The filter package CARBONIT SANUNO also includes a filter device with
connecting hose, a diverter valve, the adapter for the installation of the
valve as well as a Carbonit Monoblock NFP Premium filter cartridge (resp.
NFP Clario).
Warning!
Consider during the installation: Never operate the device with warm or
hot water or behind a de-pressurised boiler shower hose armature.
The upper part of the housing is unscrewed
and removed from the supporting foot. The
filter cartridge will appear..
Remove the protecting foil from the filter
cartridge.
The housing is unscrewed again in clockwise
direction. Warning: Ensure that the seal of the
housing do not twist when closing the housing.
Close water-tap and place SANUNO on a
plane ground!
A small mesh is in the water-tap, the so-
called aerator (e.g. Perlator® by Neoperl).
Unscrew it from the water-tap
Installing the diverter valve: If the water-tap is
fitted with an external thread, you can connect
the valve directly to the water-tap. Otherwise,
use the enclosed adapter for installation.
The connecting hose connects the water-tap
and the filter. One end is screwed to the foot of
the filter and the other end is screwed to the
diverter valve.
The filter is turned upside, the lever at the
diverter valve is brought into horizontal position
(which guides the water through the filter) and
the water-tap is turned on: Water flows through
the filter, the air inside the housing is
completely removed. The valve regulator
allows controlling the water flow rate.
Check the installation for leaks. If required, re-
tighten the connections between the hose,
water-tap and filter. To activate the filter let
water flow through the filter for about five
minutes. A small amount of carbon dust may
run off. This is normal and harmless.
Now, you can set the filter on its foot, –
SANUNO is ready for operation. SANUNO
provides the optimal quencher – fresh spring
water supplied directly from the water-tap.
To ensure clean and fresh water at any
time, change the filter cartridge after six
months. The enclosed label shall remind
you to change the filter cartridge.
1
Close the water-tap and remove the
housing from the filter foot above the sink by
turning it in counter-clockwise direction
(water flows when opening the housing!).
Remove the used cartridge..
The new filter cartridge is equipped with
green caps and flat seals at its ends. One of
the green caps has a hole. Remove the flat
seal directly positioned on the cap hole – it is
not needed for the SANUNO filter• ] system.
To fit the new cartridge, turn the filter
housing upside, insert the new cartridge
with its closed side (and sealing) faced-
down, lay the O-ring over the edge of the
filter cup and close the housing.
Repeat the last steps described regarding
the cartridge activation and filter ventilation
for initial setup of the filter system.

Cartridge recycling
CARBONIT cartridges are recyclable. To safe the environment, used
cartridges should be disposed for recycling by specialist retailers.
Since the activated carbon in CARBONIT filters is made of coconut
shell, used cartridges can be disposed of with household waste.
Note: CARBONIT employs used water filter cartridges only for
industrial purposes, for example in incineration plants. They are not
used for production of new filters.]
The activated carbon
Generally, the activated carbon filters used for this system differ from
table or can filters. Can filters that are used for optimizing the taste
and view of the water are not able to remove pollutants from the water.
SANUNO is a TÜV-certified block filter made of activated carbon (also
available with an activated carbon membrane cartridge). The high-
quality activated carbon has a very large inner surface and thus a very
high absorption capacity. This allows removing lead, copper,
pharmaceutical residues and hormones, while minerals are left in the
drinking water.
Maintenance of SANUNO
Basic maintenance with each cartridge exchange
!Carefully extract the tap and remove lime residues.
!Clean the filter cup (seat of the seal) with suited cleaning agents.
!Clean the filter mesh of the diverter valve with suited cleaning
agents.
!Check the mechanical function and wear parts (seals, diverter
valve etc.) of the device.
!The manufacturer excludes all liability and warranty claims
caused by non-observance of Maintenance after long standstill
(e.g. holiday).
!Repeat the last steps described regarding the cartridge activation
for initial setup of the filter system.
