8. Additional anti-limescale filter
TIP!
If the water is hard, we recommend using the anti-limescale filter (see section “12. Replacement items”).
Note
• If the anti-limescale filter does not prevent limescale build-up, or if white deposits form on or in the
device, the anti-limescale filter should be replaced.
• The service life of the anti-limescale filter is around 2 to 3 months at most.
• If the device is not used for a relatively long time, the anti-limescale filter must be removed from
the water tank and dried out.
Fitting the anti-limescale filter
1. Ensure that the device is switched off.
2. Remove the water tank from the base unit in an upward direction.
3. Turn the water tank over.
4. Open the screw plug on the water tank.
5. Screw the anti-limescale filter on the screw plug thread of the water tank.
6. Close the screw plug on the water tank. The anti-limescale filter is now
fitted.
