clear and airflow is not obstructed. Restricted
airflow will cause inecient operation of the
refrigeration system.

Billi Filter Cartridges
The Billi B-5000 features the Billi swing-
change filtration system. The B-5000 is fitted
with a single filter. The filters use Fibredyne™
technology which is fibrous and matted
together, increasing the surface area of the
carbon, meaning there is greater contact
time and improved quality of filtration. It
incorporates five stage filtration, removing
sediment and chemical elements as well as
enabling minerals to flow though the appliance
without allowing scale build up and arresting
the growth of bacterial microorganisms such
as giardia and cryptosporidium. Use only
genuine filters as designed for this system. All
drinking water filtration systems should be
flushed after a period of non-use.
Replacement of Billi Filter Cartridge
Periodic replacement of your Billi B-5000
filter cartridge is necessary to maintain the
sparkling cleanliness and purity of your
drinking water.
A replacement filter change service is
available. To arrange, contact the Billi Service
centre on 1800 812 321.
If you wish to install the replacement filter
cartridges yourself, filters can be purchased
online at www.billi.com.au or through a
certified agent which will provide genuine Billi
replacement filter cartridge sets.
Filter Change Due Monitor
The B-5000 filter change due monitor operates
by counting the number of cups dispensed
and the number of days elapsed until
a pre-set level is reached. Once reached,
the yellow filter icon as pictured above
will turn on. The B-5000 will continue to
operate while the filter indicator is flashing.
Water filters installed in areas with higher
levels of sediment will experience a reduced
service life. It may be necessary to change
filters before the change filter indicator
flashes. If particularly dirty water is noticed
coming through the water supply, e.g. from
other tap ware, immediately place your Billi
B-5000 into Holiday Mode by pressing the
Pressure Relief button. This will help prevent
premature blocking of the filter cartridges.
