INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

1. Remove the bubbler screen (aerator) from the end of your faucet and replace it with the diverter valve of
the Purity CT unit. The diverter valve has a rotating collar for ease of installation. Note the type of threads
your faucet has - if it has threads on the OUTSIDE, the diverter should screw right on; if it has threads on
the INSIDE, you must use the enclosed adapter ring and gasket. If your faucet has non-standard threads,
you may need to purchase a special adapter from your local hardware store (or call your dealer).
2. Place the filter unit in a convenient location with the spout positioned over your sink. The spout is
designed to swivel. Turn on your cold water and divert the water through the filter by pulling out on the
knob on the diverter valve. Water pressure should hold it in the out position. Allow it to run for several
minutes to flush out the normal carbon fines (blackish specs). Initially, the water may contain tiny air
bubbles and taste slightly sweet - this is normal and harmless, and will clear up after flushing. To stop the
flow, simply turn off the cold water at your faucet - the diverter valve knob will return automatically for
normal unfiltered water flow through your kitchen faucet. BE SURE TO RUN ONLY COLD WATER
THROUGH THE UNIT.
3.
The white plastic wrench is for use in loosening the filter housing cap from the base
when it is time to replace the filter cartridge. Keep in a safe place. You will need it
for future cartridge changes.
