REPLACING THE FILTER

Through normal use, waterborne minerals and sediment
become trapped in the wick filter. The harder your water,
the greater the amount of minerals in the water, and the
more often you will need to change your filter.
Use Filter Reminder Dial to keep track on how long a
filter has been in use.
