Setup

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Ensure you have the pitcher, lid, and one PUR Genuine Filter.

2. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, wash the pitcher and lid by hand with mild soap and water, or place them in the dishwasher. The pitcher components are dishwasher safe for hassle-free cleaning.

3. Prepare Filter: Remove the PUR filter from its packaging. Some filters may require a brief soak or rinse before installation; refer to the filter's individual packaging for specific instructions.

4. Install Filter: Firmly insert the filter into the designated opening in the pitcher's reservoir. Ensure it is seated securely to prevent unfiltered water from bypassing the filter.

5. First Fill and Flush: Fill the pitcher with tap water. Discard the first two full pitchers of filtered water, as this helps to prime the filter and remove any carbon dust. Subsequent fills will be ready for consumption.

Operating Instructions

1. Filling the Pitcher: Lift the easy-fill lid and pour tap water directly into the reservoir. The 7-cup capacity minimizes the need for frequent refills.

2. Filtering Water: Water will slowly pass through the filter into the main pitcher body. This process ensures thorough filtration.

3. Pouring Filtered Water: The stay-tight cover ensures that unfiltered water remains in the reservoir while you pour from the main pitcher. Simply tilt the pitcher to dispense filtered water.

Maintenance

1. Regular Cleaning: Wash the pitcher and lid regularly. All components are dishwasher safe for easy cleaning. For best results, place on the top rack of your dishwasher.

2. Filter Replacement: The Genuine PUR Pitcher Filter lasts up to 2 months or filters approximately 40 gallons of water, whichever comes first. For optimal performance and continued filtration, replace the filter as recommended.

   Some PUR pitchers feature a filter change light that alerts you when it's time to replace the filter. Pay attention to this indicator for timely replacement.
