13. SETTING WATER HARDNESS
The DESCALE message is displayed after a period of time estab-
lished according to water hardness.
The machine is set by default for a hardness value of 4. The ma-
chine can also be programmed according to the hardness of the
mains water in the various regions so that the machine needs to
be descaled less often.
13.1 Measuring water hardness
1. Remove the “TOTAL HARDNESS TEST” indicator paper (C1)
from its pack (attached to the English instructions).
2. Immerse the paper completely in a glass of water for one
second.
3. Remove the paper from the water and shake lightly. After
about a minute, 1, 2, 3, or 4 red squares form, depending
on the hardness of the water. Each square corresponds to
one level.
13.2 Setting water hardness
1. Press the MENU/ESC button (B2) to enter the menu;
2. Press (B9) or (B10) (g. 6) and select “Water
hardness”;
3. Conrm the selection by pressing the OK button (B3-g.
7);
4. Press or repeatedly to set the level as measured by the
indicator paper (C1) (see previous section).
5. Press the OK button to conrm the setting.
6. Press the MENU/ESC button to exit the menu.
The machine is now reprogrammed with the new water hard-
ness setting.
