Setting the water hardness level in your
machine can prevent scale build-up.
Scale build-up can affect the brewing flow of the
machine, the brewing temperature and the taste
of the coffee.
Again, to ensure good coffee results, it is
important to select the right water hardness
level before brewing coffee for the first time.
Follow the steps below:
WATER HARDNESS SETTING AND
FLUSHING FOR FIRST TIME USE
1. Ensure that the empty coffee basket and
empty carafe (with assembled lid) are
inserted into the machine.
2. Fill the water tank with fresh cold water to
the MAX mark on the water tank. Plug into
power outlet.
3. When first turned on, the machine will
show 'HARD' on LCD, asking for the water
hardness level (refer to important note
above). Press SELECT dial once. Dip the
water hardness test strip into the filled
water tank for 1 second, remove and wait
for 1 minute to reveal the result. Rotate
SELECT dial and press the dial to select
the level according to the number of red
dots shown on the strip. To reset water
hardness, please refer to FACTORY RESET
(page 19).
4. The machine will show 'FLUSH Unit'
on LCD. Press SELECT dial once. The
machine will dispense all the water from
the tank, through the system & into the
empty carafe. After flushing, empty the
basket and carafe.

BREWING A CARAFE
Ensure the brew basket is clean and the drip
stop seal in the bottom of the basket is clean
and free of coffee particles.
1. Select the correct basket & filter for the
amount of coffee you're making. When
brewing between 2 and 8 cups, we
recommend you use the Cone shaped filter
basket insert with paper filter (Cone paper
filter is not included). When brewing more
than 8 cups, use mesh basket filter or flat
bottom brew basket with large paper filter.
