intake temperature range stated in Chapter 9. No microbiologically impaired water or water of
unknown quality may be used without appropriate disinfection.
• If there are official instructions to boil tap water, the filter system must be decommissioned.
When the requirement to boil water comes to an end, the filter cartridge must be replaced and
the connections cleaned.
• This fi lter media has been impregnated with silver to preserve the fi lter media and inhibit the
growth of bacteria that may affect the fi lter media. The antimicrobial properties of the treated
fi lter media do not protect users or others against bacteria, viruses, germs, or other disease
organisms.
• It is generally recommended to boil tap water for certain groups of people (e.g. people with
weakened immune systems, babies). This also applies to filtered water.
• Note for people with kidney disease or dialysis patients: during the filter process, the potassium
content may be increased slightly. If you suffer from kidney disease and/or have to stick to a
special potassium diet, we recommend you consult your doctor beforehand.
• MAVEA recommends not to decommission the fi lter system for long periods. If the MAVEA
PURITY C fi lter system is not used for several days, we recommend that the fi lter system be
