housing, make sure the housing O-ring is in place. Turn housing

counter-clockwise to close. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

2. Slowly turn on water supply.

3. Check entire system for leaks. If leaking, shut off water supply and

tighten or reseal fittings.

4. After installation, flush the cartridge for 5 minutes, wait one hour,

then flush again for 5 minutes before using the water.

FILTER CARTRIDGE REPLACEMENT

You should change your filter cartridge when the water flow is

noticeably reduced or at least every 6 to 12 months.

1. Turn off water to the filter. Water must be shut off from Valve A

and Valve C if they are installed. See Fig.1A, 2A, and 3A, Page 3.

2. Turn on the faucet nearest to the filter housing to release pressure.

3. Unscrew the filter canister and discard used cartridge. Wash the

filter canister with mild soap and water. Do not use harsh cleaners

or hot water.

4. Inspect the filter canister O ring. Make sure it is lightly lubricated

and completely seated in the groove. It is recommended that you

replace the O ring when you replace the filter.

5. Place a new filter cartridge into the canister, make sure it is

centered and completely seated on the bottom seal.

6. Reinstall the canister to its cap. Hand tightening is all that is

required to seal the unit. You can use a wrench to slightly give the

canister an additionl 1/2 turn, but DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.

7. Slowly turn on water to the filter by using the upstream shut-off

valve (if there is one).

8. After installation, flush the cartridge for 5 minutes, wait one hour,

then flush again for 5 minutes before using the water.
