Important guidelines
Do not unplug UV unit from power supply . Turning system off & on
will shorten the life of the UV lamp . UV should be on continuously for
maximum effectiveness .
The system requires a warm-up period for proper operation . Wait 20
minutes after plugging in the system before using water .
Water not drawn from unit for a period of time may have a taste or
odor and will be warm . To avoid this, allow water to run through the
system for one minute before using .
Replacement filters for this and many other filtration systems can be
purchased directly from Watts Premier . Ordering options include mail
order, telephone ordering, and online filter replacement . Addition-
ally, Premier sells filtration and reverse osmosis systems suitable for
almost any individual or commercial application .
