Water Leaks at Push-In Connections:
Push tubing in as far as it will go. If leaking continues, shut off water at the original valve and remove water line by
pushing in on the connector collar while pulling the tubing away. Inspect tubing for cracks and scratches. If tubing is
cracked or scratched, simply cut that portion away and reinsert tubing into push-in fitting.
Make sure tubing is cut straight. If not, recut.
If water leaks, please verify that the o-ring is properly seated in its groove.
Water Does Not Flow From The Drinking Water System Faucet:
Check to see if the main water line valve is open, allowing water to flow to the filter.
Water Appears Cloudy or Air Comes Out of the Drinking Water System Faucet:
Flush 10 gallons through system before use (approximately 5 to 7.5 minutes) to remove any carbon fines or trapped air
in the filter and water lines.
