11.1 Installing the Claris Cartridge
Make sure the C1500 is on and ready to make coffee.
a. Remove the cartridge from its bag and rinse under cold running water.
b. Open the water tank lid and screw cartridge on tightly (fig. 8).
c. Fill the water container about halfway with fresh, cold water.
d. Turn the Program Dial to position 7 and push the P button until the display
shows FILTER
e. Turn the Program Dial back to position 1.
f. Place a large container below the steam nozzle and turn the SW dial to the
hot water position. Let at least 20 ounces of water run through the steam
nozzle. This activates the granules in the Claris cartridge.
Please note: Some of the water might be slightly discolored. This is normal
and will not harm the machine. Discard this water.
Please note: The display will automatically remind you when to replace the
cartridge.
11.2 Replacing the CLARIS Cartridge
After approx. 50 liters (approx. 53 quarts) the display will show in the second
line: REPLACE FILTER.
Please note: During this message you can still use the machine. However, we
strongly recommend replacing the cartridge within the next few days.
a. Remove the old filter and install a new filter as described in chapter 11.1.
b. With the Program Dial pointing to position one, push and hold the P Button
for two to three seconds. The message REPLACE FILTER will disappear. The
machine starts measuring the water again and adjusts the filter counter auto-
matically.
Please note: If you do not use the machine for a prolonged period of time or if
you use less than 40 oz. of water a day, we recommend replacing the filter after
6 weeks. In this case the display will not remind you. Follow the instructions in
chapter 11.1. Then, you must reset the filter counter as follows:
• Turn the Program Dial to Position 7. The display should read HARDNESS /
FILTER.
• Push the P button once. The display reads HARDNESS / LEVEL –.
• Turn the Program Dial to position 1.
• Now turn the Program Dial again to position 7 and push the P button until
the display shows HARDNESS / FILTER.
• Turn the Program Dial back to position 1. The filter counter is now reset.
12. General Cleaning Instructions
• Never use sharp, abrasive materials or any chemicals to clean your machine.
• Wipe down the inside and outside housing of the machine with a damp cloth.
