Activating the AquaClean filter
You need to activate every new AquaClean filter that you use. By activating the AquaClean filter, the
machine monitors the capacity of the AquaClean filter and the number of filters used. There are 3
ways to activate the AquaClean filter.
1. Activating the AquaClean filter during first installation
After switching on for the first time, the machine guides you through the first installation steps such as
filling the water tank, filling the water circuit and activating the AquaClean filter. Simply follow the
instructions on the screen.
2. Activating the AquaClean filter when prompted
Note: Replace the AquaClean filter as soon as the capacity has dropped to 0% and the filter icon
flashes quickly. Replace the AquaClean filter at least every 3 months, even if the machine has not yet
indicated that replacement is required.
Tip: We advise you to buy a new filter when the capacity has dropped to 10% and the filter icon starts
flashing slowly. This ensures that you can replace the filter when the capacity has dropped to 0%.
1 Press the MENU button, scroll to AQUACLEAN FILTER and press the OK button to confirm.
-
The display asks if you want to activate a new filter (Fig. 5).
2 Press the OK button to confirm.
-
The display automatically updates the number of filters used (Fig. 6).
Note: If you want to replace the AquaClean filter after 8 filters have been used, you first need to
descale the machine. Follow the instructions on the display.
3. Activating the AquaClean filter at any other time
You can start (re)using the AquaClean filter at any time by following the instructions below.
1 Press the MENU button, select MENU and press the OK button to confirm. Scroll to AQUACLEAN
FILTER. Press the OK button to confirm.
-
The display shows the numbers of AquaClean filters that have been installed previously from 0
to 8 filters (Fig. 6).
2 Select ON on the display and press the OK button to confirm (Fig. 7).
-
The display automatically updates the number of filters used (Fig. 8).
-
Then the 'machine ready' screen appears with the AquaClean 100% icon to indicate that the
filter has been installed (Fig. 9).
3 Dispense 2 cups of hot water (0.5 l) to complete the activation. Discard this water.
Note: In some situations the machine will tell you that you need to descale the machine before you
can install and activate a new AquaClean filter. This is because your machine has to be completely
limescale-free before you start to use the AquaClean filter. Follow the instructions on the screen.
Measuring water hardness
Use the water hardness test strip supplied to set the water hardness. Press the MENU button, select
MENU and scroll to select WATER HARDNESS.
1 Immerse the water hardness test strip in tap water for 1 second. Then wait for 1 minute.
2 Check how many squares have turned red.
3 Select the appropriate water hardness setting and press the OK button to confirm.
