CARBON POST FILTER
e lter contains water washed granular activated carbon (GAC) produced
from organic coconut shell that is tested and certied to be California Prop
65 compliant.
Post ltration is used as a nal treatment to eectively remove volatile
organic compounds (VOCs). It signicantly reduces trihalomethanes,
synthetic organic compounds such as pesticides and hydrocarbons, and
petrochemical byproducts such as benzene, toluene, and methyl tertiary-
butyl ether (MTBE).
Preparation
1. Wash your hands with soap and warm water.
2. Remove lter from plastic bag.
3. Fill a clean container with distilled or boiled tap water.
4. Slowly immerse a narrow end of the lter bag into the water.
5. Once the bottom quarter (¼) is wet, slowly immerse entire bag,
squeezing gently to remove air. If the bag “pus up,” you are immers-
ing it too quickly.
6. After the bag has been immersed, remove from the water and rinse it
by pouring more distilled or boiled tap water over bag to remove any
carbon nes (dust).
Installation
1. Be sure carbon is evenly distributed within bag, then place bag in lter
compartment (g. B).
2. Replace cover on compartment and place lid on carafe.
3. Discard rst gallon of distilled water as it may contain some harmless
matter from manufacturing and/or packaging.
