2. Stage 2- Ion-Exchange Resin Filter Filters limescale and metals
3. Stage 3- Activated Carbon Filter Filters Pesticides and Chlorine
4. Stage 4- Post Filter Filters fine particles

4-stage fast flow filtration tested and/or certified to remove/reduce microplastics, floating particles/sediment, pesticides, chlorine, limescale & heavy metals. For more information, visit Breville.com  
No Plumber Required
The unit 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 Aqua Station™ 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 maybe 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 unit even if water is still in the tank. This prevents the water from leaking when removed from the dispensing unit. Be mindful however that there may be some residual water droplets when removed from the base of the unit
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. Empty regularly to avoid overspill.
*BPA Free Materials
All parts that come into direct contact with water are made of BPA Free materials Beeville 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 unit 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 unit 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 unit 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 unit.

• 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 unit, 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 unit for the first time. Before first use, it is recommended to carry out the below steps without the Activ360™ Water Filter in place.

1. Fit only the larger lower (filtered) water tank into place on the base of the unit with the lid removed.

2. Fill the lower tank with cold tap water to the MAX level. Never fill past the MAX level.

3. Place a 1L container under the dispensing spout.

4. 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.

5. Repeat steps 3-5 until all the water in the lower tank has been dispensed. The unit will stop dispensing automatically when the water level is too low or automatically after
   60 seconds.

6. 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.
3 beeps will sound and the water droplet light will flash continuously in red.

1. Lift the water tank from the unit remove the lid and set aside. Lifting by the ring, remove the filter cartridge from the filter holder and discard any remaining water inside the water tanks, then separate the upper tank from the lower tank.

2. Remove the new filter cartridge from its packaging
   NOTE
   It is normal for the filter to appear moist when removed from its wrapping. This is condensation from the hygienic steam sterilisation process.

3. Immerse the filter in a bowl of tap water and gently shake until there are no air bubbles. Soak filter in the tap water for 10 minutes.

4. Once soaked, insert the filter into the filter holder of the upper tank and push down firmly to secure in place.
   NOTE
   Make sure the filter is tightly fitted. If the filter is not pressed in tightly, unfiltered tap water may flow around the filter into the lower water tank, or the filter may float up.

5. Place the upper tank into the lower water tank.

6. To flush and activate the new filter cartridge, add 1L of water to the upper water tank, allowing the water to filter through. Remove the water tanks and discard the collected water. Repeat this step once more so the filter is fully flushed with 2L of water before use.

7. Once flushed, fill the water tank with tap water up to the MAX line.

8. Press and hold the START/STOP button for 3 seconds; the unit will beep once and the water droplet light will stop flashing. The filter reset has now been completed.

NOTE
When preparing the Activ360™ filter for the first time use of your Aqua Station™, there is no need to action step 8 for filter reset; once the filter is installed, the unit will automatically begin the filter life counter.
IMPORTANT

• A dirty filter may reduce the performance of the unit.
• The filter is not washable.
•  Use only the original Beeville filter specifically intended for use with the Aqua Station.
• 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 unit 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 unit to operate less effectively and/ or may cause damage to the unit.
• 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
