Your local water authority will be able to tell you the hardness

of water in your area. Alternatively, you can measure the

hardness yourself using the enclosed test strip:

^ Dip the strip in your drinking water for approximately a

second, then shake off any excess water. The result will be

evident after about a minute.

If the water is harder than 40 °d / 7.0 mmol/l, limescale will

build up more rapidy than with soft water. Descaling will

need to be carried out more regularly than stated to

prevent limescale damage to the machine.

The machine has four programmable levels:
