3 Insert the MAXTRA+ water lter
B
For optimal ltration results it is key that the MAXTRA+ water
lter is properly inserted.
The new BRITA PerfectFit system gives you reassurance of a
proper ltration by allowing water to only ow when the BRITA
MAXTRA+ water lter is fully inserted and creating the right
seal. Insert the funnel (4) into the jug (5). Place the MAXTRA+
water lter into the hollow of the funnel and push downwards
until it is positioned rmly. If there is no water ow through the
funnel after lling the jug with water, the water lter is not fully
inserted. Please press the water lter a bit further down and try
again. BRITA water lter jugs are especially designed to t with
MAXTRA+ water lters. BRITA can therefore only guarantee
optimal ltration when using a BRITA MAXTRA+ water lter.

The MAXTRA+ water lter must be activated with the rst two
llings. Discard the rst two llings or use the water for your
plants. With the third lling the MAXTRA+ water lter jug is
ready for use – you will enjoy cleaner*, fresher tasting BRITA
ltered water. In case that carbon particles are released please
rinse the funnel and insert the water lter again. For detailed
information about particles please see paragraph “Natural
traces” under “Important notes”.

6 Water lter exchange indicator
adjustment
Your BRITA water lter exchange indicator will prompt you
when you need to change the MAXTRA+ water lter. The
indicator is in the lid of your BRITA water lter jug. BRITA
recommends the exchange of your MAXTRA+ water lter
at least every four weeks to ensure optimum ltration
performance.

The BRITA Memo reminds you to change your MAXTRA+ water
lter every four weeks. After activating the MAXTRA+ water
lter, please remove protective foil from Memo display and press
the “START” button until all four bars appear in the display and
ash twice. A small ashing dot at the bottom right corner of the
display shows the BRITA Memo is working. Each bar refers to
a lifetime of approx. one week. The recommended MAXTRA+
water lter life of four weeks equals four bars or 100%. After each
week one bar will disappear to show the remaining MAXTRA+
water lter life. Change the MAXTRA+ water lter when all
the bars have disappeared and the arrow starts to ash.
7 Exchange of the MAXTRA+ water lter
G
Pull the MAXTRA+ water lter out. Follow the instructions for
“Quality from the very start” from step 1 to 6.
III. Important notes
Do not expose your BRITA water lter jug to direct sunlight.
Keep your BRITA water lter jug away from heating elements,
e.g. oven, coffee machine. Store your BRITA water lter jug in
a shady, cool place.
BRITA ltered water is dedicated for human consumption only.
It is a perishable food and as such please consume it within
one day.
Ensure that you have a new MAXTRA+ water lter ready
for exchange. BRITA recommends to store your MAXTRA+
water lter in their original wrapping in a cool and dry place.
Over the lifetime of the BRITA water lter jug you may notice
limescale build-up on the lid. This is due to the fact that it can
come in contact with water containing carbonate hardness
(e.g. limescale) or other minerals. Should your BRITA water
lter jug not be in use for a prolonged period (e.g. holiday),
BRITA recommends that you take out the MAXTRA+ water
lter, discard any water left inside, or use it for your plants,
and loosely insert the MAXTRA+ water lter again.
Before using the BRITA water lter jug again take out the
MAXTRA+ water lter, clean the water lter and repeat steps
3 to 5 of the „Quality from the very start”. Please pay special
attention to your BRITA water lter exchange indicator.
Optimum performance
Please lter cold water (max. 30 °C) only.
Do not lter water which is not adequate
for human consumption before ltering.
BRITA water lter jugs are designed for use only with
properly treated water, which is safe to drink according
to the BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards) drinking water quality
standards, and any other statutory required standards at the
time in force, and free from microbiological impurities, such as
bacteria, viruses and cysts.
In the event: lter rst, and then boil
If an instruction is received from the authorities that mains
water must be boiled, then BRITA ltered water must also be
boiled. When the instruction to boil water is no longer in force,
the entire BRITA water lter jug must be thoroughly cleaned
and a new MAXTRA+ water lter inserted.
For certain groups of people (e.g. those with impaired
immunity and for babies), it is generally recommended that
drinking water should be boiled; this also applies to BRITA
ltered water. Irrespective of the water used, you should use
utensils with stainless steel or kettles with concealed elements.
In particular, people who are sensitive to nickel should use
appliances made of stainless steel or kettles with concealed
elements.
Hygiene
For hygiene reasons, the MAXTRA+ water lter contents are
subject to special treatment with silver. A very small amount of
silver may be transferred to the water. This transference would
be within the World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines.
Sensitive to potassium?
During the ltering process, there may be a slight increase
in potassium content. However, one litre of BRITA ltered
water contains less potassium than e.g. an apple. If you have
kidney disease and/ or follow a potassium restricted diet,
we recommend that you consult your doctor before using a
BRITA water lter jug.
Natural traces
Like each natural product, the consistency of the BRITA
Micro Carbon Pearls is subject to natural variances. This can
lead to a slight abrasion of small carbon particles into your
ltered water, noticeable as black bits. These particles have
no negative health effects. If ingested, they will not harm the
human body. In case you observe carbon particles, BRITA
recommends to ush the water lter several times with water
which is safe to drink.
Correctly dispose of BRITA Memo
The BRITA Memo contains a battery
and have a life of approx. ve years.
At the end of their lives please
remember that these devices must be
disposed according to all applicable
provision and regulations. To remove
the exhausted BRITA Memo place a
screwdriver in the notch next to the
BRITA Memo and push it out.
Please note that the BRITA Memo should not be removed for
any other reason than to dispose of it.
Exclusion of liability
Please understand that BRITA cannot accept any liability on
their part if you do not follow the given usage instructions.
Dispose of the jug and the used water lter in accordance
with local regulations.
