Installation Instructions

REPLACING THE FILTER CANISTER

The amber light in the faucet base will flash every

30 seconds to indicate a filter change is needed. This

occurs every 6 months. TO PROPERLY MAINTAIN

SYSTEM, CHANGE FILTER AS REQUIRED.

1. Remove the filter canister from the manifold by

rotating the canister to the left about 1/3 turn

(Fig. 9). NOTE: A small amount of water from the

tubing between the filter and the faucet may come

out. A small towel should be able to catch it.

2. Remove foil on top of new replacement filter

canister. Install the new canister into the manifold

by turning it to the right about 1/3 turn until the

alignment marks line up and the filter stops. DO

NOT OVERTIGHTEN. The filter will rise up as it

is turned.

3. Turn handle on faucet to allow trapped air to purge

from the system.

NOTE: System may make noise during this procedure.

4. Check for water leaks around the system.

5. Once water starts to flow out of the faucet, allow the

system to run for 4 gallons (or 5 minutes) to flush out

any harmless carbon fines that may be present.

6. Turn off faucet and check around system for leaks.

7. Remove battery tray and replace battery to reset

timer. (See Battery Installation for proper procedure.)
