- Remove your zazen Multi-Stage Filter Cartridge (which has O-Ring fitted) from packaging and protective wrap and prepare as follows:
- Fill a 2 litre jug or similar with clean cold water
- Submerge the Multi-Stage Filter Cartridge fully for 1 minute or until the air bubbles have stopped coming out of the filter.
- Take the filter out of the jug and hold over the sink.
- Pour about 2.5 litres of clean cold water slowly through the top of the filter. Make sure the water starts to run out the bottom. Knock the filter firmly against your hand several times during this rinse cycle to help clear any air bubbles, then continue to pour water through the filter.
- Remove your old Multi-Stage Filter Cartridge from the Cartridge Connector by unscrewing and place in your rubbish bin (do not recycle your old filter as toxins are trapped in the filter media).
- Screw your new Multi-Stage Filter Cartridge with O-Ring into the Cartridge Connector and place back into your system.

Cleaning a zazen Ceramic Filter
It’s best to clean your Ceramic Filter on a weekly basis, or as required depending on your water quality. Just very gently rub it clean with a soft cloth under cold running water to remove any orange/black/slimy residue that may have built up. You can use lemon juice or vinegar if you wish to whiten it – but NO detergents please.
