• High-Density Carbon Filtration: Absorbs chlorine, odors, and organic contaminants to ensure a neutral water profile for superior espresso extraction.
• Micro-Mesh Barrier: Features an ultra-fine screen to trap physical sediment and particles before they reach the high-pressure pump.
• Click-In Interface: Designed with a specialized base to lock securely into the internal filter holder of the water reservoir.
• Optimized Flow Rate: Engineered to permit the correct volume of water for pre-infusion and high-pressure extraction without straining the motor.

When to Replace

• Time Interval: Every 2 to 3 months to maintain chemical filtration efficacy and hygiene.
• Volume Limit: After filtering approximately 40 liters (10.5 gallons) of water.
• Machine Alert: When the "Change Filter" reminder or icon appears on the digital touch screen or LCD panel.
• Scale Prevention: If you live in a hard water area, timely replacement is critical to avoid expensive manual descaling procedures.

Installation Tips

• Pre-Soak: Submerge the filter in a bowl of cold water for 5 minutes. Gently squeeze the sides to allow air bubbles to escape the carbon core.
• Rinse: Hold the filter under cold running water for 30 seconds to flush out any loose carbon dust.
• Date Reminder: Set the replacement date dial on the top of the filter holder to 3 months from the current date.
• Locking: Insert the filter into the two-part holder and snap the assembly into the bottom of the water tank.
• Activation: Use the machine’s menu to start the "Filter Cycle." This will flush a small amount of water through the system to prime the new filter.
