The method for operating a water electrolysis device for generating hydrogen and oxygen from water has a PEM electrolyser (1), to which water for generating the hydrogen and the oxygen is supplied together with water for cooling. The cooling water is conducted in the circuit and treated by means of an ion exchanger unit (17). Only part of the water conducted in the circuit is supplied to the ion exchanger unit (17) and another part is supplied to the PEM electrolyser (1) via a bypass (13) circumventing the ion exchanger unit (17).
