Shut off the unit's water supply and open the faucet to relieve pressure.
Unscrew the fittings and remove the used filter from its clip.
Wrap the fitting threads with PTFE tape and fit them to the new filter, observing the flow direction (IN → OUT).
Slowly reopen the water supply and check the connections for leaks.
On first use, run the faucet for a few minutes until the water runs clear.

The filter is disposable and cannot be opened or washed. Replace it when the label capacity is reached or every 12 months at the latest. Do not use with microbiologically unsafe water or water of unknown quality without disinfection.
