Congratulations! You are the owner of a Oster
®
water
filtration system. This carbon-based water filter improves the
taste of your coffee by removing up to 97% of the chlorine
from the water you may use to brew your coffee.
To use the water filtration system in your Oster
®
Coffee
maker, please follow these steps:
1. Align the red indicator on the frame to the letter that
corresponds with the month that you are using the disk
for the first time. This serves to remind you to change
the disk every month (approx. 30 brewing cycles).
NOTE: For optimum results, use the water filtration
system with the permanent filter.
2. Rinse the water filter in fresh water before first use.
3. Follow Adding Water and Coffee instructions.
4. When you are done brewing your coffee, rinse the water
filter with fresh water. Do not put your water filter in the
dishwasher.
To replace the water filter disks, twist the gray disk cover
from your water filtration system. Remove the used disk.
Insert the new disk into the frame and twist the cover back
into place.
