2. Activating the AquaClean filter when prompted

Note: Replace the AquaClean filter as soon as the capacity has dropped to 0% and the filter icon
flashes quickly. Replace the AquaClean filter at least every 3 months, even if the machine has not yet
indicated that replacement is required.
Tip: We advise you to buy a new filter when the capacity has dropped to 10% and the filter icon starts
flashing slowly. This ensures that you can replace the filter when the capacity has dropped to 0%.
1 Press the MENU button, scroll to AQUACLEAN FILTER and press the OK button to confirm.
-
The display asks if you want to activate a new filter (Fig. 5).
2 Press the OK button to confirm.
-
The display automatically updates the number of filters used (Fig. 6).
Note: If you want to replace the AquaClean filter after 8 filters have been used, you first need to
descale the machine. Follow the instructions on the display.

3. Activating the AquaClean filter at any other time

You can start (re)using the AquaClean filter at any time by following the instructions below.
1 Press the MENU button, select MENU and press the OK button to confirm. Scroll to AQUACLEAN
FILTER. Press the OK button to confirm.
-
The display shows the numbers of AquaClean filters that have been installed previously from 0
to 8 filters (Fig. 6).

The display automatically updates the number of filters used (Fig. 8).

3 Dispense 2 cups of hot water (0.5 l) to complete the activation. Discard this water.
Note: In some situations the machine will tell you that you need to descale the machine before you
can install and activate a new AquaClean filter. This is because your machine has to be completely
limescale-free before you start to use the AquaClean filter. Follow the instructions on the screen.
