Carbon Filter Cup
(figs. C & D)
The filter cup should be replaced every 2 months or after 60-80 gallons
of water processed (whichever comes first). Replace more often should the
distilled water begin to have an unwanted taste or odor. Rinse and sterilize
new filter cup per instructions on pages 5 and 6. Discard first gallon of
distilled water as it may contain small, harmless carbon fines. Order
replacement filters from the outlet where you purchased your distiller.
