BRITA water filter with BRITA Meter
Always enjoy cleaner, clearer great tasting BRITA filtered water thanks to the intelligent BRITA Meter – exclusively developed for MAXTRA.

Water drops that recurrently flash from top to bottom indicate an actively processing filtration.
If the empty cartridge symbol “NEW” flashes, you should now exchange the MAXTRA cartridge.
