AquaClean filter status indication
The status of the AquaClean filter is always visible in the 'Status' menu as a percentage.
-
If the status of the AquaClean filter 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 filter.
-
If the status of the filter is 0%, the machine asks you to replace the AquaClean filter every time you
switch on the machine.
Activating the AquaClean water filter (5 min.)
The machine does not automatically detect that a filter has been placed in the water tank. Therefore you
need to activate each new AquaClean water filter that you install in the 'Status' menu.
When the machine stops showing the filter activation message, you can still activate an AquaClean water
filter, but you will need to descale the machine first.
Your machine has to be completely limescale-free before you start using the AquaClean water filter.
Before activating the AquaClean water filter, 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 machine instead of water, which makes a lot of noise and
prevents the machine from being able to brew coffee.
1 Tap the 'Status' icon and scroll from left to right to select 'AquaClean'.
2 Tap the confirmation
screen.
Replacing the AquaClean water filter (5 min.)
After 95 liters of water have flowed through the filter, the filter will cease to work. The AquaClean status
indicator drops to 0% to remind you to replace the filter. If you do not replace the AquaClean water filter in
time, you can still replace the filter but you first need to descale the machine.
When the AquaClean status indicator drops to 0% or when the machine reminds you to replace the
AquaClean filter:
1 take out the old AquaClean water filter.
2 install a new filter and activate it as described in chapter 'Activating the AquaClean water filter (5 min.)'.
Replace the AquaClean water filter at least every 3 months, even if the machine does not yet indicate that
replacement is required.
