uid from specialist retailers or from the
AEG/Electrolux Service Line.

The descaling program automatically
performs a series of deliveries and
pauses, so as to remove the lime scale
deposits from inside the coffee maker.

After around 30 minutes, when the
light comes on, turn the steam knob
half a turn clockwise (Fig. 8) until it
stops.
The machine must be rinsed so as to
eliminate the residues of descaling

Setting the water hardness
The
light 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 neces-
sary, this period of operation can be
extended, thus making the descaling
operation less frequent, by program-
ming the machine based on the actual
lime content in the water used. You
can use the enclosed test strip to
determine the water hardness, or con-
tact your local water supply company.
Determining water hardness
0
Dip the test strip in cold water for
around 1 second. Shake off the excess
water, and gauge the hardness by
means of the pink bands.
No
pink bands or
one
pink band:
Hardness level 1, soft
up to 1.24 mmol/l, or
up to 7° German hardness, or
up to 12.6° French hardness
Two
pink bands:
Hardness level 2, medium hard
up to 2.5 mmol/l, or
up to 14° German hardness, or
up to 25.2° French hardness
