See Step 2 of Installation in Five Easy Steps to determine if you need
to use an adapter. Check to see that you have correctly inserted the
proper adapter and washer.
Call Brita Consumer Services at 1-800-24-BRITA (U.S.) or
1-800-387-6940 (Canada).
Check to see that you placed the washer between the faucet and
the adapter. Check to see that the mounting collar is tight and the
threading is aligned with the faucet or adapter threading. Only water
from filter port is filtered. All other water is unfiltered.
Make sure the filter cartridge is locked into place. Water leaking or
spraying from system may not be filtered. Only water from filter port is
filtered. All other water is unfiltered.
Remove the system from the faucet and clean the sediment from the
strainer in the mounting collar. If flow rate of filtered water remains
slow, replace filter cartridge. Although Brita
replacement filters have an extra layer to reduce sediment buildup,
very high sediment in your water may cause the system to prematurely
clog before the typical end of filter life. The clogging means that your
®
Brita Faucet Filtration System is removing the sediment from your tap
water. See directions for early filter replacement on page 5.
Remove the filter from the base and press the metal pin a few times
until the indicator window is entirely green. Then re-insert the filter.
