Replacing the Filter Screen 

1.

 

Remove the waste bin, open the front door, and re-install the waste bin. Allow the 

machine to complete its initialization. 

2.

 

Access the equipment programming, and navigate to the 

'System Status'

 menu, and 

then the 

'Maintenance'

 sub-menu. 

3.

 

Tap the 

'Remove Filter'

 option. 

 

4.

 

The brewer lowers the piston all the way to the bottom of the cylinder, which will 

subsequently unclip the filter screen from the piston. 

5.

 

The piston then moves to the top of the cylinder, allowing for easy retrieval of the filter 

screen. 

6.

 

Install the new filter screen into the top of the piston by clipping it in place - 

make 

certain it is properly clipped all the way around

 

7.

 

Remove the waste bin. 

8.

 

Close the door and re-install the waste bin, and allow the machine to complete its 

initialization.
