MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ PITCHER
Important: make sure to never push the piston
downwards inside the cylinder if it is still empty and
not filled with cold tap water previously filtered with
Bi-flux cartridge, in order to avoid any air to enter.

9) Unscrew the MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter from the
cylinder of the activation pump (fig. 13).
10) Assemble the MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter to the
bottom of the hopper by screwing it (fig. 14).
11) Place the hopper into the main unit.

1) Remove the lid from the pitcher, turn it upside down and
slightly push the manual indicator on its backside, in order
to partially extract it from the lid (fig. H2 and fig. H3).
2) Turn the upper lens of the indicator clockwise as
indicated in fig. H3, to set the start month and week for
the cartridge (fig. I). The month and week of reference
must be aligned with the red sign printed on the upper
lens of the indicator. Insert the manual indicator into the
lid by pushing as per fig. H4.
USING THE WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM
ATTENTION! MANDATORY:
At FIRST USE:
1) Fill the hopper with cold potable
water up to the top level of the
same and allow filtering without
x5 closing the lid.
L
2) Discard the water filtered in the
previous section (or use it to
water your plants).
3) Repeat the operation until 5L have
been filtered and discarded.
Repeat these operations also in case you don't use the
system for 15 days and every time you
replace the cartridge/filter
Place the pitcher under the tap so that the water jet directly
enters the hopper through the opening in the lid. Turn on the
tap (the pressure of the water jet should not be too strong in
order to avoid splashes): the water automatically opens the
automatic quick-fill and directly enters the hopper (fig. 4A).
Fill the hopper to the top with cold tap water.
When the hopper is almost full the automatic quick-fill
gradually closes: reduce the water flow and shut off the tap
when the automatic quick-fill closes (fig. 4B). It is in any case
recommended to check the water level in the hopper from
one side of the pitcher.
Keep the water pitcher in the fridge. The refrigerator must
be kept in a good condition.
Caution:
• In the case of non-use of the ultra-filtration system for
24 hours, discard the water that remains inside it, then
fill the hopper and let it filter. The system is ready for use
again.
• Keep the product away from heat sources and direct
sunlight.
• Only use cold water (+4°C: +30°C).
• Only filter water; do not filter any other type of liquid.
FILTER AND CARTRIDGE LIFE-TIME
• Bi-flux cartridge:
®
150 liters or 1 month (what comes first).
• MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter:
MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ blocks microplastics and
suspended particles (water turbidity). The filter stops
working when its hollow fibers pores are completely
blocked. Tests carried out with challenge water with a
30 FAU turbidity indicate a life-time of 1000 Liters.
FILTER AND CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT
• Bi-flux cartridge:
®
For replacement of the cartridge remove it from the
hopper by pulling it upwards, as shown in fig. 15, and
repeat the operations as indicated in the section:
"ULTRA-FILTRATION SYSTEM PREPARATION -
PREPARATION OF BI-FLUX
• MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter:
For replacement of the filter remove it from the hopper
by unscrewing it as shown in fig. 16 and repeat the
operations as indicated in the section: "ULTRA-
FILTRATION SYSTEM PREPARATION - PREPARATION
OF MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ FILTER".
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Washing instructions for the pitcher lid:
Remove the lid from the jug, turn it upside down and
remove the manual indicator by pushing on its backside
(fig. H2). Then hand wash the lid in warm water and
washing-up liquid. Dry the lid and insert the indicator
into the lid by pushing as per fig. H4.
• Washing instructions for the hopper's funnel:
Clean the funnel internally and its cap with a cleaning brush
at least 2-3 times a week. After cleaning, close the funnel
with the cap and take care not to lose it (fig. 17).
• Washing instructions for all other components:
Always remove the MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter and the
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. Wash all the components, except for the
Bi-flux cartrige, the MikroPLASTIK-STOP™ filter and
®
the removable manual indicator, by hand with warm
water and washing-up liquid at least 2-3 times a week.
