Installation Tips

• Soaking the Filter: Soak the new filter cartridge in a bowl of cold water for 5–10 minutes before use.
• Rinsing: Rinse the soaked cartridge under running tap water for 30 seconds to flush out any loose carbon dust.
• Assembly: Slide the cartridge into the base, then push the tall handle down until it clicks into place.
• Base Attachment: Ensure the bottom of the filter assembly is aligned with the circular intake at the bottom of your water reservoir and press down firmly to seal.
• Reminder Dial: If your handle features a date dial, set it to the current month to track your 2-month replacement cycle.
