General Use Conditions

Read this Performance Data Sheet and compare the capabilities of this unit with your actual water treatment needs. DO NOT use this product where water is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. System certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts. USE ONLY WITH COLD WATER SUPPLY. CHECK FOR COMPLIANCE WITH THE STATE AND LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS.

The retractable water filtration system uses a RWFFR replacement cartridge. Timely replacement of filter cartridge is essential for performance satisfaction from this filtration system. Please refer to the applicable section of your Use & Care Guide for general operation, maintenance requirements and troubleshooting.

This system has been tested according to ANSI/NSF 42 and 53 for reduction of the substance listed above. The concentration of the indicated substances in water entering the system was reduced to a concentration less than or equal to the permissible limit for water leaving the system, as specified in ANSI/NSF 42 and 53.
