No Plumber Required
The water purifier will start to work as soon as assembled, water is added and
connected to a power source; then simply press to dispense filtered water. No
need to plumb into mains water.
Filter Life Counter
The AquaStation™ water purifier reminds you to replace the filter every 90
days or approximately 200L of water*, whichever comes first, to ensure the
best filtration performance.
You may choose to change your filter more frequently in areas with poor water
quality.
Filter Replacement Alert
The filter replacement alert will indicate when it is time to change the
filter. Once the filter is replaced, reset the filter time to start the filter
life countdown.
*The filter replacement alert is set at 90 days or approximately 200L of water, whichever comes first, with performance based on typical municipal drinking water quality, however, water quality may vary considerably from one area to the next which may affect the life of the water filter and more frequent replacement may be required.
Water Level Sensor
The water tank is equipped with a floating sensor which will automatically
stop dispensing when the water level becomes too low and the Fill Tank
indicator will illuminate.
NOTE
Take care when removing the water tank from the base after use as residual
water may drip.
One-way Water Tank Valve
The water tank has been designed with a one-way valve so that it can be
removed from the purifier even if water is still in the tank.
Be mindful however that there may be some residual water droplets when removed
from the base of the purifier.
Removable & Magnetic Drip Tray
The drip tray can easily be removed to accommodate different sizes of cups and
bottles. The magnetic edge helps to keep the tray in place.
*BPA Free Materials*
All parts that come into direct contact with water are made of BPA Free
materials
- Breville makes its BPA Free claim for this product based on independent laboratory testing performed for all the food contact plastic materials of the product per EU Commission regulation No 10/2011. BPA Free Material is used in all parts that come into contact with food.
WATER QUALITY
As far as contained in tap water, the contaminants or other substances reduced
by the Activ360 water filter are not necessarily in all users’ water. Tap
water may contain impurities and heavy metals such as lead, copper, chlorine,
limescale, pesticides and other contaminants like microplastics which all lead
to impaired taste.
⚠ CAUTION
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or with water of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. This
product should only be used with water that has been adequately chlorinated or
disinfected. For use with municipal cold water only.
Assembly
BEFORE FIRST USE
- Remove and safely discard any packaging material or promotional labels attached to your water purifier and filter. Check for any missing or damaged parts as per the components list.
NOTE
As an important part of our quality control process, your water purifier has
been individually tested. As a result, you may notice a small amount of
condensation or water droplets on the inside of the water tank. There is no
need for concern. Please remove and discard the red silicone rubber cap off
the spout before use.
- Remove the Actve360™ 4-Stage filter from the water tank and set aside.
- Do not wash the filter or insert into the upper water tank until ‘Flushing the Breville AquaStation’ and ‘Preparing the 4-Stage Filter’ instructions are completed as found in this book.
- Place the water purifier on a dry, flat level surface.
- Wash the water tank lid, upper (pre-filtered) water tank, lower (filtered) water tank in warm soapy water with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth and return to the purifier.
- Assemble the water tank back on to the power base.
- Plug the power plug into a 230/240V power outlet and turn on the power outlet.
⚠ IMPORTANT
When moving the water purifier, always lift from the base using two hands and
set down gently on a flat and level surface.
FLUSHING THE BREVILLE AQUASTATION
It is important to flush and rinse the dispensing system before using the water purifier for the first time. Before first use, it is recommended to carry out the below steps without the Activ360™ Water Filter in place.
- Fit only the larger lower (filtered) water tank into place on the base of the purifier with the lid removed.
- Fill the lower tank with cold tap water to the MAX level. Never fill past the MAX level.
- Place a 1L container under the dispensing spout.
- Press the START/STOP button once to start dispensing water until the container is full, then press the START/STOP button again to stop dispensing. Discard the collected water.
- Repeat steps 3-5 until all the water in the lower tank has been dispensed. The water purifier will stop dispensing automatically when the water level is too low or automatically after 60 seconds.
- Proceed to the next step, ‘Preparing the Activ360™ Filter’.
PREPARING THE ACTIV360™ FILTER
Flushing the filter is required every time you insert a new filter cartridge.
The filter replacement alert will notify after 90 days or 200L of water filtered that it is time to replace the filter cartridge.
NOTE
When preparing the Activ360™ filter for the first time use of your
AquaStation™, there is no need to action step 8 for filter reset; once the
filter is installed, the purifier will automatically begin the filter life
counter.
- A dirty filter may reduce the performance of the water purifier.
- The filter is not washable.
- Use only the original Breville filter specifically intended for use with the AquaStation water purifiers.
- Filter replacement alert is set to 90 days or approximately 200L of water, whichever comes first, however, for higher-than-normal consumption or poor water quality, more frequent changing may be required. If you need to change your filter before the filter replacement alert activates at 90 days or approximately 200L, press and hold the START/STOP button for 3 seconds to enter filter reset mode, water droplet light will flash in RED, then press the START/STOP button once to reset the filter once you have changed the filter cartridge.
NOTE
To exit filter reset mode without resetting the filter, press and hold the
START/STOP button once again for 3 seconds.
- The purifier will beep once and the water droplet LED light will stop flashing. The filter reset has now been completed.
- Water quality varies considerably from one area to the next and has an effect on the life of the water filter cartridge. For optimum performance, the filter change alert will activate after 90 days.
NOTE
- No filter or an incorrectly fitted filter may cause the water purifier to operate less effectively and/or may cause damage to the water purifier.
- The filter must be fitted in the filter holder with the pull ring facing upwards.
- From time to time, small floating black particles may escape from the filter into the water. This is a natural carbon fibre which is food grade safe and not harmful to health.
NOTE
For replacement water filters, visit Breville.com or contact Breville Customer Service.
Operation
OPERATING YOUR AQUASTATION PURIFIER
- Ensure the upper pre-filtered water tank is assembled inside the lower filtered water tank, and that the water filter cartridge is correctly fitted into position.
- Plug into a 230/240V power outlet.
- Remove the water tanks from the purifier and fill the pre-filtered water tank with cold tap water to the MAX level. Alternatively, pour water into the tanks using a water jug. Never fill past the MAX level.
- Once water has filtered into the filtered water tank, the pre-filtered water tank can be topped up until both water tanks are filled to the MAX level.
- With the now filled water tanks assembled to the purifier base, place a cup of choice onto the drip tray, or alternatively, remove the drip tray to accommodate large glasses.
- Press the START/STOP button once to dispense water. Press START/STOP again to stop water dispensing.
NOTE
If the START/STOP button is not pressed a second time to stop dispensing
water, the unit will automatically stop dispensing water after 60 seconds.
NOTE
Always ensure the water tanks are filled to the MAX level for optimum flow of
water from the spout. Never allow the water tanks to fall below the MIN level.
The water sensor will automatically stop dispensing and the Fill Tank
indicator will illuminate when the water level becomes too low. Regularly
check and discard any water that might accumulate in the drip tray.
TURNING OFF THE MACHINE
Turn off at the power outlet.
NOTE
Discard any filtered water that has been left sitting for several days or
more. This will ensure you have cleaner, great-tasting water.
If your filter has been unused for a long period of time, it is recommended to recook the filter for 10 minutes before use and clean the water tanks as per the cleaning instructions found in this book.
Ambient water temperature will vary. The temperature dispensed will be influenced by the external factors surrounding the purifier itself. An increase in the air temperature will cause water tank temperature to increase as well.
If the water temperature in the tank becomes too warm, discard and replace with cold tap water. Water temperature in the tank should not be dispensed if above 40°C.
