BEFOREUSINGYOURWATERFILTER/CHILLER
Before using your water filter/chiller for the first time, it is recommended that the unit is flushed through with fresh water. Please ensure that you read the following instructions before flushing your water filter/chiller several times.
1.Remove your water filter/chiller carefully from the box. You may wish to store the packaging for future use.
2.Check the contents:
•Water filter/chiller
•BRITA MAXTRA water filter cartridge
•User guide
•BRITA brochure
•BRITA registration card
3.Wash the clear plastic lid, upper and filtered water tanks in warm soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.

5.Position the water filter/chiller on a stable flat surface, close to a mains power socket, not in direct sunlight and out of the reach of children.
6.Make sure that there is sufficient space around the water filter/chiller to allow the heat extracted during the chilling process to dissipate. Leave a gap of at least 15 cm between the ventilation slots on the rear of the chiller and any wall or surface.
Do not plug the unit in or install the filter cartridge yet.
7.Lift the hinged lid and using a suitable jug, pour 2 litres of clean water into the tank. Place a glass under the dispenser and push the dispensing lever back to drain all of the water. It may take some time for the water to initially flow through.
8.Repeat this process one more time.
