• BRITA water filters are designed for use only
with municipally treated tap water (note:
This water is constantly controlled and
according to legal regulations safe to drink)
or with water from private supplies that has
been tested as safe to drink. If an instruction
is received from the authorities that mains
water must be boiled, the BRITA filtered wa-
ter must also be boiled. When the instruction
to boil water is no longer in force, the hot
water appliance and funnel must be cleaned
and a new cartridge inserted.
• Please filter cold tap water only.
• Clean the hot water appliance and funnel
regularly.
• 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 BRITA
filtered water. Irrespective of the water
used you should use utensils with stainless
steel or hot water appliances with concealed
elements. This product of our BRITA partner
meets these requirements. In particular,
people who are sensitive to nickel should
use appliances made of stainless steel or hot
water appliances with concealed elements.
• For hygiene reasons, the MAXTRA cartridge
contents are subject to special treatment
with silver. A very small amount of silver may
be transferred to the water. This transfer-
ence would be within the World Health
Organisation (WHO) guidelines.
• During the filtering process, there may
be a slight increase in potassium content.
However, one litre of BRITA filtered 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 filter.
• Should your BRITA hot water appliance not
be in use for a prolonged period (e.g. holiday),
BRITA recommends that you take out the
cartridge, discard any water left inside the
BRITA water filter and loosely insert the
MAXTRA cartridge again. Before using
the BRITA water filter again take out the
cartridge, clean the hot water appliance and
funnel thoroughly and repeat steps 1 to 3 of
the instructions for use.
• BRITA filtered water is dedicated for human
consumption. It is a perishable food and as
such please consume within one to two
days.
• Like each natural product, the consistency
of the BRITA MicroporeFilter is subject to
natural variances. 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. If
ingested, they will not harm the human body.
In case you observe carbon particles, BRITA
recommends to flush the cartridge several
times or until the black bits disappear.
• BRITA cannot accept responsibility or liability
if you do not respect our recommendations
for the use and exchange of the BRITA filter
cartridge.
