Maintaining your
Forbes Under
Sink RO 

1) With  everything  connected,  turn  on  the  water    to 

check for any leakage.

2) Make  sure  the  storage  tank  shut-off  valve  is  OFF. 

Open the sink top faucet.

3) Within a few minutes (up to 15 minutes) the water 

will start to run from the faucet slowly.

4) Let  the  water  run  for  at  least  30  minutes.  This 

flushes the carbon filters on first-time use.

5) After  the  initial  flushing,  open  the  shut-off  valve  of 

the tank and close the sink top faucet.

6) Tank will not get filled (it takes usually 1 to 2 hours). 

After  the  tank  has  filled,  open  the  sink  top  faucet 
and  drain  all  the  water  until  the  storage  tank  is 
empty and there is only a small flow from the sink 
top faucet. 

DO NOT USE FIRST TANK WATER.

7) Close  the  sink  top  faucet.  The  system  is  now 

ready for use.
