BRITA filtration

Filtering your water improves the taste and appearance of beverages by reducing limescale, lead, chlorine and other impurities.

The BRITA MAXTRA Filter Cartridge offers improved filtration due to MAXTRA Technology. The natural MicroporeFilter in combination with the powerful Protect Filter reduces chlorine and limescale for a great natural taste and further reduces metals such as lead and copper. Unique flow control ensures the perfect filtration time for best results.

For maximum filter performance and for optimum taste, it is important to change your BRITA MAXTRA Filter Cartridge regularly. BRITA recommends that you replace the cartridge every 4 weeks.

Using the BRITA filtration system is optional. If you do not wish to use the filtration system, simply remove the BRITA Hopper (21) and MAXTRA Filter Cartridge (19) from the Water Tank (7).

Filtering water through the BRITA Filtration System takes roughly 4 minutes to filter 1.5L of water. You can use the system while filtering, providing enough water has filtered into the Water Tank.

Installing a BRITA MAXTRA Cartridge

2 Push the BRITA MAXTRA Cartridge into place in the BRITA Hopper.

3 Place the BRITA Hopper into the Water Tank. Before returning the Water Tank to the Main Unit, fill the BRITA Hopper with Cold Water and allow the water to filter through the BRITA MAXTRA Cartridge. Discard the filtered water. Repeat this step twice.

4 Fill the BRITA Hopper with fresh water and return the Water Tank to the main unit. Your BRITA Cartridge is ready for use with your Hot Water Dispenser.

BRITA Memo
