iMPOrTaNT!

Do not replace your carbon 
filter in the field unless 
absolutely necessary. When 
replacing the carbon filter you 
must follow these instructions. 
Failure to do so may cause 
contaminated water to pass 
through to the drinking water 
side.

Leaving the activated carbon 
filter inside the bottle whilst in 
long term storage may cause 
microbiological growth to 
occur. This will not have come 
from the bottle but may come 
from the user’s saliva. Always 
remove and discard the 
activated carbon filter when 
storing LIFESAVER bottle 
long term.

If you do not pump the handle 30 times the 

cartridge will disengage from the seal and 

you risk contaminating the clean water side of 
the bottle.

Do not over tighten the 
activated carbon filter as 
this risks damage
