Important information:
•
Always store spare water filter cartridges sealed in the original packaging in a cool dry
place.
•
The BRITA INTENZA water filter cartridge is designed for use only with municipally
treated tap water (note: this water is constantly controlled and is safe to drink
according to legal regulations) or with water from private supplies which has been
approved as safe to drink. If an instruction is received from the authorities that
mains water must be boiled, the BRITA filtered water must also be boiled. When the
instruction to boil water is no longer in force, the entire tea machine must be cleaned
and a new cartridge inserted.
•
Only filter cold water.
•
Clean the water tank regularly.
•
Should your tea machine require descaling, always remove the BRITA INTENZA water
filter cartridge from the water tank. Then clean the whole water tank and reinsert the
water filter cartridge.
•
For certain groups of people (e.g. those with impaired immunity), it is generally
recommended that tap water should be boiled; this also applies to filtered water.
Irrespective of the water used, you should use stainless steel utensils. This product
meets these requirements. In particular, people who are sensitive to nickel should use
appliances with elements made of stainless steel.
•
For reasons of hygiene, the cartridge is given a special treatment with silver. A small
amount of silver, which poses no known threat to health, may be transferred to
the water. This transference would be within the World Health Organisation (WHO)
guidelines.
•
During the filtering process, there may be a slight increase in potassium content.
However, one litre of BRITA filtered water contains less potassium than e.g. an apple. If
you have kidney disease and/or follow a potassium-restricted diet, we recommend that
you consult your doctor before using a BRITA water filter. Or call BRITACare Customer
