Slide filtration asse 5a . mounting holes onto mounting screws that were installed in step 3b. DO NOT kink or bend tubing. Insulated staples may be used to secure tubing to cabinet walls. Tighten mount- ing screws to secure filtration assembly to wall. Replace fil- tration assembly cover.
5b In step 3h you filled the storage tank with , water to activate the special disinfectant. If
that water has set in the tank for at least 15 minutes, you can now drain the tank. To do this, turn the storage tank’s blue valve on (up). Lift the faucet handle and allow tank to completely drain. Close faucet.
Important: The storage tank must be filled and drained two more times before the water is suitable for use.
Turn on cold water supply and saddle valve. 5C . Check for leaks. (If the saddle valve leaks, refer to “General Tips” on page 14 to make necessary correc- tions.) Lift faucet handle until a short but steady stream of water flows - this can take about
5d Close faucet handle and allow tank to fill.
. Since the tank is now connected to the filtra-
tion system it will take about 4 hours to fill. DO NOT use this water. Turn on faucet and drain tank. Close faucet and refill tank, wait at least 4 hours and drain system again. DO NOT use this water. It may contain some disinfectant solution. Disregard indicator lights at this time. When storage tank is emptied for the third time, the sanitizing agent is completely flushed from tank. The faucet will steadily drip when faucet is on. Check that there is a steady drip from faucet.
5e The system should be ready to use as soon
. as the tank refills (about 4 hours), and the indicator disk’s light turns green when the faucet is turned on. If any objectionable taste is present after the third draining, or if the light is yellow, wait four more hours and drain the tank again. As soon as the tank refills, taste the water. If it has a taste you may want to drain and fill the tank again. If water tastes okay, the system is ready for use. When the faucet is turned on, the indicator light should now be green.
GeneralInformation
lWater will not flow immediately from the faucet after installation. The Reverse Osmosis process is not immediate and it may take up to four hours to fill the storage tank.
l After installation, completely drain the system twice to remove sanitizing agent used during manufactur- ing. The green light on the indicator disk will light up when the sanitizing agent has been flushed out of
the system.
lThe flow rate from this system’s water faucet is dependent upon the amount of tubing used in installa- tion and the water pressure in your home.
lDO NOT install this water filtration system outside of the home.
l Maintenance of this water filtration system is very important.
Replace the Sediment (S), GAC Carbon (GAC) and Carbon Block (CB) cartridges annually. Replace the TFCM Membrane (RO) Cartridge when the indicator disk light turns yellow. Failure to maintain this water filtration system over an extended period of time could present health risks.
