MAINTENANCE AND CARE
How to install a new LIFESAVER
®
jerrycan UF cartridge
Before changing your cartridge, try front-
side washing first to remove particulate
matter (page 10). This may just extend the
life of your cartridge long enough to meet
your requirements.
As the LIFESAVER
®
jerrycan has been
designed for exceptional service life, it
is rare that you will need to change the
cartridge whilst in the field. However,
should it be necessary, it is very important
that you follow these instructions carefully:
• Empty the jerrycan of water.
• Unscrew & remove tap cap and tap.
• Remove the old cartridge
1
and
discard it responsibly.
• Thoroughly clean the LIFESAVER
®
jerrycan and pump by washing it with
mild washing up liquid in warm water
(use a soft cloth for this). Ensure that
all dirt is removed and the jerrycan is
thoroughly clean. Rinse thoroughly and
allow to dry.
• Remove the new LIFESAVER
®
jerrycan
UF cartridge from it’s packaging.
• Insert the new cartridge into the jerrycan.
• Insert the tap into the tap cap
2
and
thread onto the jerrycan.

Ensure that
the tap cap is tightened firmly.
• You now need to prime the cartridge.
(See page 6 for priming)
Your LIFESAVER
®
jerrycan is now ready
to use again.

CAUTION
Changing your LIFESAVER
®
cartridge in the field causes
a heightened risk of cross
contamination during cartridge
change over. Should you need
to replace your cartridge, ensure
you have clean, dry hands. Once
the expired cartridge is removed,
clean, disinfect and dry the
jerrycan before inserting the new
cartridge. This will reduce the
risk of cross contamination.
