5. Final assembly
A) Using a sharp hobby knife or similar to cut the flexible red tube from the self cutting
tap to a length suitable for it to reach the inlet side of the filter cartridge. Remember
to allow a sufficient length, so that it can be routed without kinks and be kept clear of
any sharp edges or obstacles.
(B) With the tube cut 'squarely' and to the right length, ensure the end is clean before
firmly pushing it into the push fit connector on the inlet side of the filter cartridge,
pull back slightly to affect a water tight seal.
(C) Repeat process for the touch flow tap, attaching tube to the outlet side of the cartridge.
(D) Turn on water supply and check all connection for leaks.
(E) Turn on the quarter turn tap to remove any airlocks. Run water for several minutes
until water runs clear to flush and prime cartridge.
NOTE:
for optimum performance, flow rate should not exceed 2 lm.
6. Filter Cartridge Replacement
NOTE:
It is recommended that the cartridge be replaced every six months, or when you
notice a change in taste, odour, or flow of the water being filtered.
A) Turn off the water supply to the filter and dispense water from drinking water tap
until water flow stops to relieve pressure.
(B) Place a small bowl and towel under the filter to catch any water drips.
(C) If necessary remove filter cartridge from the bracket to improve your access.
(D) Now disconnect the red and blue tube from the filter cartridge one at a time by
placing your finger and thumb either side of the tube where it enters the filter
cartridge and pushing the small white collar toward the filter body this will release
the tube. Hold the collar in this position and gently pull the tube out of the cartridge.
(E) Remove and dispose of the cartridge, recycling where facilities exist.
(F) Fit the new cartridge by simply pushing the end of the red tube into the push fit
connector on the inlet side of the filter cartridge, pull back slightly to affect a water
tight seal.
(G) Repeat process for the blue tube, attaching it to the outlet side of the cartridge.
(H) Turn on water and check for leaks.
(I) Flush water through drinking water tap for up to 5 minutes to remove air, and any
excess filter media.
