Before initial use, it is recommended that you rinse the products and lter with clean water to
remove possible particles, dust etc.
Do not over-pump (pressurize) the Jerry Can. The pump is only to provide the pressure required
for ltration. When the water outlet valve is closed, the sealed Jerry Can is temporarily pressurized, thus
ensuring that the water can be ltered out. Over-pressurization can lead to excess expansion of the Jerry
Can and can damage the housing and the lters.
Try to choose a clean water source for lling the Jerry Can. Although the Jerry Can can be used for
highly turbid water ltration, this will shorten the service life of the lter(s).
Do not allow grit, gravel, or other rough material to enter the Jerry Can. There is designed gap
between the bottom of the lter and the Jerry Can oor which ensure that the any large particles will
remain at the bottom of the Jerry Can and will not block or clog the lter membrane. Regular cleaning
of the Jerry Can will help maintain the life. The Jerry Can is designed to have the Standard UF Module
and the AC Module in used in tandem. If you choose to not use the AC Module, use the included hose
tube to make up the dierence in height from the Jerry Can oor to the Standard UF Module.
Unless you are installing or replacing one of the water lter modules, always keep the water valve
closed.

HydroBlu Jerry Can User Manual HydroBlu Jerry Can User Manual

A: Additional modules can be purchased at www.hydroblu.com or from the dealer where you
purchased the HydroBlu Jerry Can.
A: Natural rivers, rain, lakes, pools, streams and other natural fresh water can be used in the HydroBlu Jerry Can.
In order to extend the water lter life capacity and for better drinking water, you should try to use relatively
clean water. DO NOT use paper, electroplating, printing and dyeing, smelting sewage and other industrial water
waste as water sources. DO NOT use polluted water as a water source. If there is a large amount of sediment in
the water, please allow the sediment to settle for a couple minutes and then pressurize the Jerry Can.
Q: Where can I purchase extra lter modules?
Q: What is the water requirement when using a HydroBlu Jerry Can?
FAQ：
For long-term storage of the HydroBlu Jerry Can, clean and rinse the Jerry Can with fresh water and
allow to completely dry before putting the pieces back together. Store in a cool, dry location.
1
Do not allow the lter to dry completely during storage. Because in the hard water area, calcium, magnesium
and other salts dissolved in water could become crystals salt on the membrane surface and signicantly
reduce membrane performance and in some cases will result in lter failure.
2
When transporting your HydroBlu Jerry Can, ensure that the Jerry Can is empty, and securely packed in your
baggage to protect it from freezing. Make sure that the tank pressure has been released and do not keep
pressure in the Jerry Can.

The HydroBlu Jerry Can UF Filter Membrane is a low-pressure, high-output precision ultraltration membrane module that
provides high volume at low-pressure to meet outdoor water requirements. At the same time, the life of the ultraltration
membrane system also varies depending on water quality.
In order to extend the service life of this product, please clean the Jerry Can with clean water after use. Make sure any debris
or other large particles are completely washed out from the bottom of the Jerry Can.
Maintenance
Unscrew the lter cover cap.
Unscrew the membrane lter and screw on a new UF lter.
Rinse and dry the Jerry Can.
Tighten the lter cover and ush the new lter cartridge (as described in the First Use directions).
After pre-ushing, the water purier can be used normally.

HydroBlu Jerry Can User Manual HydroBlu Jerry Can User Manual

A: Yes. HydroBlu standard UF ltration modules can treat the water up to 10,000 gallon. This assumes you are
using relatively clear water, with low-sediment and you are cleaning and maintaining the Jerry Can correctly.
Because minerals can build up over time, we recommend replacing the UF Filter every 2 years or 10,000
gallons, whichever comes rst. This will keep your Jerry Can working at peak levels.
Q: Does the lter need to be replaced after a certain period of use?
A: No, the HydroBlu Jerry Can can lter out large particles and bacteria contained in seawater, but can not
remove salt from salt water and brackish water.
Q: Can I use the Jerry Can to lter seawater / brackish water for fresh water?
Please follow the instructions, precautions, and warnings in this manual. If you fail to comply with
the instructions in this manual, we can only provide replacement service .
