Saving CSS deletes backslash

Hi

I am using fontello icons for my bullet lists.

I am required to have a \ backslash in front of the E number to get them to work but when I save the css the backslash gets deleted.

ul.list  {
    list-style-type: none !important;
    list-style: none !important;
    position: relative;
    display: block;
    left: 0;
    list-style-position: outside;
    width: 100%;
    padding-bottom: 0;
}

.list li {
    list-style-type: none !important;
    list-style: none !important;
    position: relative;
    padding-left: 10px;
    margin-bottom: 10px;
}

.list li:before {
    position: absolute;
    top: 3px;
    left: -15px;
    background-color: #FFFFFF;    
    font-family: 'fontello';    
    content: "\E822"; /* Important the backslash must be present before the E822 */
    font-size: 18px;
    color: #007ab6;
}

Do you know why it will all of a sudden started to delete the \ on save?
