4. Setting the water hardness
Your IMPRESSA E10/20/25 heats up water. As a result, cal-
cification occurs during normal use, and this is indicated
automatically. Before using the IMPRESSA E10/20/25 for
the first time, it needs to be set to the hardness of the water
used. Use the supplied test sticks for this.
1° German hardness is equivalent to 1.79° French hardness.
The water hardness programming function is no longer
displayed if the filter has been activated.
The IMPRESSA E10/20/25 has 6 hardness degrees to select
from which are displayed while you are setting the water
hardness on your machine.
