4) Discard water in reservoir:
a) Open spigot and
discard all water in reservoir into sink.
Note:
It is normal for small black carbon particles from the carbon filter to appear in the first few reservoirs
of water. This is completely harmless.
b) Wipe inside of the reservoir with a clean paper towel or soft cloth.
Your RO appliance is now ready for regular use.
Regular Use
For regular use of your RO appliance follow these simple steps:
1) Attach quick connect to faucet and open flow control valve two full turns from closed position.
2) Turn COLD water on full force and allow RO appliance to flush for 1-2 minutes.
3) Turn down flow control valve until flow rate is a steady trickle (about 1/2 cup or 130 ml in 30
seconds). Your RO appliance is now producing clean, refreshing, great tasting water. It will fill the 2
gallon (7.6 liter) reservoir in approximately 2-4 hours. This is normally enough water for the daily
cooking and drinking needs of your family.
Important:
Remember, never stop the flow completely by overtightening the flow control valve. This
could damage the membrane in a short time.
Note:
You can monitor the level of water in the reservoir by looking through the window on the top.
4) When you’re ready to disconnect the RO unit, open flow control valve two full turns and flush for 1-2
minutes. Turn off cold water and wait at least 10 seconds. Then remove quick connect by pushing down
on plastic locking collar. Remember, never try to remove quick connect while cold water is still on.
Note:
Between uses, connecting tube can be coiled onto the convenient clip located on the back of the unit.
