PREPARING THE WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE
1. Remove all packaging from the filter
cartridge. There may be a small residue
of black carbon particles in the bag or
on the surface of the cartridge; this is
normal. These particles are harmless and
are washed off during the preparation
process.
2. Soak the cartridge in a bowl of water
for 5–10 minutes to remove all the air
bubbles.
3. Rinse for 1 minute under a running tap.
4. The filter cartridge is now ready for use.
FITTING THE FILTER INTO THE INNER
VESSEL
1. Fit the Aqua Optima filter cartridge into
the underside of the inner vessel and
rotate clockwise to lock into place. Ensure
that it is firmly secured.
2. Place the inner vessel back into the filter jug
ensuring the flat edge of the inner vessel is
facing towards the front of the jug.
3. Refit the lid.
4. Fill the inner vessel with cool water and
let it pass through the filter. Once it has
been filtered, discard the water. Repeat
the procedure once more.
5. Fill the inner vessel for a third time, your
water filter jug is now ready for use.

REPLACING THE FILTER CARTRIDGE

simply be prepared as per the original fitting instructions.
