Philips EP Series
AquaClean water lter
The AquaClean lter is designed to reduce limescale deposits in the coee machine and provide ltered
water to preserve the aroma and avor of each cup of coee. By using a series of  AquaClean lters, there
is no need to descale the machine for  cups (It depends both on the type of coee used, rinsing and
cleaning programs).
We recommend installing the water lter AquaClean the rst use of the machine to the maximum before
using  L of water. The machine display will indicate when the lter needs to be replaced. The maximum limit
is equivalent to  L of water.
The conditions related to the lter work environment (water, therefore, an active environment for bacteria
and microorganisms), require the replacement with a minimum frequency (we suggest  months from the
activation to ensure the best performance). The lter starts’ working from the time is lled with water and
continues working even with the machine o. It cannot be deactivated manually, as it must end its life cycle.
At the lter activation the display shows the icon with the percentage of use:
- Initially % then decreasing.
When the autonomy of the current lter becomes less than  L of water the
display shows:
- The icon ashing slowly. It means %.
When the autonomy of the current lter becomes less than  L of water the
display shows
- The icon ashing quickly. It means %.
After a maximum of  L of water supplied the ashing light turn o and the
machine needs to be descaled.

If after descaling or after the use of a lter this is not reactivated , the machine recognizes the water
hardness setting and calculates as in the table below
Descaling cycle frequency
Hardness WATER HARDNESS Without water lter Not reactivating the lter
1 Soft (up to 7°dH) 240 litres (480,000 pulses) 210 litres (420,000 pulses)
2 Medium (7° - 14°dH) 120 litres (240,000 pulses) 105 litres (210,000 pulses)
3 Hard (15° - 21°dH) 60 litres (120,000 pulses) 52.5 litres (105,000 pulses)
4 Very hard (over 21°dH) 30 litres (60,000 pulses) 26.25 litres (52,500 pulses)
The default water hardness level is 4. Each litre of water corresponds to approximately 2,000 pulses.
