the appliance is equipped with various features.
These features are explained below.
3. Set water hardness
Depending on water hardness lime scale may build up
in the appliance. This increases the appliance’s energy
consumption as lime scale on the heating element can
prevent the water heating eectively. To avoid damage
the appliance must be descaled regularly. The descaling
display helps you in this. If the CALC-button is
permanently lit this shows that the appliance needs to
be descaled.
The appliance is pre-set for a high level of water
hardness (level 4). You can find out the level of water
hardness in your area by asking your local water
provider or by using water hardness measuring strips
available in the shops. For softer water the descaling
display can be adjusted to descale less often.
•HolddowntheCALC-button and by briefly
pressing the m-button set the desired level of
water hardness. The hardness setting will then
show in the display
•Onceyouhavesetthedesiredlevelofwater
