There is always a small quantity of lime in your home's tap
water. For this reason we have installed a water filter car-
tridge which is designed to remove the lime particles before
the water runs through the appliance.
 Check the water filter cartridge (Fig. 23) every time you
fill the water tank, Chapter 3.1, "Filling the water tank".
 When first supplied, the filter medium on the inside of
the cartridge is a very light colour (Fig. 23/A). If when you
check it you discover that the filter medium on the inside of
the cartridge has significantly changed colour (Fig. 23/B)
compared to its supply state or less steam is emitted, re-
place the cartridge as follows:
1. Switch off the device, put it into the neutral position and
pull the plug from the socket, Chapter 4.6, "Putting the
device into the neutral position".
2. Remove the water tank, Chapter 3.1, "Filling the water
tank".
3. Check the colour of the cartridge. If the inside of the car-
tridge has changed colour considerably compared to
the supply state (Fig. 23/B), the cartridge has to be re-
placed.
4. If the water filter cartridge has to be replaced, pull it up
and out of the console powerfully (Fig. 24).
5. Then replace the water filter cartridge with a new one
(order no.: Chapter 7.3, "Accessories and spare
parts").
NOTE:
You can dispose of the worn-out water filter cartridge
with your household waste.
6. Push the new cartridge powerfully back into the console
(Fig. 25).
7. Put the water tank back on, Chapter 3.1, "Filling the
water tank").
8. Make sure that both the elements are securely fastened
to each other.
