Installation of the CLARIS filter cartridge
(according to model)

• To get the best taste and performance from your appliance we advise you to use the Claris Aqua Filter

System cartridge. This cartridge contains an anti-lime substance and activated carbon that reduces
chlorine, impurities, lead, copper, pesticides, etc that are present in water. Minerals and trace elements,
however, are preserved.

1 Unwrap the cartridge J. Take note of the month in which the cartridge is put into use by sliding the upper

ring on the filter to the use start date

fig 4

. You should change your Claris Filter Cartridge every 4 to

6 weeks (or every 50 litres), according to the hardness of your water.

2 Position the cartridge in the tank

and screw the cartridge

a quarter turn into the bottom of the tank.

Certain models also have an indicator light

, which indicates when it is necessary to change the cartridge.

For these models, when this light

flashes during use, it is time to change the cartridge

fig 5

3 To change the cartridge, remove the used cartridge and replace it with a new Claris Aqua Filter system

cartridge, sold as an accessory (ref XH 5000)

fig 6

4 For models with an indicator light, it is necessary to record the change of cartridge by simultaneously

pressing the hot water button

and the ambient water button

, for at least 5 seconds

fig 7.

After 5 seconds, the indicator light will go out. The appliance will then have recorded the cartridge change.

Descaling your appliance

In order to optimise the lifetime of your appliance, we recommend that you descale it at least every 2 months.
Descaling should be carried out more frequently if you live in a very hard water area.
Certain models also have an indicator light

, which indicates when descaling is necessary. When this

indicator

is on during use, it is time to descale the appliance.

To descale:
1 Remove the Claris filter cartridge

fig 6.

2 Place a container of at least 1.5 litres under the nozzle.

- Do not fill the tank with

hot water, milk or any
other liquid.

- Make sure that no

foreign bodies, such as
grit or small particles,
get into the water tank:
any damage arising
from foreign bodies
having entered the tank
is excluded from the
guarantee.

- Make sure that the

water is fresh from the
tap so that it has not
had time to become
stagnant or in contact
with the air and that it
is odour-free.

- Never remove the tank

while the appliance is in
operation.

- If you use an entire

tank of water all at once
(approximately 1.5
litres), let the appliance
rest for 10 minutes
before launching a
new cycle.
