System Installation:

IMPORTANT

Before attempting this installation, be certain to turn “OFF” the cold water supply  

located under your sink. If a shut-off valve is not located on the cold water line directly 

under your kitchen sink, shut off the main water supply to your home.

RECOMMENDATION

You may want to reduce the length of the Tubing if you find there is excess. However, 

it is advisable to leave the Red and Blue Tubing long enough so that the System can 

be easily removed from under the sink for Filter Cartridge replacement.

CAUTION

Use a sharp knife when cutting Tubing. Take extra care not to distort Tubing while  

cutting. Cut Tubing end straight. Failure to do so may result in leaking.

IMPORTANT

Once inserted completely, give Tubing a gentle tug to make sure it has been properly 

seated in the fitting to create a permanent seal. If you find that it is necessary to 

remove the Tubing from Inlet or Outlet Connectors, depress the small Collar located 

on the Inlet and Outlet Connectors and pull Tubing upward at same time.
