Specification guidelines.
Many bad tastes and/or odors are removed
from water using activated carbon filter
cartridges. They are most often used to
remove a chlorine taste and odor. They can
also reduce other undesirable elements
from drinking water supplies, such as
organic chemical contaminants and lead.
NOTE: Small amounts of hydrogen sulfide
(noticeable as “rotten egg” odor) may be
reduced by taste and odor filters for a short
time, but the carbon media is quickly
exhausted. Other water conditioning
equipment is usually required for the
continuous treatment of hydrogen sulfide.

Using the Water Filtration System and About the Filter Cartridge
The countertop faucet dispenses filtered drinking
water when opened. It has a hand-operated, spring-
loaded closed lever to prevent waste. You can keep
the faucet open by pushing upward on the lever to
lock it against the faucet spout.
Filter Cartridge Life— Several variables determine
how long the cartridges will last in your Water
Filtration system. These include:
How much water you use.
How much sediment, taste and/or odor, lead, or
other unwanted substance, is in the water.
No matter which Water Filtration system you have,
you should replace the cartridges every six months,
when indicated by the electronic indicator light on
the base. In extremely poor water supplies, you may
notice the return of the unwanted substance in
your water before the six months are up. In this
case the cartridges should be replaced
immediately. If the system is also for lead or
chemical contaminant removal, it is MORE
IMPORTANT to replace the cartridges at least every
six months.
NOTE: If the water supply contains high amounts of
sediments, the carbon filters may plug with them,
reducing filtered water flow to the system faucet.
Cartridge replacement is needed to restore flow.
Electronic Indicator Light— The electronic indicator
light on the base of the faucet is a six month timer
that shows you when to replace the filter cartridges.
When the battery pack is first installed, the
indicator light will light briefly to show that the
electronics are operating. If this does not happen,
the batteries may be installed backwards or the
leadwires are not connected.
After about six months, the indicator light begins
to flash. It is time to replace the filter cartridges.
When replacing the filter cartridges, also replace
the batteries in the battery pack. Two “AA”
batteries are required.

About the water filtration system.
Filter Cartridge Replacement
CAUTION: Never remove the sumps when water pressure is in the Water Filtration system.
Close the water supply/saddle valve to the filter. (See Fig. 1 in the Installation Overview section
for location of the saddle valve.) Open the filtered water faucet.
Remove the sump, using the sump wrench tool provided, from the filter head by rotating the
sump as shown in the below illustration. Be careful, the sump may be full of water. Be sure to
keep the large o-ring seal.
If you are replacing a filter cartridge, remove and discard the used filter cartridge.
Be sure the inside of the sump is clean. Thoroughly wash the inside of the sump with hot,
soapy water and rinse.
Remove the wrapper from the new filter cartridge and insert the filter cartridge in the sump.
Some cartridges fit either way, while others fit only one way. Observe markings on the
cartridge.
NOTE: The Water Filtration system uses two different types of filter cartridges. Be sure to
install them correctly.
The sediment (FXUSB) filter cartridge should always be placed in the Filter Ι sump.
Lightly lubricate the o-ring seal in the sump with clean silicone grease. Be sure it is fully
seated in its groove.
Hold the sump up to the filter head, aligning the center hole in the cartridge with the
protrusion on the bottom of the head.
Being careful not to cross-thread, rotate the sump onto the filter head and tighten securely
by hand.
NOTE: If the sump will not tighten up to the head, you may have the cartridge in upside
down. Take the cartridge out and check for correct orientation.
Repeat steps 2 through 8 for the taste/odor (FXUTB) or lead/cyst (FXULB) filter cartridge in the
Filter ΙΙ sump.
Turn on the filtered water faucet. Then, slowly open the water supply/saddle valve and allow
the filter housing to fill.
Close the filtered water faucet. Then, check for leaks between the sump and the head.
NOTE: If leaking, turn off the water supply and turn on the filtered water faucet. Disassemble
the filter and check the o-ring for cuts, flat spots, etc., and sealing surfaces for foreign
material. Clean the o-ring and lightly lubricate with clean silicone grease. Carefully press
into the groove in the sump.
If you are replacing the batteries, remove, properly discard and install two new “AA”
alkaline batteries in the battery pack. Removing the batteries or momentarily disconnecting
the leadwires resets the six month electronic timer.
The filter cartridges contain activated carbon. When new, turn on the filtered water faucet
for ten minutes to flush the system.

Important Installation Recommendations
Read entire manual. Failure to follow all guides and rules could cause personal injury or property damage.
■ Check with your local public works department for plumbing codes. You must follow their guides as you install
the Water Filtration system.
■ Use the Water Filtration system on a potable, safe-to-drink, home COLD water supply only. The filter cartridges will
not purify water or make unsafe water safe to drink. DO NOT use on HOT water (100° F. max.).
■ Protect the Water Filtration system and piping from freezing. Water freezing in the system will damage it.
■ Your Water Filtration system will withstand up to 125 psi water pressure. If your house water supply pressure is
higher than 100 psi during the day (it may reach higher levels at night), install a pressure reducing valve before
the system.
WARNING: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without
adequate disinfection before or after the system. GNUL30 is certified for cyst reduction and may be used
on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts. The water should be tested periodically to verify
that the system is performing satisfactorily. Small parts remaining after the installation could be a choke
hazard. Discard safely.

Electronic Faucet Installation
Be sure there is room underneath the sink to make the
needed connections. Select one of the following places to
install the faucet:
—IN an existing sink spray attachment or soap dispenser
hole.
—IN a hole to be drilled in the sink top.
—IN a hole to be drilled in the countertop, next to
the sink.
NOTE: Looking at Fig. 3D, be sure the faucet base will fit
flat against the surface at the selected location so the
gasket will seal. The base may have to be angled sideways
or diagonally.
If drilling is needed, make a 1″-1 1 ⁄ 4 ″dia. hole. Be
sure to use the proper procedure for drilling porcelain
or stainless steel. Special drill bits may be needed.
Looking at Fig. 3A, insert a screw into the NON-
