KAMBROOK
Welcome to Kambrook and your new
Kambrook Aquarius Filter Carafé.
We trust that you will enjoy the benefits
of healthy, clear, great tasting water using
your Kambrook filtration carafé.
Making great tasting drinking water is easy
with your Kambrook Aquarius Filter
Carafé plus you can save money on
purchasing expensive bottle water.
The clean fresh taste of Kambrook filtered
water makes it also ideal for other uses.
• In coffee and tea preparation - to
enhance the taste and aroma
• Used in electrical appliances such as
kettles and irons to reduce the build up
of scale inside the appliances -
especially in hard water areas
• Use filtered water in cooking, from
boiling pasta and rice to using in soups
and making ice cubes.
• Ideal for mixing baby formula (ensure
that you still boil the water after
filtration as normal)
• And it’s not just humans that can
benefit from filtered water, great for
cut flowers, potted plants and pets.
Please follow the following instructions on
how to best use the filter carafé and
replacement of water filter cartridges and
retain them for future reference.
IMPORTANT NOTES
The percentage removal and filtration
rates were tested and verified by an
independent Australian laboratory.
We recommend using the Kambrook
water filter only with municipally treated
tap water or with bore or tank water that
has been tested to be microbiologically
safe.
Do not use with water that is
microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality.
The filter will last for approximately 200
litres or approximately one month - this
will vary greatly depending on the quality
of tap water in your local area.
After filtering, water will remain inside the
filter holder - this is a safety feature, to
inhibit the growth of bacteria inside the
filter.
Do not leave the carafé in direct sunlight.
If not used for a prolonged period of time
empty the carafé, clean and dry throughly
and store in a dry, dark cool place.
If freezing water whilst in the carafé,
ensure to remove inner vessel and filter
cartridge before placing the carafé in
the freezer.

PREPARATION/
CONDITIONING THE FILTER
CARTRIDGE BEFORE USE
Before using the filter cartridge for the
first time, it is important to “condition”
the filter cartridge. If the filter cartridge is
not conditioned properly then water may
not pass into the water carafé.
Remove the filter cartridge from its
wrapper.
Place the filter cartridge on its side, in a
clean container. Fully cover the filter
cartridge with cold water. Keep the filter
cartridge fully submerged for 5 minutes.
Before removing the filter cartridge from
the water, shake the filter cartridge
vigorously from end to end, to ensure all
the air bubbles have escaped.
Now that you have conditioned the filter
cartridge, place it inside the filter cartridge
holder of the inner vessel by holding the
conditioned filter cartridge by the narrow
end and inserting into the filter cartridge
holder.Push down gently to establish a seal.
Placing the inner vessel inside the carafé,
fill the inner vessel with water.Allow it to
filter through into the filter carafé. Once
filtered empty this out. Repeat this
process two or three times to ensure all
the residual carbon dust has been
removed.The water will then appear clear
in the filter carafé.
Note: Average filter time for 1 litre of water is
approximately 4-5 minutes.The longer water takes
to filter the better quality of filtered water.
FITTING THE WATER FILTER
CARTRIDGE INTO THE
CARAFÉ
Before using the carafé for the first time,
wash and rinse the carafé, inner vessel and
lid thoroughly.
Fit the inner vessel into the filter carafé.
Hold the conditioned filter by the narrow
end and insert into the filter holder. Push
down gently to establish the seal.
Note:The filter cartridge does not lock into place.
USING THE CARAFÉ
Fill the inner vessel with tap water and
allow the water to filter into the carafé,
Once the water has filtered through,
the top inner vessel can be refilled again
with water.This will then gradually filter
through as water is used from the water
carafé.
Note: If water is inside the inner vessel, when you
pour ensure that you hold the lid on firmly whilst
pouring to prevent unfiltered water from pouring
into your glass.
REPLACEMENT FILTER
CARTRIDGES
Use only Kambrook replacement filter
cartridges – model numbers KWF100B
(single pack) or KWF103B (3-pack)
The filter cartridge will last for
approximately 200 litres or approximately
one month - this will vary greatly depend
on the quality of tap water in your local
area.
Replacement filter cartridges are available
from the store where you purchased this
filter carafé as well as other retailers.
If you need the name of a stockist nearest
you please call 1300 139 798. (Australia)
CLEANING THE CARAFÉ
We recommend that you wash the entire
unit every time you change the filter.
Wash the unit thoroughly, if using
dishwashing detergents ensure that you
rinse the unit well - so the detergent is
not able to be tasted.

Do not use any abrasive cleaners or harsh
cleaners.
