How to Replace the External Filter Cartridge
This instruction is for the replacement of the filter in product where the filter is mounted
externally. Variations apply depending on the product. Refer to individual instructions.
In preparation for your filter activation/flushing, ensure you have a 10 litre container
available.
Some water may drip from the filter head (socket) during replacement. Keep a towel
handy to dry up any drips.
To Change the Filter:
1. Shut off the main water supply isolation valve at the wall.
2. Grasp filter cartridge and twist right to left one quarter turn until it stops.
3. Ease cartridge downwards to detach it from the filter head (socket).
Caution: A small amount of water will drip as the cartridge is removed.
4. Do not tilt the cartridge as water may spill from it.
5. Unpack the replacement cartridge, remove the sanitary cap and write today’s date
where shown on the label.
6. Avoid touching the filter “O” rings and filter opening as this may cause bacterial
contamination of the cartridge.
7. Align the filter cartridge.
8. Slide the cartridge upward into the head and rotate from left to right until filter locks
into place.
9. Re-open the main water supply isolation valve at the wall.
10. To activate the cartridge, if connected to a filter tap, run water by opening the
tap until approximately 10 litres of water has passed through the filter. (for other
combined products see warning below)
11. Wipe up any spills and dispose of the spent filter cartridge and packaging
thoughtfully.
Warning: If the filter is external to a boiling water, chilled water or combined boiling
and chilled water dispensing product, the hose that enters the dispensing product
should be disconnected from the product and the filter activation/flush needs to be
directed through this hose into a bucket to avoid flushed particles from entering into the
storage tanks.
