The
light (chap. 12 - point 5) switches on after a preset period of operation,
set in the factory, considering the maximum quantity of lime scale that may be
contained in the mains water. If necessary, this period of operation can be exten-
ded, thus making the descaling operation less frequent, by programming the machi-
ne based on the actual lime content in the water used. Proceed as follows:
