology, the descaling fi l-
ter purifi es tap water, eliminating all harmful substances
without removing important minerals.
The descaling fi lter should be replaced whe-
never indicated by the machine.
Before descaling, the descaling fi lter should
be removed from the water tank.
For correct installation of the descaling fi lter, please
follow the indications on the packaging of the fi lter.
The fi lter should then be washed.
Access the service menu as described in section 11.1
and view the fi lter washing menu.
