THE BRITA MAXTRA CARTRIDGE & CARE OF SYSTEM
The BRITA Maxtra cartridge
The BRITA Maxtra cartridge reduces substances
like chlorine, limescale (carbonate hardness),
aluminium, heavy metals (like lead and copper)
and certain pesticides as well as organic
impurities. To achieve optimum filter performance
BRITA recommend that if you have re-filled the
funnel 2–3 times in quick succession you should
allow the cartridge to rest by not refilling the funnel
again for 15–30 minutes.
You will enjoy cleaner, clearer, great tasting water
for hot and cold drinks and for preparing food.
BRITA filtered water also protects your domestic
appliances against limescale build-up.
The BRITA Maxtra cartridge: When to change?
To ensure optimum performance you should
change your cartridge every four weeks. The
electronic "Memo" or the exchange indicator
"Calendar" reminds you when to change. Cartridge
life depends on local water quality, for example in an
area with hard water (based on carbonate hardness
of 12° to 14.5° German hardness) the BRITA Maxtra
cartridge will filter approx. 100 litres.

To exchange the cartridge, simply pull the ring on
the top of the cartridge (please see illustration 7)
and follow the instructions for 'First use and
cartridge exchange'. Please remember to reset
the electronic "Memo" or to adjust the BRITA
"Calendar" exchange indicator (follow instructions
on "Memo" or "Calendar").
Please look for the BRITA Maxtra
icon on the cartridge packaging to
help find your cartridge in store.
Please store any replacement cartridge in the
original sealed wrapper and in a dry and cool place.
Care of system
• Keep your water filter system out of sunlight and
away from heating elements, e.g. stove, coffee
machine. We recommend to store your water
filter in a cool place.
• Remember that water is a foodstuff. Please
consume filtered water within one to two days.
• Wash the parts of your filter system regularly
in warm soapy water at least every time you
change the filter cartridge. Do not use any
abrasive cleaners. Note: the jug and the funnel
may be washed in the dishwasher. The lid must
not be washed in the dishwasher.

• Should your BRITA system not be in use
for a prolonged period (e.g. vacation), we
recommend that you discard any water left
inside the system and leave the cartridge inside
the funnel. Before using the system again take
out the cartridge, clean the system, and repeat
steps 2 to 5 of the "First use and cartridge
exchange".
• Note: For BRITA water filters jugs featuring
a pour through lid with automatic filling
mechanism: Over the lifetime of the jug you
may notice limescale build-up on the lid and
the automatic filling mechanism. This is due
to the fact that it always comes into contact
with unfiltered water, which contains carbonate
hardness (limescale). BRITA recommend
that you clean and de-scale your lid and the
automatic filling mechanism on a regular basis.
Only use common household citric acid base
de-scaling fluid.
