WHY INSTALL A FILTER CARTRIDGE?
The Claris Aqua Filter System cartridge optimises the taste of coffee, and reduces scaling and maintenance.
WHEN SHOULD I CHANGE THE CLARIS AQUA FILTER SYSTEM CARTRIDGE?
1. Two months after set-up or when your machine notifies you.
2. When changing the cartridge, we recommend that you turn the grey ring on the top of the filter cartridge
to indicate the date + two months.
