This product has been tested and certified by
the Water Quality Association according to NSF/
ANSI 42 for the reduction of Aesthetic Chlorine
and to NSF/ANSI 53 for the reduction of Copper,
as verified and substantiated by the test data,
and to CSA B483.1.
CAUTION: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
PREPARATION OF THE FILTER CARTRIDGE
1) First of all wash your hands.
2) Remove the cartridge from the bag (fig. A) and shake it for 10 seconds (fig. B).
3) Soak the cartridge in cold tap water for 15 minutes (fig. C). Shake it again to remove air bubbles.
4) Insert cartridge into the hole of the hopper. Press the cartridge firmly in (fig. D).
5) Fill the hopper with cold tap water to the top and let it filter through without closing the lid (fig. E).
6) Discard this water (or use for plants).
The first litres of filtered water could be of a dark colour due to the carbon particles dispersed in the
water. These particles have no negative health effects.
7) Repeat this operation (points 5 and 6) 3 times.
8) Remove the cartridge and put it on a clean surface (for example a dish). Wash all components. For the water
pitcher lid please refer to the paragraph “care of system”, 1) washing instructions for the carafe lid
Insert the hopper in the jug and the cartridge in the hopper.
ACTIVATION OF THE CARTRIDGE LIFE INDICATOR
1
Water filter with replaceable electronic litres-counter indicator
Take the lid. Keep the “O/I” key pressed for some seconds until the number “0” and a circle made of
4 sections stay fixed on the display (fig.1a).
The digits indicate the litres already filtered (up to a maximum of 150 litres); the circle made of 4
sections indicates the time still available for filtration (fig.1a).
Close the lid and filter 1 litre. The electronic display shows the number “1” and it is activated. The
electronic display shows the number of litres already filtred and the residual useful life of the cartridge (fig.1b
- fig. 1c - fig. 1d).
Once 150 litres have been filtered and/or after 60 days from the activation date, the numeric indicator returns
automatically to “0” and starts blinking: the filtering cartridge must be replaced (fig.1e).
Important: If you keep the “O/I” key pressed for some seconds, the display zeroes automatically the calculation
performed until that moment and reactivates the total filtering capacity.
The useful life of the replaceable electronic cartridge life indicator is about 2 years. After 2 years have elapsed,
the display of the electronic indicator will not display any symbol anymore. Ask your dealer for a spare electronic
indicator.

CAUTION: in the electronic counters, at the end of the cartridge life, the display blinks until it reaches the sleeping
mode, in order to avoid battery consumption. When replacing the cartridge, re-activate the display as indicated
in the paragraph “ACTIVATION OF THE CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT INDICATOR”.
FILLING OF THE WATER FILTER
Water filter with automatic pour through lid
Place the water filter system directly under the tap so that the water jet enters directly into the hopper through
the opening on the lid.
Turn on the tap (the pressure of the water jet should not be too strong, in order to avoid splashes): water opens
the device automatically.
Fill the hopper to the top with cold tap water (fig.F1).
The automatic pour through lid closes gradually, as the hopper fills: turn off the tap when the device closes (fig.
F2). It is recommended to check, from one side of the jug, the water level present in the hopper.
Water filter without automatic pour through lid
Fill in the hopper with the first water litre to the top (fig.F3) and close the lid. Once the water is completely
filtered, it is possible to use it or to fill the hopper again.
Your jug is now ready for use.
To ensure optimum performance
it is recommended not to filter
more than 5 litres a day (do not
filter 1 litre sooner than 45-60
minutes from previous one).
The filtering cartridge has
to be replaced every 150
litres / 60 filtration days
(maximum product efficiency
and safety is assured when
this instruction is observed).
REPLACEMENT OF THE FILTER CARTRIDGE
To replace the filter cartridge remove it from the hopper (fig.G). Refer to section above “PREPARATION OF THE
FILTER CARTRIDGE”

2) Wash the water filter system at least 2-3 times per week (excluding the cartridge) in warm soapy water, do
not use any abrasive cleaners.
3) Never wash the cartridge with soap or detergents.
4) Should your water filter system not be used for 48 hours, it is recommended to empty the water, remove the
cartridge, wash all parts thoroughly, re-insert the cartridge into the hopper and keep the empty water filter
system in the fridge. Before using the water filter system again read the section “PREPARATION OF THE FILTER
CARTRIDGE”.
5) The water filter jug has to be kept in the fridge. The fridge has to be kept in good hygiene.
6) Do not expose LAICA water filter to direct sunlight. Keep your water filter away from heating elements.
7) Use only cold water (+4°C : +30°C).
8) Filter only water. Do not filter any other type of liquid.
9) It is recommended to use the filtered water within 48 hours of filtration.
10)Use only Laica cartridges for your protection.
IMPORTANT TIPS
1) People affected by specific diseases, allergies or following controlled diets should refer to a doctor
before using the water filter jugs by LAICA.
2) Do not break the cartridge for any reason whatsoever.
3) Stop the use of filter jug when emergency situations are signaled by the competent authorities.
Then, contact the manager of the water supply for more information.
4) The filtering cartridge by Laica assures an effective bacteriostatic protection thanks to the silver presence.
Any silver release complies with the guidelines set forth by the World Health Organization (WHO) and complies
with the parameters of the European Directive 98/38/EC concerning the quality of water for human consumption.
5) Laica filtration system preserves the natural balance of mineral salts of calcium and magnesium present in
tap water. The overall average hardness (sum of the elements calcium and magnesium) of the filtered water,
during the entire life cycle of the cartridge, does not undergo substantial variations with respect to the hardness
of the water before filtration.
6) Laica filtration system keeps the PH within the range of values set forth by the European Directive
98/83/EC, concerning the quality of water for human consumption.
7) The filtration system may slightly increase the content of sodium with regard to water before treatment. Should
this change occur, it is in any case very small and the final value is remarkably lower than the maximum value
for this parameter.
8) The filtration system can slightly vary the hardness of water before treatment.
9) Laica invites you to carry out a preventive assessment of local tap water in order to use the filtration system
in conscious manner.
10) Laica filtration system does not release potassium.
11) Laica filtration system does not release ammonium.
12) Laica filtration system does not release bisphenol A
13) Laica filtration system does not release epichlorohydrin, polyvinyl chloride, acrylamide.
