Only use the cleaning brush that comes with the appliance. Other brushes may damage the filter
cylinder.
The filter cylinder is not waterproof and cannot be cleaned with water, cleaning agents or
flammable substances.
Note: Cleaning does not restore the original colour of the filter, but does restore its filtration power.

clean it with cold tap water and some washing-up liquid (Fig. 43).

cylinder is not waterproof (Fig. 44).

with the other hand, insert it into the case (1) and turn it clockwise (2) to fix it (2)

Make sure that the filter cylinder case is dry before you reinsert the filter cylinder into it.
