IMPORTANT NOTES
Always treat the filtered water as a “food stuff” and
follow the hygiene guidelines below:
● Always wash your hands before handling the
unwrapped filter cartridges, especially if you have been
preparing raw food such as meat or poultry.
● Consume filtered water immediately. Discard any
unused filtered water after 24 hours.
● The filter is for treating cold mains tap water only.
● During prolonged period of non use (eg holiday), any
unwrapped or partly-used cartridges should be stored
in the refrigerator.
● If the filter has not been used for 48 hours, flush the
cartridge through by filling the hopper twice and
discarding the water.
● For hygiene reasons and regardless of usage always
change the cartridge every 30 days.
● Like tap water, filtered water should be boiled and
cooled before being given to babies and young infants.
● Always check the date code on the cartridge wrapper.
If past the use by date, discard.
● Do not store the cartridges next to household
chemicals or cleaning products.
● In the event of your water supplier issuing a “boil
notice” (or similar emergency indicating that your water
supply may be temporarily unsafe) the filter system
should not be used, and any cartridge in use should be
disposed of.
before plugging in
● Make sure your electricity supply is the same as the
one shown on the underside of your kettle.
● This kettle complies with European Economic
Community Directive 89/336/EEC.
