lined up with the indicator mark located on the filter head.
3. Gently pull down on the filter cartridge to remove it from the filter head. Note:
there may be some water in the filter and some spilling may occur. To reduce
the amount of spillage keep the filter upright and do not tip.
4. Remove the filter from the packaging. Remove the filter cap.
5. Apply the month sticker to the filter cartridge as a reminder to replace the filter
every six months.
6. Life up the install mark located on the filter label with the indicator line that is
molded into the filter head.
7. Twist the filter cartridge ¼ turn to the right to lock it into place. The remove mark
should be lined up with the indicator line on the filter label.

for 4 gallons (approximately 5 minutes) through the dispenser until water runs
steady. Additional flushing may be required in some households where water is
of poor quality.
