Inserting The Water Filter - Rommelsbacher EKS 2000 Bedienungsanleitung

Inserting the water filter

• Make sure the appliance had been bled correctly before inserting the water filter (please refer to
"Bleeding the system")!
• As this is an activated carbon filter, the water may take on colour when starting to rinse the filter.
This is normal and will be cleared by rinsing the filter.
• For perfect function, the filter granulate must be completely soaked. Thus, follow all below steps
consecutively.
• The date of exchange can be set on the upper side of the filter (1 – 12).
• Exchange the water filter after 30 litres or after 2 months at the latest.
• Replacement filters are available in specialised trade or from our customer service.
Warning: Casing, brew head,
portafilter, filter inserts and hot
water/steam nozzle are getting hot
during use!
