INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

For Use With Cold Water Only.
NOTE: Remove items from under the sink. Place catch basin there to collect small amounts of water that may run out
when disconnecting water supply lines.
1. Turn off cold water supply valve and remove existing water
supply tubing and/or fitting.
2. Select and mark a location under the sink that allows access
for filter change.
3. Using filter head/bracket as a guide, fasten Filter Head
Assembly to wall with #2 Phillips mounting screws supplied.
Mark hole locations so that there is 1 1/2" between the
screws (see Figure 1), from center of each screw. When
installed, filter bottom should be at least 2 1/2" from sink
cabinet floor to facilitate cartridge change. Install screws, but
only halfway, so you can easily slip the bracket to wall before
firmly setting screws.
4. Determine length of tubing required from filter head/bracket
to faucet and from water supply line to filter head/bracket by
holding tubing in place ensuring it is of appropriate length.
Do not kink tubing as this will impede water flow. If neces-
sary, loop tubing around to avoid it being kinked.
Cut tubing straight with a utility knife. (See Figure 2).
5. Install faucet adapter fitting to faucet. This should be a snug
fit. Do not overtighten. (See Figure 3)
"Using Push-In Fittings"
To Attach Tubing
Push tubing in as far as it will go. Tubing must be inserted
past o-ring and hit backstop. Pull tube to ensure it is secured.
To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
• Ensure all tubing and fi ttings are secure and free of leaks.
