Water lter
To switch the appliance o󰀨 manually before
this, press the k o󰀨 / i button (13).
The appliance rinses and switches o󰀨.
N.B.: If the appliance is being used for the
rst time, a service program has been run,
or the appliance has not been operated
for a long period, the rst beverage will
not have the full aroma and should not be
consumed.
When using the espresso machine for the
rst time, you will achieve a suitably thick
and stable “crema” only after the rst few
cups have been dispensed.
After extended use, water droplets may
form on the ventilation slots. This is normal.
Water lter
A water lter can prevent scale buildup.
Before a new water lter is used, it must be
rinsed. To do this, proceed as follows:
■ Press the water lter rmly into the
water tank with the aid of the measuring
spoon (19).
■ Fill the water tank (17) with water up to
the max mark.
■ Press and hold the k o󰀨 / i button (13)
for at least three seconds. The menu
opens.
■ Press the k o󰀨 / i button (13) repeatedly
until the display shows No/Oldfilter.
■ Select Activate filter with the upper
rotary knob (15).
■ Press the start button (10).
■ Place a receptacle with a capacity of
0.5 litres under the outlet (6a).
■ Press the start button (10).
■ Water will now ow through the lter to
rinse it.
■ Empty the container.
The appliance is ready to use once more.
Note: Rinsing the lter simultaneously
activates the setting for the Change filter!
display.
The lter is no longer e󰀨ective when the
Change filter! display appears, or at
the latest after 2 months. It needs to be
replaced for reasons of hygiene and so
that there is no build-up of limescale (this
could damage the appliance). Replacement
lters can be obtained from retailers or from
customer service (see “Accessories”). If
no new lter is used, turn the filter setting
to No / Old.
Note: You can use the lter indicator to
mark the month in which you inserted the
lter. You can also mark the month in which
you will need to replace the lter next (at
the latest after two months).
Note: If the appliance has not been used
for a prolonged period (e.g. vacation) the
lter should be rinsed before the appliance
is used again. To do so, dispense a cup of
hot water and pour it away.
