The water filter filters particles and the taste of chlorine out
of the water.
The water filter reduces further contamination, e. g. from
chloramines, lead and pharmaceutical products.
Note: The water filter does not filter bacteria or microbes
out of the water.
Change the water filter:
¡ every 6 months.
¡ if lights up.
¡ if the water output has visibly reduced.
Tips
¡ A new water filter can be purchased from customer ser-
vice, your dealer or our website.
¡ If you do not want to use a water filter in your appliance
or an external water filter system is installed, you can
permanently replace the water filter with a bypass cap.
The bypass cap filters only large particles out of the wa-
ter and can be cleaned as required.
A bypass cap can be purchased from customer service
or our website.
