2.
Unscrew the filter housing. Remove and discard the
existing cartridge.

Rinse out the filter housing and scrub the inside with
mild soap and warm water using a non-abrasive
sponge. Also scrub the inside areas of the filter cap.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water.

groove and O-ring clean. Lubricate O-ring with a coating
of clean petroleum jelly (Vaseline
the groove and wipe or press it down into the groove
using two fingers.
NOTE: The rubber O-ring provides a 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.
5.
Place the new cartridge into the filter housing and screw

Before running water through the RVF-10 system into
the storage tank, flush out any carbon fines that may be
present in the carbon cartridge. Disconnect the hose at
the storage tank and turn the water supply on for
approximately one minute. Turn off water supply and
reconnect the hose to the storage tank.
The replacement cartridge should be changed when the orig-
inal foul tastes or odors appear or when there is a noticeable
drop in water pressure at the filter housing outlet.
