Installation Instructions

7 Installing the water filter*
The water filter guarantees optimal water quality and
should be installed the first time you use the appliance.
Alternatively, the appliance can also be operated without
the water filter.
Flow rate 0.5 gpm (1.89 lpm)
Water connection potable
Water pressure 40 psi - 90 psi ( 2.8 bar - 6.2 bar/ 0.28 MPa
- 0.62 MPa )
Water temperature 33 °F - 100 °F ( 0.6 °C - 37 °C )
Capacity 300 gal. (1135 l)
WARNING
Consuming contaminants can be harmful to your health!
u
If there is a chance the water may contain harmful
bacteria or if the water quality is unknown, do not use
this system without appropriate disinfection measures
upstream or downstream of the system.
NOTICE
Leakage water may damage the system!
u
Do not install this system on hot water lines. The
maximum operating temperature of the water in this
system is 100 °F (37.7 °C).
u
This system MUST be installed and used in compli-
ance with federal and local installation regulations.
u
Do not install under water hammer conditions. A water
hammer arrestor must be used to prevent water
hammering. If you are unsure how to check these
conditions, consult a professional installer.
u
Do not install with a water pressure greater than 90 psi
(6.2 bar). If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi, install
a pressure limiting valve. If you are unsure how to
check the water pressure, consult a professional
installer.
u
Protect against frost; if temperatures below 33 °F
(0.6 °C) are expected, remove the filter.
u
When used as indicated, the disposable filter
cartridges must be replaced every 6 months or when-
ever you notice a considerable decrease in the flow
rate.
Make sure that the following conditions are
fulfilled:
q
The hoses have been positioned such
that they can now be connected to the
filter.
q
The installation position has been
selected according to the instructions
(see 3.3) .
q
The connectors have been removed
from the hose ends.
u
Hoses have been shortened, if neces-
sary (cut at 90° angle to the direction of
the hose).
When doing so, make sure the hoses do not become
kinked and the cross-section of the hose remains round.
u
On the thin hose, measure the inser-
tion depth (E) of 21/32 '' (17 mm) and
mark it.
u
On the thick hose, measure the
insertion depth (E) of 25/32 ''
(20 mm) and mark it.
u
Insert the hoses Fig. 37 (1) all
the way into the water filter
module (i.e., up the the mark
you made), past the point of
resistance.

Note
u
If you need to disassemble the unit: Push back the dark
grey ring on the connector and hold it in this position.
While still holding the ring back, briefly push the hose
into the connector, then pull it out.
u
Pull the tray
Fig. 38 (4) out until it
catches.
u
Secure the module
with 4 screws
Fig. 38 (5) through
the recesses in the
front and directly
through the module
in the back.
