Installation Instructions

D. OPTIONAL REMOTE LOCATION INSTALLATION

(requires additional part)

1.Turn off the cold water supply.

2.Complying with plumbing codes, install a fitting on the cold water pipe to adapt 1/4″ OD tubing. A typical connection is shown in illustration below. Make sure a water supply valve is used.

3.If the RO unit is to be installed more than 6 feet from the valve, replace the yellow

banded inlet tubing with a longer length of GE 1/4″ tubing. A 33 foot length of 1/4″ tubing is available through GE Parts and Services at 1.800.626.2002, part number WS07X10018. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE

TUBING OF UNKNOWN QUALITY.

4.If the RO unit is to be installed more than 6 feet from the faucet, replace the blue

banded outlet tubing with a longer length of GE 3/8″ tubing. A 33 foot length is available through GE Parts and Services at 1.800.626.2002, part number WS07X10019. See Faucet Installation on page 13 for more details. DO NOT SUBSTITUTE TUBING OF

UNKNOWN QUALITY.

E.REMOVAL AND RE-INSTALLATION OF INLET VALVE (required only if

inlet valve needs to be removed to complete Step 5 on page 13)

1.Remove inlet valve (F) from adapter (C) using adjustable wrench on valve body. See illustration below for detail. DO NOT

USE WRENCH ON HEX NUT END OF VALVE AS LEAK MAY OCCUR.

2.Remove all sealing tape from inlet valve

(F) and adapter (C) threads.

3.Hand tighten assembled adapter (C) onto supply valve (A) for the proper size installation. Be sure the gaskets (G), as shown on page 13, are in place before final assembly. Finish tightening with adjustable wrench. Be careful not to overtighten or cross thread as damage to threads may occur.

4.Using white thread sealing tape provided, apply approximately 9 wraps of tape around the large threads on inlet valve (F) in a clockwise direction, as shown below.

5.Hand tighten inlet valve (F) into the adapter (C), then finish tightening with adjustable wrench. DO NOT USE WRENCH ON HEX

NUT END OF VALVE AS LEAK MAY OCCUR.
