Display
You can choose from the following
options:
–
On: The display will always show the
date and time even when the system
is turned off.
–
Off: The display is dark when the
system is turned off.
–
Night dimming: The date and time
are only displayed between the
hours of 5 a.m. and 11 p.m.
^
Touch the option you want and then
"OK".
Depending on which option you
select, the coffee machine may
consume more energy. This is
indicated by a message on the
display.
"Set-up successful" appears in the
display.
"Fill and replace the water container"
appears in the display.
^
Fill the water container with cold,
fresh tap water.
Water hardness
Water hardness is an indication of the
amount of minerals dissolved in water.
The higher the mineral content, the
harder the water. And the harder the
water, the more often the coffee
machine will need to be descaled.
The coffee machine monitors the
quantity of water and steam used. The
number of beverages that can be
dispensed before the machine needs to
be descaled will depend on the water
hardness level set.
Set the water hardness level on the
coffee machine to the water hardness
level for the local area to ensure that
the machine functions correctly and is
not damaged. This will ensure that the
reminder to descale the machine will
appear in the display at the correct
time. If unsure of your water hardness
contact your local water authority.
You can program four hardness levels
on the machine:
