Getting Started
Before using your bottle for the first time:
1. Rinse the Filter
2. Fill and Drink
- Fill the bottle with tap water, river water, or well water.
- Squeeze the bottle with both hands to begin filtration, then release to allow air to enter into the bottle.
- Water is filtered in real time as you drink.
Daily Use & Care
- Bottle: Hand wash with mild soap and warm water. DO NOT place in dishwasher.
- Cap & Spout: Use a soft brush to clean around drinking areas.
- Filter: DO NOT wash with soap or detergent.
If flow slows down, rinse the outside of the filter with clean water to remove fine particle buildup on the surface of the filter.
NEVER boil, freeze, or microwave the filter.
Filter Replacement Guide
When to replace the filter:
- After filtering approximately 380 liters (100 gallons)
- When water flow becomes noticeably slow, indicating clogging
- If using water with high sediment, replace sooner for best results
ÖKO Level-2 replacement filters are available on our website. Always use authentic ÖKO filters to maintain filtration quality.
