Sanitize the system.

CAUTION: Before adding the sanitizing agent, be sure to remove all cartridges as described above. Chlorine will destroy the

Reverse Osmosis Cartridge. Sanitizing the system is done with the reverse osmosis cartridge and filter cartridges removed from the system.

a	Before reinstalling the PREFILTER
	sump, fill this sump with cold water to
	about 1″ from the O-ring. Add one
	ounce (two tablespoons) of ordinary
	5.25% household chlorine bleach
	(Hilex, Clorox, etc.) and mix into the
	water. DO NOT ADD CHLORINE FIRST.
	Concentrated chlorine may damage plastic.
	Carefully reinstall the sump onto the
b
	Reverse Osmosis System and tighten
	securely by hand.
	Close the RO water faucet and turn on
c
	the water supply valve to the system.
	Allow system to fill for one minute.

NOTE: Various sounds will occur during the

sanitizing. DO NOT USE WATER DURING

SANITIZATION.

	Open the RO water faucet, locking the
d
	lever upward against the spout. Allow
	water to flow through the Reverse
	Osmosis system until all bleach odor
	is gone (approximately 20 minutes).
	Turn off the water supply valve to the
e
	system, but leave the RO water faucet
	open. When the flow of water stops,
	proceed to Step 9.

Be sure hands have been cleaned with anti- bacterial soap. Repeat Steps 3–6 and 8b; however, reinstall the Reverse Osmosis Cartridge from the bag and the new PREFILTER and POSTFILTER instead of removing them. Lightly lubricate the inlet cover and sump O-rings with clean silicone grease only.

NOTE: The Reverse Osmosis Cartridge is notched and may need to be rotated during reinstallation for proper fit.

Turn on water supply valve to the Reverse Osmosis System and allow approximately four hours for the system to regenerate and stabilize. Check the system for leaks. The system may make some sounds during this period. This is normal.

Replace the “AA” alkaline batteries in

the control box. Good batteries are necessary to ensure proper indicator light operation. Weak batteries may give a false indication. Batteries should be changed every six months.

Before first use after filter changes, purge the system by opening RO water faucet for one minute to remove any harmless carbon particles. If the system is connected to your refrigerator icemaker, reset the icemaker feeler arm to the on (down) position after the four-hour regeneration period.
