INSTALLATION STEPS (cont.)

REFER TO PAGE 5. If optional kits are used, follow

instructions included with them.

1. Close the cold water side shutoff valve. (Usually, there already is a shutoff under the sink. If not, close the main water shutoff valve near the water meter or

pressure tank.)

2.Cut and remove a section of the cold water pipe.

3.If plumbing with flexible tubing, hang or support

the filter housing in some manner. If using rigid

pipe, be sure to allow a minimum of 1-1 /2" clearance

under the filter for sump removal when changing the filter cartridge.

4.Use the plumbing procedures on page 5 if using

compression fittings. Follow procedures on pages 5

and 6 for sweat copper and threaded pipe installa- tion. Be sure water flow is into the filter inlet side

and from the outlet side to the faucet.

Note: A grounding jumper wire is not required.

5. Before turning on the water supply remove the sump from the filter head and install the filter car- tridge (see below).
