Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility: This DeLonghi DK100 filter is specifically designed to fit DeLonghi DK100 and KBX series kettles. Always confirm your kettle model number before purchasing to ensure correct fitment.
Setup:
- Ensure your kettle is unplugged and completely cool.
- Remove the kettle from its base.
- Open the kettle lid.
- Locate the filter, usually positioned behind the spout opening. It may have a small handle or tab.
- Gently pull the old filter out.
- Insert the new DeLonghi DK100 filter into the same position, ensuring it is seated correctly.
- Close the lid and place the kettle back on its base.
- Before first use, fill the kettle with fresh water, boil it, and then discard the water. This flushes the new filter.
Care:
- This filter is designed for single-use replacement. It cannot be cleaned or reused.
- Replace the filter regularly, typically every 2-3 months, or when you notice increased limescale build-up or a change in water taste. The frequency depends on your local water hardness and kettle usage.
