The machine has been adjusted on a 25°òH
value, which causes the warning light to switch
on after 150 l approx.
Should it be necessary, the water hardness value
may be exactly programmed, following the
instructions shown at page 82.
The following adjustments are possible:
Hardness 4: high water hardness, over 29°òH
(14°dH), i.e. 80 l water approx.
Hardness 3:medium water hardness, approx.
20-29°òH (7-14°dH), approx. 150 l water
passage.
Hardness 2:soft water, approx. 12-20°òH
(4-7°dH) approx. 300 l water passage
Hardness 1:very soft water, less than 10°òH
(3°dH), approx. 500 l water passage
In hard water regions, a filter should be used both
to improve the coffee quality or to protect the
machine, thus reducing the descaling frequency.
Note: for this purpose, use a descaling product
suitable for coffee machines.
Never use vinegar!
Descaling can be performed in two ways:
Automatic descaling
Select this mode in the programming menu (see
page 84).
By means of keys
, move the asterisk at
the end of the line on the menu item Descaling
and confirm the selection with the ENT key.

package). Switch the machine on the programming
mode. Place a large container under the steam/
hot water spout and open slowly the steam knob.
The automatic descaling starts: Small amounts of
descaling solution are pumped into the circuit.
Then the pump stops to let the solution take effect.
During this phase, the following message is
displayed:
"MACHINE IS "
"DESCALING "
After approx. 45 minutes, when the procedure is
accomplished, the following message will be

Press the hot water key again. Go back to
programming function by pressing the ENT key.
Note: By pressing the ESC key, it is possible to
quit descaling procedure.
Reset descaling message
In programming function, by pressing keys
,
move the asterisk till the end of the line on the menu
Sign. Descal and confirm the selection with
ENT button.
The following message will be displayed:
"RESET DESCALING "
"NO "
By means of the same keys , it is possible
to modify the value; Yes or no.
Through this reset operation, the internal counters
of the two water systems are reset and the
message DESCALE is erased.
If the function
