WATER FILTER

Certain models are fitted with a water softener filter. If this

the packaging.

disk (see fig. 33) until 
the next 2 months of 
use are displayed. 

 Please note

months if the appliance is 
used normally. If the coffee 
maker is left unused with 
the filter installed, it will last 
a maximum of three weeks.
