Start Up Procedures (cont.)
Install battery.
• Remove battery and monitor assembly from plastic bag inside
the pitcher. Turn the monitor cover over and remove battery
cover by removing the screw and prying the cover off.
• Insert one CR2032, 3 volt battery positive “+” side up under
the retaining clip.
NOTE: Make sure the positive (+) side of the battery is up.
• Replace the battery cover by pressing around the lip to make
sure it is fully installed.
• The blue light will flash five times, indicating that the timer is
working. NOTE: If the blue light does not flash, check battery
orientation.
• Press the monitor cover into place on the handle. It will snap
when it is in the proper position.
Replace lid cover. The lid will snap when it is in the proper
location. Open the sliding lid and fill the reservoir with cold
tap water and set the pitcher aside. Filtered water will begin
to collect in the bottom of the pitcher. Continue to add water
until the filtered water in the pitcher reaches the bottom of
the reservoir. Do not overfill. Keep water below the bottom
edge of the slot (see illustration below). Close the sliding
lid on the pitcher.
NOTE: If small, black carbon particles are present in the
filtered drinking water, the filter cartridge may not have been
thoroughly flushed. These small carbon particles are harmless,
though it may be necessary to empty the first 1–2 pitchers of
filtered water to flush out any remaining carbon particles.
Keep pitcher filter refrigerated at all times. After 3 to 4 days,
replace unused water with fresh, clean water.
