3.1 Step 1: Selecting the carbonate hardness
(++/+) on the fi lter head
To set the fi lter head to your local carbonate hardness, fi rst carry
out a carbonate test using the supplied testing strip.
The testing strip can be found in the outer wrapping of these
Usage Instructions.
Using the testing strip:
• Let the red response fi eld of the probe soak in a glass of your
tap water for 1 second.
• After 1 minute, compare the colour of the response fi eld with
the table and read the appropriate setting from the table.
Depending on the colour of the testing strip, we recommend
setting your fi lter head as follows:

The fi lter head is set to "++" by default. To change the setting, use
