OPERATION

To receive filter water, fully open cold water and pull valve stem. Allow water to flush for 3 seconds before each use. When your water needs are finished, simply turn off the cold water.

WARNING: Do not attempt to filter hot water above 100°F (37.7°C). It will damage the filter cartridge and decrease performance.

NOTE: If it is necessary to connect a portable dishwasher to your faucet, simply unscrew the aerator from the filter and attach the dishwasher according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Filter Cartridge Replacement

	the finger tabs underneath the housing and turning the filter in the direction

shown. Be sure to support the faucet and the filter housing during filter removal to avoid damage. Dispose of old cartridge.

NOTE: Some water may drip from the system during filter cartridge removal.

2	Insert new filter cartridge into the filter housing and turn 21⁄2–3 full turns, until it
	stops. Slowly turn on the cold water and check for leaks.
	NOTE: If leak occurs at filter, turn cartridge to make sure it is fully sealed.
	With the cold water fully open, pull the valve stem to begin flushing the system.
