PREPARING THE WATER FILTER CARTRIDGE
1. Remove all packaging from the filter
cartridge. There may be a small
residue of black carbon particles
in the bag or on the surface of the

particles are harmless and are washed
off during the preparation process.
2. Soak the cartridge in a bowl of water
for 5–10 minutes to remove all the air
bubbles.
3. Rinse for 1 minute under a running tap.
4. The filter cartridge is now ready for use.
FITTING THE FILTER INTO THE INNER VESSEL
1. Fit the Aqua Optima filter cartridge
into the underside of the inner
vessel and rotate clockwise to lock
into place. Ensure that it is firmly
secured.
2. Place the inner vessel back into the
filter jug.
3. Refit the lid.
4. Fill the inner vessel with cool water
and let it pass through the filter.
Once it has been filtered, discard
the water. Repeat the procedure
once more.
5. Fill the inner vessel for a third time,
your water filter jug is now ready
for use.

FOR BEST RESULTS
• To prevent the filter from drying out, it should not
be left unused for long periods. If such an extended
period is anticipated (such as a holiday), then it is best
to remove the filter and store it in a sealed plastic
bag. The filter can then simply be prepared as per
the original fitting instructions. Refer to Preparing the
water filter cartridge above.

It is important to store the jug out of direct sunlight
and away from heat sources.
• Wash and rinse the inner vessel and jug regularly. The
lid should be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
• Use only cold or room temperature water for filtering.
• Only use mild cleaning agents, never solvents or
corrosive chemicals. Never use abrasive pads on this
product.
• Do not use the filter jug for any other purpose than for
filtering water.
