Precautions
WARNING: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection
before or after the system.
CAUTION: Filter must be protected against freezing, which can cause cracking of the filter and water leakage.
CAUTION: The rubber o-ring provides the water-tight seal between the cap and the bottom of the housing. It is important
that the o-ring be properly seated in the groove below the threads of the housing, or a water leak could occur.
CAUTION: To prevent costly repairs or possible water damage the sump of plastic housings must be replaced every five
years for clear, and ten years for opaque. If sump is older than recommended, replace immediately. Date sump for reference
and indicate replacement date.
• Install on cold water line only.
• Do not install where system will be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Make certain that installation complies with all state and local laws and regulations.
• For prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a vacation), it is recommended that the system be flushed
thoroughly. Let water run for 5–6 minutes before using.
• The filter cartridge has a limited service life. A decrease in water flow indicates that the cartridge should be
replaced.
• Some harmless bacteria will attack cellulose media cartridges. If your cartridge seems to disintegrate or has a musty
or moldy odor, switch to a synthetic media cartridge or consult the cartridge manufacturer.
