Setting the water hardness
We advise you to adjust the water hardness setting to the water hardness
level 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 for1
1 second.
2Wait 1 minute. The number of squares on the test strip that turn red indicate2
the water hardness.
Set the machine to the correct water hardness:
3Tap the Settings icon and scroll from left to right to select 'Water hardness'. 3
4Select the water hardness level. The number of red squares selected on the
4
display should be the same as the number of red squares on the test strip.
5When you have set the correct water hardness, tap the conrmation icon5
to conrm.
Adjusting the grind setting
You can change the coee strength with the grind setting knob inside the bean
container. The lower the grind setting, the ner the coee beans are ground and
the stronger the coee becomes. There are 12 dierent grind settings you can
choose from.
The machine has been set up to get the best taste out of your coee beans.
Therefore we advise you not to adjust the grind setting until you have brewed
100-150 cups (approx. 1 month of use).
You need to brew 2 to 3 drinks before you can taste the full dierence.
Do not turn the grind setting knob more than one notch at a time to prevent
damage to the grinder.

moment.

credentials, software update preferences, Saeco credentials, Amazon credentials.
AquaClean water lter
Your machine is AquaClean enabled. You can place the AquaClean water lter in
the water tank to preserve the taste of your coee. It also diminishes the need
for descaling by reducing limescale build-up in your machine. You can purchase
an AquaClean water lter from your local or online retailer or from authorized
service centers.
AquaClean lter status indication
The status of the AquaClean lter is always visible in the 'Status' menu as a
percentage.
-If the status of the AquaClean lter is 10% or less, the screen shows a -
message for 2 seconds each time you switch on the machine. This message
advises you to buy a new lter.
- If the status of the lter is 0%, the machine asks you to replace the AquaClean-
lter every time you switch on the machine.
Activating the AquaClean water lter (5 min.)
The machine does not automatically detect that a lter has been placed in the
water tank. Therefore you need to activate each new AquaClean water lter that
you install in the 'Status' menu.
When the machine stops showing the lter activation message, you can still
activate an AquaClean water lter, but you will need to descale the machine rst.
Your machine has to be completely limescale-free before you start using the
AquaClean water lter.
Before activating the AquaClean water lter, it has to be prepared by soaking it
in water as described below. If you don't do this, air might be drawn into the
15

machine instead of water, which makes a lot of noise and prevents the machine
from being able to brew coee.
1Tap the 'Status' icon and scroll from left to right to select 'AquaClean'.1
2Tap the conrmation icon again when the activation screen appears.2
Follow the instructions on the screen.
Replacing the AquaClean water lter (5 min.)
After 95 liters of water have owed through the lter, the lter will cease to
work. The AquaClean status indicator drops to 0% to remind you to replace
the lter. If you do not replace the AquaClean water lter in time, you can still
replace the lter but you rst need to descale the machine.
When the AquaClean status indicator drops to 0% or when the machine reminds
you to replace the AquaClean lter:
1take out the old AquaClean water lter. 1
2install a new lter and activate it as described in chapter 'Activating the 2
AquaClean water lter (5 min.)'.
Replace the AquaClean water lter at least every 3 months, even if the
machine does not yet indicate that replacement is required.
