Product Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! Our reverse osmosis under-the-sink water Filtration systems are with high Filtration Flow rate and tankless design, which ensure every drop of water is freshly Filtered and save space.
The reverse osmosis membrane has a deep Filtration level down to 0.0001 micron, which effectively removes viruses, bacteria, heavy metals, pesticides, water hardness, volatile organic compounds, chlorine, and more, giving you great tasting water.* Read this user manual carefully before you use the appliance. Save it for future reference.

Note:
The water supplied by reverse osmosis systems has low mineral content. The mineral salts required by the human body are provided by food and to a lesser extent by the water we drink.

  • The substances removed or reduced by this system are not necessarily in all user’s water

Filter lifetime

Note
For the best performance, please change your filter cartridge according to the filter lifetime indicator, or the filter replacement cycle suggested below. When a significantly lower flow rate is observed, we recommend changing the filters as well.
This system can only work with Philips filters.

Filter Model code Filter lifetime
PC 4-in-1 filter AUT728 12-24 months*
RO filter AUT780 36-60 months*
  • The actual lifetime of the filter cartridge depends on the local tap water quality and daily usage. The recommended replacement cycle is an average based on different local tap water quality. If the local tap water quality is below the average, the actual lifetime of
    the cartridge would differ from the recommended replacement cycle. If the filter cartridge is blocked, please replace it.

Filter cartridge replacement

a. Turn off the power and water supply before replacing the fi1lter cartridges.
b. Remove the front cover.
c. Turn the filter that needs to be replaced anticlockwise and pull it out.
