Instructions and guarantee
IMPORTANT:
1) Always remove the MikroPLASTIK-STOP™
filter and Bi-flux cartridge before washing the
®
hopper.
N.B. The filter may be difficult to remove: this
is normal because, due to safety issues, the
filter adheres to the hopper in order to prevent
unwanted leakages.
Do not wash the cartridge and filter with soap
or detergents.
2) Never wash MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter with
tap water and never filter directly tap water with
MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter. Always use water
already filtered by Bi-flux
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR PRODUCT USE
This system is for use on water supplies that have been
treated to public water system standards or that otherwise
are determined to be microbiologically safe as demonstrated
by routine testing.
This system has been tested to demonstrate protection
against intermittent accidental microplastic contamination of
safe drinking water.
• The Laica filtration system maintains the pH value
within the range indicated by European Directive EU
2020/2184 concerning the quality of water meant for
human consumption.
• The activated carbon contained in the Bi-flux
may release a certain amount of fine powder (which is
in no way harmful).
• Silver is used in the Bi-flux
bacteriostatic action. Any release of silver ions falls under
the guidelines from the World Health Organization (WHO).
• MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter flow rate and life time may
vary depending on the quantity, quality and temperature
of the filtered water.

ULTRA-FILTRATION SYSTEM PREPARATION
Wash the plastic parts of the device (except for the cartridge,
timer and filter) with potable water and washing-up liquid.
Make sure all the detergent is rinsed off after cleaning. Do
not use detergent on the filter and the cartridge. Never
wash the MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter with tap water.
The hopper has got a funnel (fig. E) for air outlet, closed by
a safety cap (fig. D). Take care of keeping always the funnel
closed. The hopper of the ultra-filtration system is made to
house Laica Bi-flux cartridge and Laica MikroPLASTIK-
®
STOP™ filter only.
PREPARATION OF BI-FLUX
1) Before proceeding with the following operations, wash
hands thoroughly with water and soap.
2) Remove the cartridge (fig. 1) from its bag.
3) Use a clean dish or surface to place the cartridge. Never
work in dirty conditions.
4) Soak the cartridge in a container full of cold tap water, for
approximately 15 minutes (fig. 2). Shake the cartridge
to release the air it contains.
5) Insert the cartridge into the hopper pressing slightly to
ensure correct insertion (fig. 3).
6) Fill the hopper with 1L of cold potable tap water. Let
it filter and then discard the filtered water (or use it to
water your plants).
7) Repeat point 6 until 3 liters has been filtered and
discarded.
8) In order to prepare the MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filters,
fill the hopper with at least 1L of cold potable tap water
and let it filter.
The Bi-flux system is now ready to be completed with the
®
MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ system.
PREPARATION OF MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter
1) Before preparing the device, wash your hands
thoroughly with water and soap.
2) Remove the filter (fig. 5) from its bag.
3) Use a clean dish or surface to place the filter. Never
work in dirty conditions.
4) Remove the Activation pump (fig. 6) from its bag and
never place it on dirty surfaces during operation.
5) Separate piston from cylinder by pulling it upwards.
6) Hook the MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter to the cylinder
by screwing it (fig. 8 and 9).
7) Fill the cylinder, once hooked to the filter, with cold
potable water previously filtered with Bi-flux
cartridge (see Bi-flux
(fig. 10).
ALWAYS USE WATER PREVIOUSLY FILTERED WITH
BI-FLUX CARTRIDGE

NEVER USE UNFILTERED WATER
8) Take the piston (fig. 7B) and push it downwards inside
the cylinder strongly enough to make the water go out
from the MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter and then pull it
upwards (fig. 11 and 12).
