Following these simple precautions will help assure continued trouble-free service and keep your
Culligan Water Conditioner looking like new for years.
1
Use only mild soap and warm water when cleaning the exterior of the conditioner. Never use
harsh, abrasive cleaning compounds or those which contain acid, such as vinegar, bleach and
similar products.
2
Important: Protect your water conditioner and the entire drainline from freezing
temperatures. DANGER! If your unit should freeze, do not attempt to disassemble
it. Call your Culligan Dealer.
3
Important: Culligan water filters are sold for use on potable water, only. If at any time the
water becomes contaminated, such as during a "boil water" situation, the operation of the
water filter should be discontinued until it is verified that the water is again potable. To do this,
rotate the blue knob clockwise on the back of the water filter until it stops against the body of
the bypass valve. Then, call your Culligan dealer to have your system sanitized before it is
placed back into service.
Note: Following the manufacturer's instructions regarding operation, maintenance and re
placement requirements, including replacement of filters if applicable, is essential for Culligan's
products to perform as advertised.

Should service, adjustment or trouble-shooting information be needed which is not covered in
the Use and Care Guide, call your Culligan Dealer.
If you have further questions, please call your local independently operated Culligan dealer. He or
she will be glad to be of assistance to you. For your nearest Culligan dealer, call (800) 285-5442.
Recommended Preventative Maintenance Inspection Schedule
The Culligan Gold Series water filter has been designed to provide a good, consistent service
life. Routinely inspecting the system may help avoid potentially costly breakdowns related to
circumstances outside of the control of the dealer and/or user. The filter is for problem water
use and routine maintenance is required. Contact your local Culligan dealer to perform routine
maintenance.

Controller
service is performed on the

As needed.
Reason for Maintenance
On private supplies, the appearance of off-tastes and
odors, particularly if musty or "rotten egg" (caused by
harmless sulfate-reducing bacteria) may indicate a need
for the system to be sanitized.
Build up of sediment, iron and/or other foreign materials
(found in some water supplies but not necessarily all) could
negatively affect system performance. Monitor item for
normal or unexpected wear.
Replace when arsenic can no longer be removed.
