Instructions for use for the BRITA
Little effort – great result: Preparation of your BRITA cartridge is very simple.
Please follow the three steps below to enjoy BRITA filtered water (see pictures on page 83):
Step 1: Preparing the cartridge
To prepare your BRITA MAXTRA
cartridge, please remove protective
wrapper (note: cartridge and inside
wrapper may appear moist, this is
simply condensation). Immerse
cartridge in cold water and shake it
gently to remove any air bubbles. Note:
As is required for some other water
filter cartridges, there is no need to
pre-soak the MAXTRA cartridge.
If you have not used all the filtered water in the water tank within 1–2 days, please discard any water left inside the BRITA water filter unit
before refilling it. BRITA recommends that you thoroughly clean the complete unit (funnel and water tank) regularly. Please note that the
BRITA Memo on top of the water tank lid is not dishwasher proof. Always make sure that you have MAXTRA spare cartridges to hand.
When buying new cartridges, look for the BRITA MAXTRA filter on the cartridge packaging.

The BRITA Memo
For maximum filter performance and for optimum taste, it is
important to change your BRITA cartridge regularly.
BRITA Memo automatically reminds you when to
change the cartridge
The BRITA Memo measures the recommended time of use of your
cartridge. Memo is easy to use and automatically reminds you
when to change your cartridge. The BRITA Memo is located on the
lid of the water tank. Operation is really simple (see pictures on
page 83):
Note:
When only one bar is showing, you should just check whether you have a new BRITA MAXTRA filter cartridge to hand.
Important: The Memo is only designed to be used with BRITA filter cartridges.
BRITA Memo
The cartridge exchange indicator has a life of approximately five years. At the end of the Memo's life, please remember that this device must
be disposed of according to all applicable provisions and regulations. To remove the exhausted Memo place a screwdriver in the notch next
to the Memo and push it out. Please note that Memo should not be removed for any other reason than to dispose of it.

Step 2: Insert in the water tank
Before inserting the cartridge, remove
the funnel and clean it thoroughly by
rinsing it and wiping it dry. Then
thoroughly clean the inside of the water
tank with a damp cloth and wipe it dry
as well. Now insert the filter cartridge
firmly in the cartridge housing of the
funnel in the water tank. The cartridge
should stay in place if the funnel is
turned upside down.
Step 3: Rinse cartridge
Take the funnel out of the BRITA water
filter unit, fill it under the tap with cold
tap water and allow it to filter through.
Discard the first two fillings into the
sink or use the water for your plants.
These first two fillings are used to
flush the filter cartridge. Then place
the funnel back into the unit and refill
the funnel. Now the unit is ready for
use.
• Start the Memo display:
To start Memo, please press and hold down the start button on the
lid until all four bars appear in the display and flash twice. The
Memo is now set.
• Functional control:
The flashing dot in the bottom right corner of the Memo indicates
that the Memo is working.
• Change display:
The bars in the display will disappear, thus indicating the remaining
cartridge life. Please change your MAXTRA cartridge when all four
bars have disappeared and the arrow starts to flash. Insert a new
cartridge according to the instructions and reactivate the Memo as
described above.
Remove cartridge with ring pull
To exchange the cartridge, simply use
the ring pull handle on the top of the
cartridge to remove it from the funnel,
and repeat steps 1–3 above.
