The benefits of using Claris Filter cartridge
You can use your Quick Cup without a cartridge but
for best results we recommend using a Claris filter
cartridge. The Claris Filter cartridge will only filter
the water as you dispense it, so you always have
fresh filtered water. The cartridge contains an anti-
lime substance and activated carbon that reduces
chlorine, impurities, lead, copper, pesticides etc that
are present in water. Minerals and trace elements
are preserved. You can purchase a cartridge - ref:
XH5001 from our web site: www.tefal.co.uk.
