Effect descaler cartridge

ATTENTION
Only work with a cartridge inserted.
 As soon as the device is filled with water
and is taken into operation, the descal-
ing effect of the cartridge is activated.
 Lime that is contained in the water is ab-
sorbed by the granules in the cartridge.
This prevents the calcification of the de-
vice. An additional device descaling is
thus not required.
Note
The granules in the cartridge can change
their colour after contact with water; this is
related to the mineral content in the water.
This discolouration is harmless and does
not have any negative effects on the de-
vice, cleaning work or the functionality of
the cartridge.

The hardness of the tap water can be in-
