IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
Read these instructions carefully and keep them for future use.
If this product is passed to a third party, then these instructions
must be included.
When using the product, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of injury including the following:
The water filter system is designed for use only with microbiologically
and chemically safe drinking water (municipally treated tap water or
water from private supplies which has been tested as safe to drink).
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown
quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. If an
instruction is received from authorities that water must be boiled, the
filtered water must also be boiled. When the instruction to boil water
is no longer in force, the entire system must be properly cleaned and
a new cartridge inserted.
Filter cold water only (maximum temperature: 85°F / 29°C, minimum
temperature: 33°F / 0.6°C).
For certain groups of people (e.g. those with impaired immunity and
for babies), it is generally recommended that tap water should be
boiled; this also applies to filtered water. Irrespective of the water
used, you should use utensils with stainless steel, such as kettles and
saucepans, to boil the water. In particular, people who are sensitive
to nickel should use appliances made of stainless steel or kettles with
concealed elements.
The filter has been specially treated with silver to preserve the filter
media and inhibit the growth of bacteria that may affect the filter
media. The antimicrobial properties of the treated filter media do
not protect users or others against bacteria, viruses, germs or other
disease organisms. A very small amount of silver may be transferred
to the water. This transference would be within the World Health
Organization (WHO) guidelines.
During the filtering process, there may be a slight increase in
potassium content. Note that 0.26 gallons (1 liter) of filtered water
contains less potassium than an apple or banana. However, if you
have kidney disease and/or follow a potassium-restricted diet, we
recommend that you consult your doctor before using a water filter.
Like any natural product, the consistency of activated carbon is
subject to natural variance. This can lead to a slight abrasion of small
carbon particles into your filtered water, noticeable as black bits.
These particles have no negative health effects and are not harmful
if consumed. In case you observe carbon particles, we recommend
flushing the filter several times until the black bits disappear.
