Wash the lid, upper and lower chambers, the tap and the hole plugs. Be sure to rinse everything properly and place all the parts on a flat surface on the countertop so they don’t roll onto the floor.

Step 2: Assemble Your Filteroo Stainless Steel Water Filter
The first step is to install the stainless steel tap into the bottom tank.
- Insert the tap through the hole in the side of the water filter ensuring you have 1 x rubber washer & 1 x steel washer on each side of the bottom tank to create the seal. Then tighten the nut with a spanner on the inside.
- Put the black rubber ring on the base of the bottom tank.
- Set the bottom tank on the stand.
- Insert the blocking plugs into the spare cartridge holes in the top tank.
Step 3: Prime & Flush your cartridges
All Carbon & Fluoride reduction cartridges MUST be PRIMED or FLUSHED as per the written instructions supplied with each cartridge before use.- Simply prime the carbon cartridge as per the priming instructions supplied inside the carbon cartridge box.
- Flush the Fluoride cartridge as per the fluoride flushing 1 x pager supplied with the Fluoride reduction cartridge.
Step 4: Install Your Cartridges
- Remove the wingnut on your Filteroo Rain & City Water Gravity Carbon Block Filter Cartridges
- Insert the cartridges through the hole in the top tank from the inside out ensuring there is 1 x washer on the cartridge thread which sits inside the top tank.
- Screw on the wingnut until firm on the underside of the top tank, do not over-tighten.

How to Install Filteroo® MAX Fluoride Removal Gravity Water Filter Cartridge
- Remove the plastic wrapping whilst keeping the cartridge clean. (Wash the cartridge outside if required before removing the thread end caps)
- Remove the end caps from each end of the cartridge.
- Sit the rubber flushing washer over the hole on 1 end of the cartridge. Hold the cartridge and washer as you press it up against the tap spout to get a good seal. Gently turn on the cold water and allow the water to flow into the cartridge & then out the other end to flush the fine particles out of the cartridge. Flush continuously for 1 minute.
- Turn the cartridge around and repeat above. Flush for a further 1 minute & ensure that the water flows clear. Repeat this process for all the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges you intend to install.
- Once the cartridge is flushed, lift the top tank off your Filteroo® Steel bottom tank & sit the top tank upside down on the bench top. The Filteroo® MAX Fluoride Removal cartridge screws directly onto the exposed carbon cartridge threaded stem already installed. (Note - Only 1 end of the cartridge has a thread). The cartridge MUST be installed by the threaded end. Screw on the cartridge gently ensuring you do not cross the thread. Tighten until firm. Do not over-tighten.
- Once the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges have been installed, place the top tank back onto the bottom tank. The fluoride cartridges hang down inside the bottom tank. Now fill the top tank with water and allow that water to filter down through both the Filteroo® carbon cartridge & the Filteroo® MAX fluoride removal cartridges.
- Once the top tank water has emptied into the bottom tank. Discharge that water to waste or onto the garden.
- Then rinse the mineral pad under flowing water for a few seconds to rinse & remove any fine particles. Place the mineral pad onto the base of the bottom tank and your water filter is now ready to be refilled & used.
Step 5: Put it all together
- Put the top tank on top of the bottom tank.
- Install the knob on the lid. Using a screwdriver, tighten the screw holding the lid knob into position
- Fill the top tank with water & allow that water to filter down through the cartridges into the bottom tank. Drain the bottom tank of water to waste for the garden. Flow at least 12 litres of water through the cartridges to flush.
- Rinse the mineral pad under the kitchen sink tap for 10 seconds to wash any loose mineral fines and place it onto the base inside the bottom tank.
Your Filteroo is now ready to use.
