REMEDIES

Situation: The water in the filling tank does not flow into the drinking water tank.

Cause:

1. Sediments clog the ceramic filter.

2. There is air in the filter, which slows down the water flow.

3. Something is slowing down the water flow mechanically.

Solution:

1. Clean the ceramic filter mechanically until the sediments are removed (see care instructions)

2. Immerse the ceramic filter with the thread facing upwards under water until the air has escaped

from the filter.

3 Fill the appliance regularly. This prevents the filter from drying out.

4.Check whether something mechanical could possibly interrupt the flow.

Situation: Water runs out of the lime filter/threaded ring and unfiltered into the drinking water tank

or out of the water system.

Cause:

1. There is air in the system.

2. Water has a different surface tension. If the surface tension is too high, the water may not be able

to flow through the filter cartridge.

Solution:

For lime filter variant a (see figure on page 3):

1. If you use an optional limescale filter, make sure that the granulate from the outer packaging has

been filled loosely into the limescale filter.

2. Remove the lid of the lime filter so that the water from the ceramic filter drips directly onto the

lime filter granulate.

With lime filter variant b:

1. Remove the limescale filter pad from the filtering cartridge and place it in the upper tank

2. The cartridge was turned too tightly into the threaded ring and thus the natural overflow was

inhibited. Screw the cartridge only very slightly into the threaded ring.

3. Deaerate the filter cartridge: remove the filter cartridge from the threaded ring. Loosen the carbon

in the top layer by tapping it. The best way to loosen the carbon is to tap the sides of the cartridge

with the ball of your hand. Continue to do this until the carbon is noticeably loosened. Place the

filtering cartridge in a clean container filled with water with the thread facing upwards. There

should be at least 10 cm of water above the immersed cartridge. After the air has escaped and no

more air bubbles come out of the filter cartridge, remove it from the water and tap it again from all

sides. When the activated carbon has loosened noticeably, submerge the filtering cartridge

completely under water again.

Situation: Water runs out of the drinking water tank

Cause:

1. The seal on the tap has worn off.

2. The drinking water tank overflows because the capacity has been exceeded.

Solution:

Clean the seals of the tap and also the tank. Make sure that the tank is dry when the tap is

installed.

2. Make sure that the capacity of the glass container is not exceeded. Do not add more water to the

upper tank when the drinking water tank (lower tank) is full.
