Figure 3: 5-Stage Filtration Process

The filtration system consists of three main filters:

1. PAC (Pre-Activated Carbon) Filter: A 2-in-1 pre-filter that removes larger particles like sand and rust, as well as chlorine and odors.
2. RO (Reverse Osmosis) Membrane Filter: Contains ultra-fine pores to retain the smallest contaminants in the water.
3. CF (Carbon Block) Post-Filter: A 2-in-1 post-filter that refines the water with valuable minerals (calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium) and balances the pH value for a fresh taste.

4. Setup and Initial Use

4.1 Unpacking

• Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
• Check for any damage during transit. If damaged, do not use and contact customer support.
• Remove all protective films and packaging materials.
