How to Reset Brita Filter Indicator Pitcher
Are you tired of constantly checking the filter indicator on your Brita pitcher, only to find it hasn’t reset properly? Resetting the filter indicator is an essential step to ensure that your water is always filtered and safe to drink. In this article, we will guide you through the process of resetting your Brita filter indicator pitcher step by step.
Step 1: Locate the Filter Indicator
First, you need to locate the filter indicator on your Brita pitcher. The indicator is usually a small digital display or a color-coded strip on the pitcher. If you have a digital display, it will show the remaining filter life in days. If you have a color-coded strip, it will indicate the filter status with different colors.
Step 2: Turn Off the Power Supply
Before you start resetting the filter indicator, make sure to turn off the power supply to the pitcher. This will prevent any accidental changes to the settings during the process. If your pitcher is battery-operated, remove the batteries. If it’s plugged into an outlet, unplug it.
Step 3: Reset the Filter Indicator
Now that the power supply is off, you can proceed to reset the filter indicator. Here’s how to do it:
– For a digital display: Press and hold the reset button for about 5 seconds. The display will show “0” or “RESET,” indicating that the filter indicator has been reset.
– For a color-coded strip: Locate the reset button on the pitcher. Press and hold the button for about 5 seconds until the color strip changes to the initial color, indicating that the filter indicator has been reset.
Step 4: Turn On the Power Supply
After resetting the filter indicator, turn on the power supply to the pitcher. If it’s battery-operated, insert the batteries. If it’s plugged into an outlet, plug it back in.
Step 5: Test the Filter Indicator
To ensure that the filter indicator has been reset successfully, pour some water into the pitcher and check the indicator. It should now show the correct remaining filter life or the initial color, depending on your pitcher model.
Conclusion
Resetting the filter indicator on your Brita pitcher is a simple and straightforward process. By following these steps, you can ensure that your water is always filtered and safe to drink. Remember to reset the filter indicator regularly to maintain the optimal performance of your pitcher.
