4. Configuración

Siga estos pasos para el montaje y preparación inicial:

4.1. Preparar los filtros

1. Remove the filter cartridges from their packaging.
2. Priming the Filters: Hold each filter under a slow stream of cold water, allowing water to flow through the ceramic shell and out of the stem. Gently scrub the entire surface of the ceramic with the provided cleaning sponge or a soft brush to remove any manufacturing dust. Continue for several minutes until the entire surface is wet and no air bubbles are seen. This process is crucial for optimal flow rate.
3. Ensure the black washer is securely attached to the threaded stem of each filter.

4.2. Assemble the Faucet

1. Insert the faucet stem through the hole in the lower chamber from the outside.
2. Place one faucet gasket onto the stem from the inside of the chamber.
3. Thread one milky white sealing ring onto the stem, followed by the second faucet gasket.
4. Securely tighten the nut onto the stem using the provided wrench, ensuring the faucet is facing downwards and is leak-proof. Do not overtighten.

4.3. Install Filters into Upper Chamber

1. Place the upper chamber onto a stable surface.
2. Insert the threaded stems of the primed filters into the holes at the bottom of the upper chamber.
3. From inside the upper chamber, secure each filter with a wing nut onto its threaded stem. Hand-tighten firmly to create a seal, but do not overtighten.

4.4. Asamblea Final

1. Place the stainless steel stand on a flat, stable surface. Attach the rubber foot pads to the bottom of the stand legs for stability.
2. Carefully place the lower chamber (with faucet installed) onto the stand.
3. Position the upper chamber (with filters installed) on top of the lower chamber, ensuring the filter stems are suspended within the lower chamber.
4. Place the lid on the upper chamber.

5. Instrucciones de funcionamiento

5.1. Uso inicial

1. Fill the upper chamber with untreated water.
2. Allow the water to filter through to the lower chamber. The initial filtration may be slow.
3. Discard the first two full batches of filtered water to flush out any residual manufacturing dust from the filters.
4. Your VEVOR Gravity-fed Water Filter System is now ready for regular use.

5.2. Operación diaria

• Pour untreated water into the upper chamber. The system uses gravity, so no electricity is required.
• The water will slowly pass through the ceramic carbon filters into the lower chamber.
• Dispense filtered water from the faucet as needed.
• Refill the upper chamber as it empties to ensure a continuous supply of filtered water.

6. Mantenimiento

6.1. Limpieza de filtros

If the flow rate slows significantly, it indicates that the pores of the ceramic filters may be clogged with sediment. Clean the filters as follows:

1. Remove the upper chamber and carefully detach the filters by unscrewing the wing nuts.
2. Under a slow stream of cold water, gently scrub the entire surface of the ceramic filter with the provided cleaning sponge or a soft, non-abrasive brush. Do not use soap or detergents.
3. Scrub until the ceramic surface appears clean and free of discoloration.
4. Reinstall the filters and resume use.

6.2. Reemplazo del filtro

Image: A pair of filters can purify up to 6,000 gallons of water.

The ceramic carbon filters have a lifespan of up to 6,000 gallons per pair, depending on water quality and usage. Replace filters when:

• The flow rate becomes consistently slow even after cleaning.
• The taste or odor of the filtered water deteriorates.
• The ceramic element shows signs of significant wear or damage.

Replacement filters can be purchased from authorized VEVOR retailers or the official VEVOR websitio.

6.3. Limpieza del sistema

Periodically clean the stainless steel chambers and faucet with warm water and a mild dish soap. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue. Ensure the system is completely dry before reassembly or storage.
