Thank you very much for buying your new water ltering
system by BWT!
You have made a good choice, as your new water ltering system is a real
quality product produced by BWT, the Europe-wide leading water technology
specialist from Austria.
Conventional water lters reduce carbonate hardness for prevention of lime
scale deposits, remove concentrations of heavy metals, e.g. lead and copper,
(if contained in the water) and eliminate taste-distorting elements, e.g. chlorine,
from the tap water. An ion exchanger takes on the main function by taking up
nearly all of the previously mentioned substances, except chlorine, primarily in
exchange with hydrogen ions. The result is a sour taste due to the low pH-value
of the water, which is in particular noticed at the beginning of the utilization
phase.
BWT takes an entirely different approach and thanks to the innovative Mg
2
+
formula offers a signicant advantage. In addition to the above mentioned
functions of a water lter, BWT in exchange with total hardness, uses magnesium
ions so that the water tastes less sour.
The pleasant effect: The valuable mineral magnesium serves as avour carrier
and thus provides for improved taste and more intense aroma of tea, coffee
and drinking water. A real benet for all who like to indulge their taste buds!
The new BWT water ltering system at the same time combines indulgence with
a healthy way of life and therefore totally complies with the spirit of the time.
We hope you enjoy using our water ltering system
produced by BWT!

1. PRODUCT TYPE AND PRODUCT DESIGNATION
IntheBWTwaterlteringsystemthepotablewateris
treatedin4ltrationstages:
Stage 1: Particleltration
Stage 2: Reduction of lime scale and heavy metal
concentrations, exchange of calcium
through magnesium ions
Stage 3: Reduction of undesirable odours and
taste-distorting substances (chlorine) and
certain organic impurities
Stage 4: Fineltration
2. FUNCTION OF THE BWT FILTER CARTRIDGE
CLEAR WATER - CLEAR RESULTS
Thewaterlterisidealforpreparationofhotandcolddrinks
aswellasforcooking.Thelimecontentofthewaterisreduced.
Particlescontainedinthewaterarelteredoutofthewaterby
usingnelters.Tea,coffeeaswellasicecubesareclearwithout
any clouds.
BETTER WATER
Concentrations of heavy metal, as for example lead and
copper and organic impurities, e.g. certain herbicides and
pesticides are reduced.
SAVINGS
Scale deposits in coffee machines, espresso machines, pots and
waterkettlesarereduced,bywhichtheirservicelifeisextended.
Apart from that you not only save good money, but also the
cumbersome carrying of heavy water bottles, when you use BWT
as potable water.
TASTY WATER
Undesirable odours and taste-distorting substances, e.g. chlorine,
are eliminated from the water. Tea, coffee and potable water
preparedwithlteredwater,thankstotheMg2+-formula,reach
their full aroma and are of better taste. Sensor tests carried out be
independentinstitutesconrmthis

3. INTENDED USE
 TheBWTwaterlteringsystemmayonlybeoperatedwithcoldwater
fulllingthelegalrequirementsmadeonpotablewaterquality.
 Thewaterlterisunsuitablefortheproductionofpotablewater;i.e.the
ltermaynotbeusedfortreatmentofcontaminatedwater.
 TheBWTlteredwaterisintendedforshort-termuse.Itmaynotbeexposed
to direct radiation of the sun, is to be stored in a cool place and not longer
than24hours.Ifthelteredwateriskeptlongerthan24hoursinthewater
lteringsystem,whitemarksmayoccurinthejugthroughtheevaporation
of water, which can easily be removed through cleaning.
 Afterlteringmorethan3litressubsequently,apauseofatleast15minu-
tes should be made.
 Permanentwatercontactoftheltercartridgeisnotparticularlynecessary,
inordertoguarantylong-termoperationoftheltercartridge.Thelter
cartridgecontinuestofunction,alsoifitwastakenoutofthewaterforsome
time.
 Iffromtheofcialsideyouarerequested,toboilthetapwaterdueto
contaminationwithgerms,thisalsoappliestoBWTlteredwater.When
the authorities classify the tap water again as harmless and release it for
consumption,theltercartridgemustinanycasebechanged.Thewater
lteringsystemistobecleaned(seechapter6.1and8).
For certain groups of people, e.g. persons with limited immune defence and
forthepreparationofbabyfood,theBWTlteredwateristobeboiled.
 Forhygienicreasonstheltercartridgecontainssmallquantitiesofsilver,
in order to suppress the growth of germs. A small quantity of silver may be
given off to the water. It is harmless and in compliance with the corres-
ponding recommendations of the World Health Organization (WHO) for
potable water.
 Theltercartridgeshallbereplacedatleast4weeksafteritsrstuse.

3. INTENDED USE 4. EFFICIENCY OF THE FILTER CARTRIDGE
Theservicelifeoftheltercartridgevariesaccordingtotheplaceofapplicati-
on, as the quality of water is not everywhere the same. The total hardness of the
ltercartridgecomparedtotheretainedhardnessdependsonthehardnessof
thewater.Theharderthewater,theearliertheltercartridgewillbeexhausted.
Filter capacities
longlife Mg2+ 120 l at TW* = 12 – 14,2°d
universal Mg2+ 100 l at TW* = 12 – 14,2°d
*TW = total water hardness
The mentioned substances, e.g. lead and copper, which are reduced by the
lter,arenotalwayscontainedinpotablewater.
Thewaterlterfullsthemicrobiologicalrequirementsmadeonwaterlters
according to DIN 10521. The requirements according to DIN 10521 made on
chlorine,leadandcopperretentionarefullled.
BWT products are manufactured
according to the strictest quality
requirements. The food quality of the
products is monitored by the inde-
pendentTÜVRhineland/StatePublic
Health Authority.
BWT gives you a manufacturer‘s
warranty of two years on the water
lteringsystemyouhavebought.

6. HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1 Initial operation and filter cartridge change
Priortotherstuseorchangeoftheexhaustedltercartridgecleanjug,funnel
andlidoftheBWTwaterlteringsystemwithmildsoapywaterandrinse
thoroughly with warm water. Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents or scrub-
bingsponges,asscratchmarkscouldbeleftontheBWTwaterlteringsystem.
Jug and funnel can be washed in the dishwasher. The lid may not be washed in
the dishwasher.
Inordertoachievebestpossibleltrationperformance,werecommendyouto
putthenewltercartridgeintapwaterfor15minutes.Afterthatpleasediscard
the water.
Subsequentlyinsertthenewltercartridgeintothefunnelofthewaterltering
system by pressing it in lightly.
IftheBWTwaterlteringsystemisequippedwiththeautomaticllingsystem
„Easy-Fill“inthelid,itisnotnecessarytotakeoffthelidwhenllingthejug.
The„Easy-Fill“systemopensautomatically,whenthewaterjetmeetstheopen-
ingandclosesautomaticallyafterlling.IftheBWTwaterlteringsystemdoes
not have an opening in the lid, the lid must be removed. BWT recommends you
toclosethelidafterlling.
DiscardtherstlteredwaterllingandrelltheBWTwaterlteringsystem.
Fineblackparticlesofactivatedcarboncouldbeushedout,whichare,how-
ever,completelyharmless.Inthiscasewerecommendtorellthejug
and discard the water again until it is clear and free from particles.
TheBWTwaterlteringsystemisnowreadyforuse.
