AquaClean water filter

The AquaClean water filter can be placed in the water tank to preserve the
taste of your coffee. It also diminishes the need for descaling by reducing
limescale build-up in your machine.

AquaClean icon and light

Картинка с сайта: manualspro.net

Your machine is equipped with an AquaClean water filter light to indicate the
status of the filter. Use the table below to see what actions are required
when the light is on or when it is flashing.

Activating the AquaClean water filter (5 min.)

• The machine does not automatically detect that a filter has been placed in the water tank. Therefore you need to activate each new AquaClean water filter that you install with the AquaClean icon.

When the orange AquaClean light is off, you can still activate an AquaClean
water filter, but you will need to descale the machine first.

• Your machine has to be completely limescale-free before you start to use the AquaClean water filter.

Before activating the AquaClean water filter, it has to be prepared by
soaking it in water as described below.

1. If you don’t do this, air might be drawn into the machine instead of water, which makes a lot of noise and prevents the machine from being able to brew coffee.
2. Make sure that the machine is switched on.
3. Shake the filter for about 5 seconds
4. Immerse the filter upside down in a jug with cold water and shake/press it
5. Insert the filter vertically onto the filter connection in the water tank. Press it down to the lowest possible point
6. Fill the water tank with fresh water and place it back into the machine.
7. If attached, remove the LatteGo.
8. Place a bowl under the hot water spout/milk frother.
9. Press the AquaClean icon for 3 seconds. The start light starts to pulse.
10. Press the Start/Stop button to start the activation process.
11. Hot water will be dispensed from the hot water spout/milk frother (3 min.).
12. When the activation process is finished, the blue AquaClean light goes on to confirm that the AquaClean water filter has been activated correctly.

Replacing the AquaClean water filter (5 min.)

After 95 liters of water have flowed through the filter, the filter will cease
to work. The AquaClean light turns orange and starts to flash to remind you to
replace the filter. As long as it flashes, you can replace the filter without
having to descale the machine first. If you do not replace the AquaClean water
filter, the orange light will go out eventually. In that case, you can still
replace the filter but you first need to descale the machine.

When the orange AquaClean light flashes:

1. Take out the old AquaClean water filter.
2. Install a new filter and activate it as described in the chapter Activating the AquaClean water filter (5 min.).

Replace the AquaClean water filter at least every 3 months, even if the
machine does not yet indicate that replacement is required.

Deactivating the AquaClean reminder

If you do not want to use Philips AquaClean water filters anymore, you can
always deactivate the AquaClean reminders (AquaClean light flashing orange):

1. Press the on/off button to switch off the machine.
2. When the machine is switched off, press and hold the AquaClean icon until the light in this icon goes on. The start light starts flashing.
3. Tap the AquaClean icon again to deactivate the reminders. The light in the AquaClean icon goes off.
4. Press the start/stop button to confirm your choice.
5. Press the on/off button to switch on the machine again. The AquaClean reminders are now deactivated.

Note: The activation of a new AquaClean filter will automatically re-
activate the AquaClean reminders.

Setting the water hardness

We advise you to adjust the water hardness to the water hardness in your
region for optimal performance and a longer lifetime for the machine. This
also prevents you from having to descale the machine too often. The default
water hardness setting is 4: hard water.

Use the water hardness test strip supplied in the box to determine the
water hardness in your region:

1. Immerse the water hardness test strip in tap water or hold it under the tap for 1 second (Fig. 45).
2. Wait 1 minute. The number of squares on the test strip that turn red indicates the water hardness (Fig. 46).

Set the machine to the correct water hardness:

1. Press the on/off button to switch off the machine.
2. When the machine is switched off, tap and hold the aroma strength icon until all lights in the icon go on (Fig. 2).
3. Tap the aroma strength icon 1, 2, 3, or 4 times. The number of lights that are on should be the same as the number of red squares on the test strip (Fig. 47). When there are no red squares on the test strip (so all squares are green) please select 1 light.
4. When you have set the correct water hardness, press the start/stop button.
5. Press the on/off icon to switch on the machine.

Since you only set the water hardness once, the aroma strength function is
used to select the water hardness. This does not affect the aroma strength of
the drinks you make afterward.

Descaling procedure (30 min.)

Please use Philips descaler only. Under no circumstances should you use a
descaler based on sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, sulfamic or acetic acid
(vinegar) as this may damage the water circuit in your machine and not
dissolve the limescale properly. Not using the Philips descaler will void your
warranty. Failure to descale the appliance will also void your warranty. You
can buy Philips descaling solution in the online shop at www.philips.com
/coffee-care.
When the Calc / Clean light starts to flash slowly, you need to descale the
machine.

1. Make sure that the machine is switched on.
2. If attached remove LatteGo or milk frother.
3. Remove the drip tray and the coffee grounds container, empty them, and put them back into place.
4. Remove the water tank and empty it. Then remove the AquaClean water filter.
5. Pour the whole bottle of Philips descaler into the water tank and then fill it with water up to the Calc.
6. Clean indication (Fig. 48). Then place it back into the machine.
7. Place a large container (1.5 l) under the coffee dispensing spout and the water spout.
8. Press the Calc / Clean icon for 3 sec. and then press the start/stop button.
9. The first phase of the descaling procedure starts. The descaling procedure lasts approx. 30 minutes and consists of a descaling cycle and a rinsing cycle. During the descaling cycle, the Calc / Clean light flashes to show that the descaling phase is in progress.
10. Let the machine dispense the descaling solution until the display reminds you that the water tank is empty.
11. Empty the water tank, rinse it and then refill it with fresh water up to the Calc / Clean indication.
12. Empty the container and place it back under the coffee dispensing spout and the water spout. Press the start/stop button again. The second phase of the descaling cycle, the rinsing phase, starts and lasts 3 minutes. During this phase, the lights on the control panel go on and off to show that the rinsing phase is in progress.
13. Wait until the machine stops dispensing water. The descaling procedure is finished when the machine stops dispensing water.
14. The machine will now heat up again. When the lights in the drink icons light up continuously, the machine is ready for use again.
15. Install and activate a new AquaClean water filter in the water tank (see ‘Activating the AquaClean water filter (5 min.)’).

When the descaling procedure is finished, the AquaClean light flashes for a
while to remind you to install a new AquaClean water filter.

Tip: Using the AquaClean filter reduces the need for descaling!

What to do if the descaling procedure is interrupted

You can exit the descaling procedure by pressing the on/off button on the
control panel. If the descaling procedure is interrupted before it is
completely finished, do the following:

• Empty and rinse the water tank thoroughly.
• Fill the water tank with fresh water up to the Calc/Clean level indication and switch the machine back on. The machine will heat up and perform an automatic rinsing cycle.
• Before brewing any drinks, perform a manual rinsing cycle. To perform a manual rinsing cycle, first, dispense half a water tank of hot water by repeatedly tapping the hot water icon (Fig. 15) and then brew
• 2 cups of pre-ground coffee without adding ground coffee.

service centers, or online at www.philips.com/parts-and-

FAQs

What country produces Philips EP2231/40?

This machine was manufactured in China, according to the label information.

How many times can coffee grounds be used again in an espresso maker?

Apart from drinking another shot of espresso, the coffee you get after your
espresso is excellent for many things.

Can I make espresso using regular coffee?

You’ll be happy to know regular pre-ground coffee can be used for an espresso
machine, provided it has the right fine grind

What distinguishes espresso from coffee?

Because of its lower grounds-to-water ratio, espresso is thicker and more
potent than coffee.

espresso is often 1:2–1:2.5. It’s crucial to keep in mind that these ratios
are more like suggestions than strict regulations.

How long is the lifespan of a Philips espresso maker?

With regular usage, inexpensive home espresso machines last three to five
years. Infrequent usage can enhance this lifetime even further.

What is the ideal ratio for coffee?

We advise using a 17:1 water-to-coffee ratio in your home brewer.

While some individuals just perform one cycle of rinsing, we advise performing
two cycles to make sure your machine has been thoroughly cleansed with your
descaling solution.

Descaler may be left overnight.

Let it overnight for even greater effects, but you might not want to go that
long without a cup of tea.

Can the Philips EP2231/40 produce iced coffee?
