5.1 Changing filter
The filter loses its efficiency and
must be replaced after at most
two months.
➔ To change filter, empty the water
reservoir (fig. 1/C and 2) and
un screw the old filter from the

It can be discarded with the usual
household rubbish.
➔ Set the insertion and replace-
ment dates on the date ring
(months) at the upper end of the
new filter cartridge.
➔ Screw the new filter into the
bracket provided in the water re -

the end of the measuring spoon
(fig. 6).
➔ Refill the water reservoir with
fresh water and replace it in the

steam / hot water jet (fig. 1/R) and
turn the valve control knob (fig.

out of the jet and then turn the
valve control knob (fig. 1/P and 5)
