1 Cleaning instructions for your new BRITA water filter jug
before first use and after every water filter exchange

Funnel and jug

Dishwasher safe (max. 50 °C).
For best cleaning results, turn the funnel upside down and let tap water flow through the
valve for a few seconds.
If your BRITA water filter jug has been in contact with food that is likely to cause
discolouration (e.g. tomato ketchup, mustard) clean your BRITA water filter jug. To avoid
possible discolouration of your BRITA water filter jug, do not include it in a dishwasher
containing dirty crockery from such foods.

Lid with BRITA Smart Light.

Before cleaning the lid in the dishwasher please remove the BRITA Smart Light from the
lid by turning it anti-clockwise.
The removed BRITA Smart Light must not be washed in the dishwasher. After removal
clean the BRITA Smart Light by hand using a soft and damp cloth. After cleaning the lid
simplyinsert the BRITA Smart Light back into the lid by turning it clockwise as far as it will
turn.

Please use mild detergents but no abrasive cleaners. For descaling the

descaling fluids.

2 Preparation of the MAXTRA+ water filter

For quality you can trust: BRITA hot steam treatment for ultimate hygiene in every
MAXTRA+ water filter. Remove the protective wrapper from the MAXTRA+ water filter
(Note: The MAXTRA+ water filter may be damp from steam treatment process). Fill the
clean jug with cold water. Immerse the MAXTRA+ water filter in cold water and shake it
gently to remove any air bubbles. Remove the MAXTRA+ water filter and discard the used
water.
3 Insert the MAXTRA+ water filter
For optimal filtration results it is key that the MAXTRA+ water filter is properly inserted. The
new BRITA PerfectFit system gives you reassurance of a proper filtration by allowing water
to only flow when the BRITA MAXTRA+ water filter is fully inserted and creating the right
seal. Insert the funnel (4) into the jug (5). Place the MAXTRA+ water filter into the hollow
of the funnel and push downwards until it is positioned firmly. If there is no water flow
through the funnel after filling the jug with water, the water filter is not fully inserted. Please
press the water filter a bit further down and try again. BRITA water filter jugs are especially
designed to fit with MAXTRA+ water filters. BRITA can therefore only guarantee optimal
filtration when using a BRITA MAXTRA+ water filter.
4 Filling of the BRITA water filter jug
The filling method depends on the features in the lid of your BRITA water filter model. The
water in the funnel is automatically filtered and flows into the jug.
Variants of the lid

opening under the tap. Fill your BRITA water filter jug directly under the tap with cold water.
