USING YOUR COUNTERTOP WATER FILTER

Set a glass, cup, pitcher, or other container under the filter spout. The spout rotates to any desired position.

Open the COLD water faucet and adjust to a medium flow.

Pull the diverter knob outward to direct water to the filter.

When the container is full of fil- tered water, close the cold water faucet. Then, be sure the diverter valve has closed (knob inward).

CAUTION: Do not direct hot water into the countertop filter. Always

be sure the diverter valve knob is in-

ward (closed) before opening the sink hot water faucet.

CAUTION: Do not force the divert- er knob inward while the cold water faucet is open. Always close the fau-

cet first, to prevent damaging the di- verter.

Note: Cartridges containing carbon must be flushed to allow fine, harm-

less carbon particles to purge from

the cartridge. Close the diverter

valve when you no longer see the

"fines" in the filtered water, or approximately 2- 3 minutes.
