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.
Apply the Filter Replacement Reminder Label to
one of the filter sumps between the ribs. Mark
the date for filter replacement six months from
the installation date.
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.
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.

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.) Press the vent valve on the top of the Filter Ihead to relieve
the pressure in the system, or 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/taste and odor filter (FXUS) should always be placed in the Filter I 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 Filter II.
Turn on the filtered water faucet. Then, slowly open the water supply/saddle valve and allow
the filter housing to fill. While it is filling, press the filter vent valve to release air in the filter.
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, or press the
vent valve to depressurize the filter. 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.
The filter cartridges contain activated carbon, a black powder. When new, turn on the
filtered water faucet for ten minutes to allow the fine, harmless carbon particles to purge
from the cartridge.

Mounting Bracket to Cabinet Wall
The bracket can be used as a template for marking the location of the mounting screws. When determining
the location of the bracket make sure you leave 1-1⁄2″ to 2″ of free area under the sumps to allow for sump
removal and enough space on either side to make the tubing connections.
Make Tubing Connections
Run the length of 3⁄8″tubing, connected to the bottom of faucet, to the filter system outlet, Fig.1 in the
Installation Overview section. Allow enough slack in the tubing to be able to place the system on the floor
