file. (B) Push a quick-connect elbow onto each end of remaining cold water line.
Be sure to push elbow onto pipe until you hit a hard stop.
3. Determine the lengths of tubing needed to connect the inlet and outlet
sides of filter to the quick-connect fittings on the cold water line. Measure
tubing short enough to prevent kinking. Cut the tubing squarely between the
closest set of black guide arrows. Assemble as shown in Figure 3, inserting
tubing into appropriate inlet or outlet quick-connect fitting until it stops (inlet
and outlet are marked "IN" and "OUT" on cap).
NOTE: When cut between a set of black guide arrows, the tubing should
be pushed into the fitting so that the entrance of the fitting falls between
the next set of guide arrows (approximately
4. Slowly turn on the water supply (A) to allow filter to fill with water, then press
the red pressure-relief button (B) on top of filter to release trapped air. Check
for leaks before leaving installation.
NOTE: A drinking water cartridge may contain carbon fines (very fine black
powder). After installation, flush the cartridge for 15 minutes to remove the
fines before using the water. It is recommended that you run the tap at least
20 seconds prior to using water for drinking or cooking purposes.
5. NOTE: Disconnecting the Tubing from the Quick-Connect Fittings.
Routine maintenance and cartridge replacement will not require that you
disconnect the tubing from the filter cap; however, tubing may be quickly
and easily removed from the fittings if necessary. First, turn off the water
supply to the filter and open faucet to drain the pipes. Then simply depress
the gray collar (A) around the inlet fitting of the housing while pulling the
tubing (B) with your other hand. Repeat for the outlet fitting.

Filter Cartridge Replacement

A. (1) Turn off water supply to filter and place a tray or towel under the system
to catch any water that spills during removal of the filter cartridge.
(2) Depress red pressure-relief button, then
(3) unscrew and remove bottom of filter housing (See Fig. A.)
NOTE: If turning off water supply to filter will also turn off water supply to
the rest of the home, be sure to fill a bucket of water first to allow you to
clean housing after it has been removed.
B. Locate and remove large O-ring (1), wipe clean of lubricant, and set aside.
Discard used filter cartridge (2). Rinse out bottom of filter housing and fill
full with water. Add 2 tablespoons of bleach and scrub bottom of housing with
nonabrasive sponge or cloth. Rinse thoroughly. Lubricate O-ring with clean
silicone grease. Insert O-ring in groove and press into place.
NOTE: This step is important to ensure a proper housing seal.
Make certain the O-ring is seated level in the groove.
Insert new filter cartridge in bottom of housing. Cartridges with one gasket
should be inserted with the gasketed end toward the threads of the housing
(gasketed end would point upwards if housing is mounted as shown in Fig. B).
C. (1) Screw bottom of housing onto the cap and hand-tighten. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
(2) Slowly turn on the water supply to allow filter to fill with water, then
(3) press the red pressure-relief button on top of filter to release trapped air.
Check for leaks before leaving installation.
NOTE: A drinking water cartridge may contain carbon fines
(very fine black powder). After installation, flush the cartridge
for 15 minutes to remove the fines before using the water. It is
recommended that you run the tap at least 20 seconds prior to
using water for drinking or cooking purposes.
