Remove the RO membrane from its housing and rest in a clean sanitary place. (Refer to
“Membrane Replacement” section on page 13 for directions on removing the membrane).
Replace cap onto empty membrane housing and re-connect white tube.

1st filter housing (Stage 1) and hand tighten onto unit.
With the RO faucet in the closed position turn on the incoming water supply to the system at
the adapt-a-valve. Wait 1 minute for the unit to pressurize. Turn on the RO faucet and let the
water run for 30 seconds. Turn off the RO faucet and let the unit rest for 2 minutes. Finally,
open the RO faucet and let the water run for 5 more minutes.
Turn off the incoming water supply to the system at the adapt-a-valve. Keep the RO faucet
open until the storage tank is completely drained.
Open the membrane housing and re-install the RO membrane while making sure not to kink
the O-rings. (Refer to “Membrane Replacement” section on page 13 for directions on
installing the membrane). Tighten the cap back on the housing and reconnect white tube.
