Colouring
The quality of the drinking water produced ultimately de-
pends on the degree of contamination of the untreated
water.
Adequate untreated water quality must be ensured.
Clean drinking water can only be achieved through reg-
ular maintenance of all filters belonging to the unit.
Before using the unit for the first time, we recom-
mend analysing the untreated water in accordance
with Directive 98/83/EC Annex 3 "Indicator Param-
eters".
An analysis of untreated water is not necessary to
operate the unit.
Drinking water quality is only guaranteed if the unit
is checked regularly.
The unit is designed to be connected to the water
line.
Any national drinking water regulations must be ob-
served.
The unit is not designed for use as a sewage treat-
ment system.
The unit is not suitable for seawater softening.
This device is not intended for use by persons (in-
cluding children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental abilities or lacking experience and/or knowl-
edge, unless they are supervised by a person re-
sponsible for their safety or are instructed by these
persons on the use of the device. Children should
be supervised, to ensure that they do not play with
the device.
The appliance may not be set up and used in com-
mercial kitchens.
The appliance must be installed in frost-free rooms.
Do not use or park the device outdoors.
The unit can also be used as a pre-filter in a Kärch-
er WPD water dispenser.
When used as intended, water produced from this
unit can be classified as drinking water.
Function
Water flows from the water inlet through the following fil-
ters:
–
Fleece filter (removes large particles of dirt)
–
Activated carbon filter (granulate)
–
Activated carbon filter (block)
–
Membrane filters (reverse osmosis)
–
Activated carbon filter (ensures neutral taste)
The entire filtration system must be replaced at regular
intervals.
Connecting the appliance
During initial installation and any repairs that in-
volve the replacement of accessory parts, make
sure only the enclosed parts are used. These parts
are components that have been approved by
KÄRCHER for installation. Never use other compo-
nents.
The power connection and the water input pres-
sure must conform to the data in the specifications.
Depending on local regulations, the installation of
an approved check-valve is required.
There must be an even surface available to install
the appliance.
The unit is suitable for wall mounting.
For wall mounting, use the openings in the frame.
The fastening material for the wall-mounted instal-
lation is not included in the scope of delivery and
must be procured in accordance with the condi-
tions on site.
When mounting on the wall, check the load capac-
ity of the wall.
Power plug and receptacle must be freely accessi-
ble after the installation.

Note
When selecting an installation location, make sure con-
nections and stop valves remain easily accessible.
Leave enough room for filter changes.
Hose lines should be placed so that they do not bend.
Water connection
When connecting to the drinking water supply, observe
local regulations on disconnecting from the mains.

Attaching hose
B
Removing hose
Cut hose to length before insertion.
Note
Cut hose straight across. Hoses cut at an angle cause
leaks.
Connecting the appliance
Note
Before connecting, select an installation location and
cut the hose lines to length accordingly. Make sure to
leave enough hose in case the unit has to be moved
(e.g. when changing the filters).
For easy identification, the hose lines are colour coded
and have different diameters:
Blue
Filtered water outlet from unit, d = 6.35 mm
White
Supply from water main, d = 9.5 mm
Red
Drain water line (concentrate), d = 6.35 mm

Mark and drill the hole (d = 6 mm).
Note
Only drill the hole on one side. Do not drill through the
pipe. The pipe clamp can be used as a drill jig.
Attach sealing piece to the pipe clamp.
Insert hose (red) into the fitting.
Fasten pipe clamp to the drain water line as shown
above.
Fasten hose (red) with pipe clamp.
Insert hose (red) into the drain water outlet of the
unit and secure.
Note
The hole has a smaller diameter than the hose (red).
This causes the hose to contact the sides of the drain
water pipe. The hose should not protrude into the drain
water pipe. The self-adhering sealing piece provides a
seal.
