WARNING
To reduce the risk associated with ingestion of contaminants:
• Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection before and after the system. Systems certifi ed
for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected water that may contain fi lterable
cysts. EPA Establishment Number 070595-MEX-001.
NOTICE
To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
• Read and follow use instructions before installation and use of this system.
• Installation and use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.
• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 120 psi (827 kPa). If your water pressure

exceeds 80 psi, you must install a pressure-limiting valve. Contact a plumbing
professional if you are uncertain how to check your water pressure.
• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer
conditions exist you must install a water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing
professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.
• Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water
temperature of this fi lter system is 100º F (38º C).
• Protect fi lter from freezing. Drain fi lter when temperatures drop
below 33ºF (0.6ºC).
• The disposable fi lter cartridge must be replaced every 6 months at the
rated capacity, or sooner if a noticeable reduction in fl ow rate occurs.
For conditions of use, health claims certified by the California Department of Public
Health, and replacements, see performance data sheet. California Department
of Public Health Certification #11-2110. The contaminants or other substances
removed or reduced by this water filter are not necessarily in all users' water.
