• Before screwing on the filter bowl, check the 

sealing ring (39) for damage.

• Screw on the filter bowl and tighten with the fil-

ter wrench.

• Open the untreated water supply again and 

start the system with the main switch.

Read off the amount of drinking water at the flow 
meter (42) and compare with the value taken 
when starting operation (see operational start-up 
record).

• Slowly shut the pressure control valve (14) in 

clockwise direction until the desired amount is 
almost reached at the flow meter (42).

• Slowly shut the concentrate control valve (13) 

in clockwise direction until the respective set 
value is reached on both flow meters for con-
centrate (43) and drinking water (42).

Notice: The quantity of concentrate will in-
crease. This is correct.

• Carry out a readjustment on both valve levers, 

if required.

On the display of the control panel (10), read the 
current drinking water conductance value and 
compare with the value taken when starting oper-
ation (see operational start-up record).

• Open the concentrate control valve (13) in coun-

terclockwise direction in small steps until the con-
ductance capacity has reached the set value.

• Shut the pressure control valve (14) in clock-

wise direction in small steps until the drinking 
water amount in the viewing glass (42) has 
reached the set value.

In case of alterations to the system 
adjustments, the following values must 
not be exceeded under any circum-
stances:
• Pump pressure, max. 21 bar (MP) or 

14 bar (LP)

• Drinking water amount, max. 650 l/h
• The concentrate amount must not ex-

ceed the operational start-up value

The system reacts somewhat time-
delayed to alterations of the regulation 
valves. Therefore carry out the adjust-
ment at the pressure control valve (14) 
and at the concentrate control valve 
(13) only in small steps, and wait until 
checking the respective effect.

If the flow of drinking water has de-
creased to _____ l/h , the following fine 
adjustment is to be carried out.
If the fine adjustment does not lead to 
an increase in the drinking water flow, 
the Kärcher Service must be con-
tacted.

Small increases of the drinking water 
conducting capacity do not influence 
the drinking water quality.

If the drinking water conductance value 
has increased to _____ µS/cm, the follow-
ing fine adjustment is to be carried out.
If the fine adjustment does not lead to a 
decrease of the drinking water con-
ductance value, the Kärcher Service 
must be contacted.
