BRITA

MAXTRA+ FILTER CARTRIDGE
The filter cartridge contains ion exchange resin and activated carbon.
Reduces limescale and substances, e.g. chlorine, that affect taste and odour.
Reducing the impurities and permanently absorbing copper and lead, makes the water look
and taste better, and the reduction in limescale helps your kettle too.
Remember – water goes off. Use filtered water within one day.
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Press the lid lock to open the lid.
• Remove the lter cartridge from inside the kettle
• Fill the kettle with water to the ‘max’ level, boil, discard the water, and then rinse, to
remove any dust, residues, etc., from the kettle. Repeat as required.
