Use and Care Manual Model IC-100
Precautions and Usage Guidelines
WARNING: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
CAUTION: The filter must be protected against freezing.
Failure to do so may result in cracking of the filter and water leakage.
NOTE: Make certain that installation of this system complies with all state and
local laws and regulations.
FOR COLD WATER USE ONLY.
MAINTENANCE: Contact your area retailer for replacement cartridges and
pricing or call Culligan Customer Service at 888-777-7962 for the nearest
dealer. Change cartridge every 2,500 gallons or approximately every 12 months.
Filter Installation Instructions
(For copper or plastic tubing)
NOTE: Shut off water supply when replacing filter.
1. Shut off water supply. Select a location for installation on 1/4" OD (outside
diameter) plastic or copper tubing. Filter requires at least three inches behind
appliance. See Fig 1.
NOTE: Leave at least a 5-foot coil of tubing between appliance side and
compression fittings. This will allow room to pull out the appliance for
changing the filter.
2. Cut 1/4" OD tubing where filter will be installed.
3. Measure 3/4" from the end of each remaining piece of tubing (inlet end and
outlet end) and mark with a pencil. See Fig 2. Check for roundness, smoothness,
cuts, nicks, flat spots and sharp edges.
4. Observe arrow on the product that indicates inlet and outlet and install
accordingly. See Fig.3.
5. Push the tubing firmly into each fitting on the manifold until the line is flush
with the fitting collar. (If the tubing is removed, re-cut the end, measure, mark
and re-insert). Tubing must be fully inserted to avoid leaks. See Fig 4.
(To remove tubing: depress and hold white collet; pull tubing out to remove).
6. Pull out slightly on tubing to ensure good seal.
7. With only the inlet side connected, flush water thru filter into a container for
5 minutes. Wait an hour, and then flush another 5 minutes, or until water
runs clear.*
8. Shut off water and then connect the outlet side of the filter to the appliance
using the procedure in step #5. Turn water on and check for leaks.
*NOTE: Though the filter has been rinsed to remove fine particles of carbon,
resettling of the carbon within the filter can occur. If the first trays of ice
become discolored, discard the ice until clear.

treatment needs.
This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for reduction of the
substances listed below. The concentration of the indicated substances in water entering the
system was reduced to a concentration of less than or equal to the permissible limit for
water leaving the system, as specified in NSF/ANSI standard 42.
