5Press the on/off button to switch on the machine again. The AquaClean reminders are now deactivated.
Note: The activation of a new AquaClean filter will automatically re-activate the AquaClean reminders.
Setting the water hardness
We advise you to adjust the water hardness to the water hardness in your region for optimal
performance and a longer lifetime of the machine. This also prevents you from having to descale the
machine too often. The default water hardness setting is 4: hard water.
Use the water hardness test strip supplied in the box to determine the water hardness
in your region:
1Immerse the water hardness test strip in tap water or hold it under the tap for 1 second (Fig. 46).
2Wait 1 minute. The number of squares on the test strip that turn red indicate the water hardness (Fig.
47).
Set the machine to the correct water hardness:
1Press the on/off button to switch off the machine.
2When the machine is switched off, tap and hold the aroma strength icon until all lights in the icon go on
(Fig. 2).
3Tap the aroma strength icon 1, 2, 3 or 4 times. The number of lights that are on should be the same as
the number of red squares on the test strip (Fig. 48). When there are no red squares on the test strip (so
all squares are green) please select 1 light.
4When you have set the correct water hardness, press the start/stop button.
Since you only set the water hardness once, the aroma strength function is used to select the water
hardness. This does not affect the aroma strength of the drinks you make afterwards.
Descaling procedure (30 min.)
Please use Philips descaler only. Under no circumstances should you use a descaler based on sulfuric acid,
hydrochloric acid, sulfamic or acetic acid (vinegar) as this may damage the water circuit in your machine and
not dissolve the limescale properly. Not using the Philips descaler will void your warranty. Failure to descale
the appliance will also void your warranty. You can buy Philips descaling solution in the online shop at
www.philips.com/coffee-care.
When the Calc / Clean light switches on, you need to descale the machine.
1Make sure that the machine is switched on.
2If attached remove LatteGo or milk frother.
3Remove the drip tray and the coffee grounds container, empty them and put them back into place.
4Remove the water tank and empty it. Then remove the AquaClean water filter.
5Pour the whole bottle of Philips descaler in the water tank and then fill it with water up to the Calc /
Clean indication (Fig. 49). Then place it back into the machine.
6Place a large container (1.5 l) under the coffee dispensing spout and the water spout.
7Press the Calc / Clean icon for 3 sec. and then press the start/stop button.
8The first phase of the descaling procedure starts. The descaling procedure lasts approx. 30 minutes and
consists of a descaling cycle and a rinsing cycle. During the descaling cycle the Calc / Clean light flashes to
show that the descaling phase is in progress.
9Let the machine dispense the descaling solution until the display reminds you that the water tank is
empty.
