Precautions

WARNING:

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown
quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected waters
that may contain filterable cysts.

CAUTION:

Filter must be protected against freezing, which can cause cracking of
the filter and water leakage.

CAUTION:

The rubber O-ring provides the water-tight seal between the cap and
the bottom of the housing. It is important that the O-ring be properly
seated in the groove below the threads of the housing or a water
leak could occur.

CAUTION:

Because of the product’s limited service life and to prevent costly
repairs or possible water damage, we strongly recommend that the
bottom of all plastic housings be replaced every ten years. If the
bottom of your housing has been in use for longer than this period, it
should be replaced immediately. Date the bottom of any new or
replacement housing to indicate the next recommended replacement
date.

NOTE:

• For cold water use only.
• Make certain that installation complies with all state and local laws and regulations.
• The contaminants or other substances removed or reduced by the selected

cartridge are not necessarily in your water. Ask your local water municipality
for a copy of their water analysis, or have your water tested by a reputable
water testing lab.

• After prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a vacation) it is

recommended that the system be flushed thoroughly. Let water run for 5–6
minutes before using.

• The filter cartridges used with this system have a limited service life. Changes

in taste, odor, and/or flow of the water being filtered indicate that the cartridge
should be replaced.

The Model SY-2650 is Tested and Certified by NSF International against ANSI/NSF
Standard 42 for the reduction of Taste and Odor, Chlorine Class I, and Particulate Class I.
Standard 53 for the reduction of MTBE, Lead, Mercury, VOC, Cyst, Asbestos, and Turbidity.

About Your CULLIGAN

Monitored MTBE Filtration System

Thank you for purchasing a Culligan Monitored MTBE Filtration System. With only
minimal maintenance, your new system will provide you with safer, better-tasting
water for years to come. The filter cartridges should be changed after every 500
gallons of use or once every six months, whichever comes first. Filter life will vary
depending on usage and water conditions, and changes in taste, odor, and/or flow
of the water being filtered indicate that the filter cartridges should be replaced. The
SY-2650 incorporates an electronic monitor that measures the number of
gallons flowing through the system and alerts you when the filter cartridges need
to be replaced.

SY-2650 Monitored MTBE
Filtration System

The SY-2650 Monitored MTBE Filtration System uses two carbon filter cartridges
specially formulated to provide safer, cleaner, and better-tasting water. In addition
to the MTBE, chlorine, asbestos reduction and cyst removal, the SY-2650 filtration
system is NSF-certified to reduce lead, mercury, pesticides, herbicides, and various
Chemicals (VOC’s) in drinking water (see performance data on pg 7 for specific
claims).
Lead is tasteless and colorless, and may enter your water supply through lead
pipes, lead solder, and brass fittings and faucets. High levels of lead in your
drinking water may lead to serious long-term health problems, especially in
children. The SY-2650 system has been Tested and Certified by NSF International
to reduce lead well below the USEPA Action Level of 10 parts per billion.
A variety of pesticides, herbicides, and other chemicals (sometimes referred to as
Volatile Organic Chemicals or VOC’s) may be present in your water supply.
Common contaminants include lindane, atrazine, benzene, and trihalomethanes.
Trihalomethanes (THM) are a class of potentially harmful chemicals formed as a by
product of chlorination. The SY-2650 is NSF-Certified to reduce these and over 30
other chemicals to well below EPA drinking water standards. For a complete listing
of chemical reduction test results, see the Performance Data.
