10.4 SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS
The light switches on after a preset period of operation, set in the
factory, considering the maximum quantity of lime scale that may be contained in the mains water.
If necessary, this period of operation can be extended, thus making the
descaling operation less frequent, by programming the machine based on
the actual lime content in the water used.
Proceed as follows:
• after having removed the "Total hardness test" strip (enclosed with
this booklet) from its packaging, dip it in the water for a few
seconds (Fig. 33), then pull it out and wait around 30 seconds (until
it changes colour and a number of red dots are formed);
• check that the machine is off (all the indicator lights are off);
•press the button (Fig. 14) and hold it for at least 5 seconds.
The four lights , , and come on.
•press the button (Fig.18) repeatedly until the number of lights
that are on coincides with the number of red squares on the test strip
(for example, if there are 3 red squares on the test strip, press the
button until 3 indicator lights come on, , and ).
•press the button to save the data. The coffee maker is now
programmed to provide the descaling warning when effectively
necessary.
