Soaking & Flushing Filters
For pitchers, you should soak your filter before inserting it:
Wash hands with soap and water, then remove filter from filter bag.
Soak the filter upright in cold water for 15 minutes.
Hold filter upright under cold, running tap water for a few seconds.
Faucet Filters
Faucet filters don’t require soaking, however, the system does need to be flushed for five
minutes to activate the filter media and remove any carbon dust. The 378-litre filter life begins
AFTER flushing for five minutes so you are not wasting filter life by the flushing process.
Brita® Bottles
Bottle filters don’t require soaking. Squeeze one full bottle of water through the filter before use
to activate. It’s normal for black carbon dust to appear.
Cleaning
Brita

Pitchers and Dispensers are very low maintenance when it comes to upkeep and care.
You can simply hand wash the lid and reservoir with a mild detergent.
If you have a Brita
®
Chrome Pitcher lid, wipe with a soft sponge soaked in a solution of one
teaspoon of white vinegar in a cup of water.
Brita
®
Bottle: The bottle, the small push-pull cap, large screw-on cap and the finger loop are
dishwasher safe (top shelf only). Or like pitchers and dispensers, you can hand wash the Brita
