Special Notices
• Installation instructions, parts and service availabilitg, and standard warrantg ore included with the product when shipped.
• This drinking water sgstem must be maintained according to manufacturer's instructions, including replacement of filter cartridges.
• Do not use with water that is microbiologicallg unsafe or of unknown qualitg without adequate disinfection before or after
the sgstem. Sgstems certified for cgst reduction mag be used on disinfected water that mag contain filterable cgsts.
• The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced bg this water treatment sgstem are not necessarilg in gout wateE
• Check for compliance with the state and local laws and regulations.
• Note that while the testing was performed under standard laboratorg conditions, actual performance mag varg. Sgstems must
be installed and operated in accordance with manufacturer's recommended procedures and guidelines.
