INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
CARE AND OPTIMUM USE
TROUBLESHOOTING
Remove red cap. Follow the instructions below to install your countertop system.
1. Use COLD water only. Do not use on hot water. This may damage the cartridges.
2. The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by this water filter are not
necessarily in all users’ area.
3. Soak the diverter in a vinegar and water solution once a month. This will clean deposits that
form from feed water and help prevent corrosion of internal diverter mechanisms
1. Low water pressure or no water flow. Very low water temperatures may cause water flow
through membrane to slow or stop. Wait for temperature to rise.
2. High levels of hardness in feed water. A crystallized layer may form around membrane in feed
water with high levels of hardness, causing water to flow improperly. Soak membrane in
vinegar and water solution for 2 to 3 hours to clean membrane. Rinse thoroughly before using.
3. Exhausted filter cartridges. Exhausted cartridges may clog. If steps above do not bring
results, filters should be changed.
