CHANGING THE

ACTIVATED CARBON FILTER

Remove the main UF Cartridge (as described on page 8).

Turn the Wayfarer

™

so the open end of the filter chamber is facing down and tap

lightly on a table or firm surface. The Activated Carbon Filter will simply drop out.

Remove the rubber tyre seal around the carbon and re-use for your
new Activated Carbon Filter.

Turn the Wayfarer

™

back over so the open end of the filter chamber is facing

up and drop in a new Activated Carbon Filter with rubber tyre fitted. Shake the
Wayfarer

™

slightly to get the carbon to drop flat into its recess.

Now re-fit the UF Cartridge.

Note:

When fitted, the water flowing from the Wayfarer

™

may contain grey/black

particles. This is harmless carbon dust and will disappear after 2–3 uses.
