Reminders

is turned to the side) until you’re ready to dispense
your water.
C. Fill the upper container with water and allow it to filter into
the lower water container. The initial fill needs to full saturate
the filter with water.
D. Since fine particles of carbon may flush from the filter
initially, please discard the water and then refill and discard
a second time. (Please note that it may take more than an
hour for each round of water to flow through the filter.)

empty the lower water container

drink.

a year. More frequent replacement may be required
depending on frequency of use and source water.
