Setup and First Use
Follow these steps for proper installation and initial preparation of your Aqua Select water filter cartridge:
- Unpack the Cartridge: Remove the new filter cartridge from its protective packaging.
- Soak the Cartridge: Submerge the new filter cartridge completely in cold water for approximately 10-15 minutes. This helps to remove any air bubbles and activate the filter material.
- Insert into System: Place the soaked cartridge firmly into the designated slot of your compatible water filter jug or system. Ensure it is seated correctly to prevent unfiltered water from bypassing the filter.
- Flush the Filter: Fill the water filter system with tap water. Discard the first two full filtrations of water. This flushes out any loose carbon particles and prepares the filter for optimal performance.
- Ready for Use: Your Aqua Select water filter cartridge is now ready for use.

Operating Instructions
Once installed, the Aqua Select filter cartridge operates automatically as water passes through it. Simply fill your water filter system with tap water, and the cartridge will filter it as it flows into the lower reservoir.
- Filtration Capacity: Each cartridge is designed to filter up to 150 liters of water.
- Replacement Frequency: For optimal performance and hygiene, it is recommended to replace the filter cartridge every 4 weeks, regardless of the amount of water filtered. This ensures consistent water quality and prevents bacterial growth.
Maintenance
The filter cartridges themselves are disposable and do not require maintenance. However, regular cleaning of your water filter jug or system is essential to maintain hygiene and prevent contamination.
- Clean the Jug/System: Wash your water filter jug or system regularly with mild detergent and warm water. Rinse thoroughly.
- Storage: Store unused Aqua Select filter cartridges in their original, sealed packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Slow filtration rate. | Air bubbles trapped in the cartridge, or cartridge nearing end of life. | Remove cartridge, re-soak in cold water for 10-15 minutes, then reinsert. If problem persists, replace the cartridge. |
| Water taste not improved or has an unusual taste. | Cartridge not properly flushed, or cartridge has reached its capacity. | Ensure the first two filtrations were discarded. If so, the cartridge may need replacement. |
| Small granules visible in filtered water. | Loose carbon particles from the filter. | This is usually harmless and common during the first few filtrations. Ensure the initial flushing steps were followed. If it persists after several filtrations, the cartridge may be faulty and should be replaced. |
