FAQs
How often should I change the filter?
The Smart Light indicator will blink red when the filter reaches the end of its lifespan, typically after 4 weeks of use or 150 liters of filtration.
Can I put the glass jug in the dishwasher?
Yes, the glass carafe is dishwasher-safe, but the lid and the indicator should be washed by hand.
Does it fit in a standard fridge?
The 2.5L size is designed to fit conveniently in most standard refrigerator doors.
Is the glass fragile?
It is made of durable borosilicate glass, which is more resistant to thermal shock than standard glass, though it should still be handled with care.
Are the filters recyclable?
Yes, Brita offers a recycling program for their used filter cartridges. Check your local retailer or the Brita website for drop-off locations.
Troubleshooting
Slow filtration rate
Air bubbles may be trapped in the filter. Submerge and gently shake the filter in water before re-inserting.
Black particles in water
These are small pieces of activated carbon from the filter. This is harmless; simply rinse the filter thoroughly and discard the first two fillings.
Smart Light indicator not working
Ensure the indicator is properly seated in the lid. If it fails to flash, the battery may have reached the end of its life.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Brita jug, first wash the glass carafe with warm soapy water. Soak the new Maxtra Pro filter in water for a few minutes to remove trapped air bubbles, then insert it firmly into the funnel until you hear a click. For the initial use, discard the first two batches of filtered water to ensure the filter is properly flushed.
- Compatibility: Only use genuine Brita Maxtra Pro filters to ensure optimal flow and filtration.
- Care: Periodically remove the silicone base to wash away any moisture trapped underneath. Always remove the electronic Smart Light indicator from the lid before putting the lid through the dishwasher.
