Precautions and Usage Guidelines
WARNING: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
CAUTION: The filter must be protected against freezing.
Failure to do so may result in cracking of the filter and water leakage.
NOTE: Make certain that installation of this system complies with all state and
local laws and regulations.
FOR COLD WATER USE ONLY.
MAINTENANCE: Contact your area retailer for replacement cartridges and
pricing or call Culligan Customer Service at 800-634-1455 for the nearest
dealer. Change cartridge every 2500 gallons or approximately every 12 months.
Filter Installation Instructions
(For copper or plastic tubing)
NOTE: Shut off water supply when replacing filter.
1. Shut off water supply. Select a location for installation on 1/4" OD (outside
diameter) plastic or copper tubing. Filter requires at least three
inches behind appliance. See Fig 1.
NOTE: Leave at least a 5-foot coil of tubing between appliance side and
compression fittings. This will allow room to pull out the appliance for
changing the filter.
2. Wrap 6" of Teflon tape around the threads of both ends of fittings.
Screw fittings into the body of the filter until hand tight. Use a wrench to
tighten two additional turns. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. About one full thread
should remain visible.
3. Two types of compression nuts are included: One for copper tubing and one
for plastic tubing. Copper tubing uses nuts with metal grippers, while the
plastic tubing uses the nuts with plastic grippers. Refer to Fig. 2.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE NUTS. If nuts become disassembled, refer back to
Fig 2 for reassembly. Attach correct compression nuts to fittings.
4. Cut 1/4" OD tubing where filter will be installed.
5. On the inlet side of filter, insert tubing as far as possible into fitting. WATER
FLOWS IN DIRECTION INDICATED BY ARROW ON THE FILTER. See Fig 3.
If tubing does not enter the fitting, loosen the nut one turn. After inserting
tubing, hand tighten nut first, then tighten 1-1/2 to 2 turns with a wrench.
6. With only the inlet side connected, flush water thru filter into a container
for 5 minutes. Wait an hour, and then flush another 5 minutes, or until water
runs clear.*
7. Shut off water and then connect the outlet side of the filter to the appliance
using the procedure in step #5. Turn water on and check for leaks.
*NOTE: Though the filter has been rinsed to remove fine particles of carbon,
resettling of the carbon within the filter can occur. If the first trays of ice
become discolored, discard the ice until clear.
