3.Wipe up excess water in filter cover and continue with Initial Installation, steps 2 and 3.

The filter should be changed at least every 12 months.

Important: Condition of water and amount used determines life span of water filter cartridge. If water use is high, or if water is of poor quality, replacement may need to take place more often.
