How do I install my Brita Elite™ Filter?

  1. Wash your hands, then remove the filter from the bag.
  2. Hand-wash your pitcher system periodically with a mild dish soap (no abrasive cleaners). Rinse well. Do not wash in the dishwasher.
  3. Insert the filter into the reservoir by lining up the groove in the filter with the notch in the reservoir. Press firmly for a tight seal. Fill the reservoir with cold tap water. Discard your first three pitchers of filtered water or use them to water plants.
  4. Set up your pitcher’s electronic filter indicator following the enclosed instructions for a blue Elite™ Filter.
