to decrease water hardness, giving water with a superior purer taste***.
If regenerated regularly, the Soft water booster lasts up to 6 months.
On the top front of the water tank, the Pure protect alert display gives
clear feedback on the lifetime of the lter. Advanced electronics automatically
warn you when the lter is almost full and when replacement is required.

Important
Read this user manual carefully before you use the water purier and save
it for future reference.
Warning
- This water purier is not intended for use by persons (including children)
with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the water purier by a person
responsible for their safety.
- Only use the water purier to lter water that comes out of a tap in
your house, as this is municipal pretreated water.
- Do not use the water purier in combination with water that is
microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before or after ltration.
- Always handle the lters very carefully, because they have delicate
membranes. Do not modify the lters or drop them. Replace a lter if
it has been modied, if the outside is damaged or if you have dropped it.
- This water purier is intended for household use only.
Caution
- Make sure you install the water purier according to the instructions in
this user manual and local regulations.
- Place and use the water purier and your dispenser on a stable, level
and horizontal surface.
- Do not ll the water purier with water hotter than 40°C to prevent
damage to the water tanks and lters.
- This water purier is suitable for an environmental temperature of
5-38°C. Do not place the water purier in a place exposed to direct
sunlight, in a hot location (e.g. close to a cooker) or in a frosty location.
- Do not put any substance in the water purier other than water.
- Always remove the lters when you clean the water purier.
- When you have lled the raw water tank with water, the air inside
the Long-life lter rst has to escape before the water starts to ow
through it. Therefore it takes some time before ltered water starts to
ow into the clean water tank. This is normal.
- Always use original Philips replacement lters.
- Replace the lters according to the instructions in this user manual.
See chapter ‘Replacement’.
- Fully drain the clean water tank if the water purier has not been used
for 2 days or more and throw away this ltered water.

These descaling agents may damage your water purier.
- Systems certied for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected water
that may contain lterable cysts.
Hygiene
This Philips water purier gives you clean, safe drinking water that you can
trust. However, if the water purier is not used hygienically, it may pose
a risk of disease to users because it could cause microbes to end up in the
ltered water.
- Always wash your hands before you clean the water tanks.
- Always be aware of hygiene when you clean or touch surfaces that are in
contact with either the unltered or the ltered water, such as the inside
of the clean water tank and the lling opening of the raw water tank.
- Do not use a kitchen cloth or sponge to clean or dry the inside of the
raw water tank and the clean water tank, as they are likely to contain
bacteria. To clean the water tanks in a hygienic way, follow the cleaning
instructions in chapter ‘Cleaning and maintenance’.
- Always use clean, disinfected cloths and cleaning equipment to clean the
inside of the clean water tank and the outside of the raw water tank.
- Always disinfect cloths, the coin you use to tighten the bolt in the clean
water tank and cleaning equipment either by boiling them or by using a
disinfectant to clean them. We advise you to soak a cloth or sponge for
one minute in a solution of 10ml of household bleach (5% solution of
sodium hypochlorite) added to 1 litre of water.
- Always wash your hands after handling cloths, sponges or other cleaning
equipment.

Dispensing ltered water
The exact method for dispensing ltered water depends on the type of
dispenser you are using. Follow the instructions in the user manual of your
dispenser.
Pure protect alert display
Filter capacity indications
The Pure protect alert display provides feedback on when you have to
replace the Long-life lter.
- When you rst start using a Long-life lter, the display shows all 4
segments of the progress bar.
- The Pure protect alert display keeps track of the usage level of the
Long-life lter. When 25% of the lter capacity has been used, the
display shows 3 segments of the progress bar.
MAX
ENGLISH12

- When 50% of the lter capacity has been used, the display shows
2 segments of the progress bar.
- When 75% of the lter capacity has been used, the display shows
1 segment of the progress bar.
- When 90% of the lter capacity has been used, the display shows
1 segment of the progress bar and the lter replacement symbol. Make
sure you have a new Long-life lter available at this time. If you want,
you can replace the Long-life lter with a new one and reset the
display so that the lter capacity does not reach 0%.
Note: To reset the Pure protect alert display, press the display activation/reset
button for 3 seconds. When the display has been reset successfully, the display
ashes 3 times. Then the lter replacement symbol disappears and the display
shows all segments of the progress bar again.
- When the lter capacity reaches 0%, the lter replacement symbol and
two arrows ash. When this happens, you MUST replace the Long-life
lter immediately. After you have replaced this lter, reset the display.
ENGLISH 13

Note: To reset the Pure protect alert display, press the display activation/reset
button for 3 seconds. When the display has been reset successfully, the display
ashes 3 times. Then the lter replacement symbol disappears and the
display shows all segments of the progress bar again.
How the Pure protect alert display works
The Pure protect alert display is equipped with a counter that calculates
how much water you lter. The counter bases its calculation on the
assumption that you ll the water tank when it is completely empty and
that you ll it with approx. 5 litres of water. For extra health protection, the
counter also counts the number of days you have used the Long-life lter.
The progress bar decreases in length as time passes. The lter replacement
symbol appears 163 days after the rst day of use. It ashes with two arrows
when the lter has been used for 182 days in total*.
*Calculation based on a 4-person family with a daily water consumption of
4-6 litres. The Long-life lter lasts up to 6 months with a maximum lifetime
of 1000 litres.
- To save energy, the Pure protect alert display automatically goes out
1 minute after you have closed the lid. It lights up automatically when
you open the lid. Alternatively, you can also press the display activation/
reset button once to activate the display.
- When the battery of the Pure protect alert display is almost empty,
the battery symbol ashes on the display.
- When the display shows the battery symbol, you have to replace the
old battery with a new 3-volt CR2032 Lithium battery. See section
‘Replacing the battery of the Pure protect alert display’ in chapter
‘Replacement’.
Cleaning and maintenance
Only the outside of the water purier and the rust & sediment pre-lter
can be cleaned with hot water and a mild cleaning agent. The Long-life lter
cannot be cleaned but has to be replaced (see chapter ‘Replacement’).
The Soft water booster (WP3853 only) cannot be cleaned but has to be
regenerated (see section ‘Regenerating the Soft water booster (WP3853
only)’ in this chapter) and ultimately replaced.
Neverusescouringpads,detergents,abrasivecleaningagentsoraggressive
uidssuchasthinner,alcohol,petroloracetonetocleantheoutsideof
thewaterpurier.Thesesubstancesmaycausethematerialofthewater
puriertocrack,discolourordistort.Donotcleananypartofthewater
purierinadishwasherorwithboilingwater.
Donotuseakitchenspongeorclothtocleanordrytheinsideofthe
watertanksbecausetheyarelikelytocontainbacteria.Tocleanthe
watertanksinahygienicway,followthecleaninginstructionsbelow.
