Using the Katadyn Hiker Pro Water Filter is simple. First, connect it to your water source, like a lake or river. You can use the quick - connect fittings to attach it to a water bottle or a hydration pack reservoir. Once connected, start pumping. You'll see the water flow through the transparent housing as it gets filtered. In just a minute, you'll have a litre of clean, fresh water. When you're out in the field and the water is murky, make sure to clean the filter protector regularly. It's easy to do, and this will ensure you always have access to safe water. As for maintenance, keep an eye on the see - through housing. When you notice that the filtering process is slowing down or the water isn't flowing as well, it might be time for some upkeep.

Always carry the prefilter, active carbon granulate, and the carry bag with you. The carry bag is great for keeping all the parts together and protecting them. And that's it! With this filter, you're all set for your outdoor adventures.
