How to use the BRITA MAXTRA filter
cartridge
STEP 1: PREPARING THE
CARTRIDGE
To prepare your BRITA filter cartridge,
please remove protective wrapper (note:
cartridge and inside wrapper may appear
moist, this is simply condensation).
Immerse cartridge in cold water and
shake it gently to remove any air bubbles.
The filter now is ready to use. As required
for some other water filter cartridges,
there is no need to pre-soak the new
Maxtra Cartridge.
STEP 2: INSERT IN THE WATER
TANK
Remove the tank lid. Before inserting the
cartridge, remove the funnel and clean it
thoroughly by rising it and wiping it dry.
Then thoroughly clean the inside of the
water tank with a dump cloth and wipe it
dry as well. Place the cartridge into the
filter tank and push downwards until it
'clicks' firmly into place. The cartridge
should stay in place if the funnel is turned
upside down.
STEP 3: RINSE CARTRIDGE
Take the funnel out of the BRITA water
filter unit, fill it under the tap with cold tap
water and allow it to filter through.
Discard the first two fillings into the sink.
These first two fillings are used to flush
the filter cartridge.
Then place the funnel back into BRITA
water filter unit.
Place the cover back onto the jag and
press it carefully downwards to ensure it
fits correctly into place.
STEP 4: REFILL WATER TANK
To fill the tank with cold water, simply
open the flip top lid, take a jug of tap
water and pour it inside the tank through
the cover as shown into the picture (use
the lid every time that you want to filter
your water).
Important!
In order to avoid risk of spillage of water
during closing and opening of the
refrigerator door, we recommend to not
fill completely the water tank but leave a
head space of air.
