Your BRITA Tap, is the key to cleaner, clearer
great tasting fi ltered water
Next to hot and cold unfi ltered water,
your BRITA system offers many advantages
• You will have great tasting water at your fi ngertips
• It is economical, convenient and easy to use
• It is ideal for cooking healthy food
e.g. rice is fl uffy, naturally white and smells fantastic
your pasta will smell and taste fantastic when cooked with the
best natural ingredients and that includes fi ltered water
leaves your vegetables bursting with colour and fl avour
The BRITA Tap has two levers. One for BRITA fi ltered water and
the other for your regular unfi ltered hot/cold water.
The A 1000 fi lter 0.5 micron carbon block fi lter
cartridge signifi cantly reduces:
• Chlorine, unpleasant tastes and odours
• Small particles (such as rust, dust and sand)
• Organic impurities
Lifetime of the A 1000 fi lter cartridge
A 1000 fi lter cartridge life depends on local water quality.
For optimum performance and hygiene, it is recommended that
the fi lter cartridge be replaced at least six-monthly.
Your digital BRITA cartridge exchange indicator displays the
remaining number of days until the fi lter cartridge is to be replaced
and alerts you with an audible alarm after 180 days to change
the cartridge. You should check the digital display periodically. For
more information, see chapter 3.2.
I. Congratulations on your new BRITA Tap System
You are assured of BRITA quality and our commitment to our

3 Installation of the BRITA Tap System
!
Installation of the fi lter system must comply with the relevant
state or local plumbing regulations and standards (AS/NZS
3500). Depending on the necessary method of connection to
the cold water supply, additional valves/adaptors/components
may be required, and the services of a licensed plumber may
be necessary. If you do not have an available connection to the
cold water supply and it is necessary to cut into the cold water
supply line, a licensed plumber is required.
Before starting, please check that you have all the components as
listed above (see fi g. 1) as well as the recommended tools.
There are 7 steps to the installation.
!
Prior to installation, read the Technical Data (chapter 8) and
the Important Information (chapter 9). (After storage and
transport below 0°C, the product must be stored in the open
original packaging for at least 24 hours at the stated ambient
temperatures (chapter 8) for operation.) The system cannot
be installed with a low pressure boiler.
3.1 Step 1: Selecting appropriate setting on the
fi lter head
The fi lter head is set to the “++” setting by default. For use with
the supplied A 1000 fi lter cartridge you need to change the setting

tightening.
Then place the base (3) over the hole and fi x the BRITA Tap (1) in
position using the supplied counter plate (4), the washer (5), the
locking ring (6) and the hexagon nut (7).
3.4 Step 4: Attaching the hoses
!
The supplied hose for connection to the cold water supply
requires the availability of an already installed ½" isolation
or angle valve). Before installation, please ensure you have
such a free ½" isolation or angle valve and that it is work-
ing properly (closeable to 100 %). If not, please contact
a licensed plumber. In accordance with regulations, the
stopcock) which is included in your kit must be installed at
the point of connection to the water supply before the fi lter
system intake hose. Behind the stopcock or isolation valve
a pressure limited valve must always be installed to ensure
the right function of the cartridge. Plumbing tape should
be used on all threads in this sub-assembly and tested to
ensure there are no leaks.
We recommend that you fi rst arrange all parts you need in front of
you.
Recommended tools for installation: one Allen key and an adjust-
able spanner.
Recommended for installation of the wall mount bracket: two
screws (e.g. 5 mm in size suited to the mounting surface) and two
wall plugs (if necessary).
Please follow the diagram below (see fi g. 7) and perform the steps
in the right order.
A Connect supplied T-piece on your cold water supply
a) Insert one 1/2" washer into the female nut of the supplied
T-piece.
b) Connect this end of the t-piece to your cold water supply.
!
If you do have an additional free 1/2" cold water supply for
the BRITA Tap in your kitchen, you do not need to install the
supplied T-piece.
B Connect the hose with the blue stripe to one side of the T-piece
or free ½” cold water supply using washer supplied.
C Take the hose with two 1/2" connectors. Insert the 1/2" washers
into the respective female threads of the two hose ends. Con-
nect one end with the free side of the T-Piece.
D Now connect the other end to the fi lter head inlet. This is labelled
“IN” and marked with an arrow. Make sure that the washers are
seated correctly!
E Connect the 800 mm hose to the “OUT” (connection point on
fi lter head) which labelled with an out arrow.
F Connect the hose with the red stripe with your hot water supply
G Make sure all connections are tightened properly. Avoid over
tightening.

The max. tightening torque for the 1/2" connections may
not exceed 14 Nm! Only hose connections with wash-
ers may be used – hoses with conical screw connections
damage the connections of the fi lter head and invalidate
any warranty claims.
3.5 Step 5: Inserting the fi lter cartridge (see fi g. 9)

3.6 Step 6: Install fi lter-head wall-mount bracket
(see fi g. 10)
!
During assembly, note the installation dimensions, bending
radii of the hoses and dimensions of the accessories. The
system can be operated with the fi lter cartridge in either
vertical or horizontal positions. Using the mounting bracket,
it should be installed only vertically, with the “UP” arrow on
the bracket correctly positioned.
A Attach the space-saving wall mount bracket (1) in place using two
matching screws and use two wall plugs (not supplied), depend-
ing on the type of wall. Position it in an accessible place to allow
for 90° pivoting of the head for easy exchange of the fi lter.
B Engage the fi lter head (2) in the wall mount (1) using the notches

Cause: Water intake closed.
Troubleshooting: Open the water intake at the upstream shut-off
valve or by closing the locking handle (3) on the
fi lter head (2).
B No or low water fl ow in spite of open water intake
Cause: Mains pressure too low.
Troubleshooting: Check mains pressure. If the fault continues,
check the fi lter system and fi lter cartridge and
replace if necessary.
Cause: Filter head not mounted in direction of water
fl ow.
Troubleshooting: Dismantle fi lter head and install in direction of
water fl ow (chapter 3.4).
C Leak
Cause: Screwed connections not fi tted correctly.
Troubleshooting: Check mains pressure. Check all screwed
connections in accordance with chapter 3.4.
D Incorrect display or incorrect settings on the electronic
cartridge exchange indicator with display
Cause: Buttons pressed in wrong order or wrong
buttons pressed.
Troubleshooting: Press and hold the RESET button for 8 seconds.
For models WD 3030 and WD 3040 only
These models have an aerator with two integrated outlets. The
Inner one is for BRITA fi ltered water, the outer area for hot and cold
water. As with every tap aerator, there can be lime scale build up
in the outer area. Therefore it is recommended to clean the aerator
on a regular basis. For cleaning: Unscrew the cap on the end of the
dispenser’s neck. The aerator is connected to a silicon hose. Detach
it carefully and clean the aerator (e.g. with vinegar). After cleaning
connect the long, thin part on the back of the aerator carefully with
the silicon hose. Place the cap over the aerator and screw it tight.
Make sure that the washer in the cap is seated correctly. When
installed correctly there should not be any leaks whilst running hot,
cold or BRITA fi ltered water.
If you want to replace the aerator with a new one, you can order
it from BRITA. You can fi nd the contact details for your BRITA
customer service team next to your country code on the back of this
booklet.
