Water system
14 Water system
Water system
Your appliance is equipped with water-carrying compo-
nents.
The water system only works if a water filter or a bypass
cap is installed.
14.1 Water filter
The water filter filters particles and the taste of chlorine out
of the water.
The water filter reduces further contamination, e. g. from
chloramines, lead and pharmaceutical products.
Note:The water filter does not filter bacteria or microbes
out of the water.
Change the water filter:
¡ every 6months.
¡ if
lights up.
¡ if the water output has visibly reduced.
Tips
¡ A new water filter can be purchased from customer ser-
vice, your dealer or our website.
¡ If you do not want to use a water filter in your appliance
or an external water filter system is installed, you can
permanently replace the water filter with a bypass cap.
The bypass cap filters only large particles out of the wa-
ter and can be cleaned as required.
A bypass cap can be purchased from customer service
or our website.
Changing the water filter or replacing it with a
bypass cap
1. Reach into the recess below the filter cover, pull it for-
ward slightly
and move it to the bottom left .
2. Turn the water filter counterclockwise by 90° and re-
move it .
‒ Remove the water filter with care as it is under pres-
sure.
Note:When removing it, a small amount of water may
drip out of the water filter. Remove the drips of water
with a dry cloth.
Tip:You can dispose of the old water filter with your
household garbage.
3. Insert the new water filter or the bypass cap all the way
into the filter opening and turn it 90° clockwise until it
stops.

the way.
