First installation
For first installation, follow the instructions on the separate quick start guide.
Note: This machine has been tested with coffee. Although it has been
carefully cleaned, there may be some coffee residues left. We guarantee,
however, that the machine is absolutely new.
Note: You can install the AquaClean filter during the first installation
procedure (see separate quick start guide). If you skip installation of the
AquaClean filter at first use, you can install it later by entering the menu.
AquaClean filter
The AquaClean filter is designed to reduce limescale deposits in your coffee
machine and provide filtered water to preserve the aroma and flavor of each
cup of coffee. If you use a series of 8 AquaClean filters as indicated in this
user manual, you don't have to descale your machine for 5000 cups.
Note: Your machine has to be completely limescale-free before you start to
use the AquaClean filter. If you did not activate the filter during first
installation, you need to descale the machine before you activate the filter.

times, the machine reminds you to descale it.
1 For instructions on how to prepare the AquaClean filter for use, see the
separate quick start guide.
Note: Shake the AquaClean filter for about 5 seconds, immerse it upside
down in a jug with cold water and wait until no more air bubbles come
out.
