I. Product Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! Our under-the-sink
water filtration system AUT3234 comes with a 4-stage ultrafiltration, which
eectively reduces particles, heavy metals, volatile organic compounds, pesticides,
bacteria, and pollutants down to 0.01 micron*, while retaining beneficial minerals
at the same time.
Read this user manual carefully before you use the appliance. Save it for future
reference.
* The substances removed or reduced by this system are not necessarily in all
user’s water.
** When the inlet water pressure exceeds 0.4 MPa, a pressure relief valve should
be installed before the system. When the inlet water pressure is below 0.1 MPa,
a pressure booster should be installed before the system. The pressure relief valve
and extra pressure booster need to be purchased separately.

- The installation process should be carried out under appropriate hygienic
conditions, taking all necessary precautions concerning materials and components
that will come into contact with water to be treated or consumed.
- Avoid external contamination of the system through improper handling, using
gloves, sanitizing gel, and washing hands as often as is necessary during the
installation process, first use, and system maintenance.
- The system and installation shall comply with applicable local regulations.
- This product cannot be disposed of with other domestic waste products.

pipe into the opening of the three-way ball valve. Tighten the nut with a wrench.
c. Install the three-way ball valve on the cold
water valve. Please don’t miss the gasket
inside the three-way ball valve during
installation.
d. Connect the cold water hose with the

the cold water supply. Wipe the connections
with a tissue to see if there is leakage. If the
tissue stays dry, it means the three-way ball
valve is installed properly.

2. Install the faucet
Note:
Select an appropriate installation position. The environment where the faucet is
installed should adhere to any appropriate hygiene and sanitation conditions.
Make sure the faucet sits flat on top of the sink or countertop surface.
a. Drill a hole with a diameter of about 25mm. Skip this step if there is already a
hole in the sink or the countertop surface.
b. Install the faucet according to the diagram.
Screw the faucet stem nut all the way up the
faucet stem, and tighten it to secure the faucet.
3. Installing the system
Note:
Please check if there is sucient space for installing the system itself, its accessories,
connections, and for servicing and repair. Under no circumstances should the system
be installed outdoors. The environment where the system is installed should
adhere to any appropriate hygiene and sanitation conditions. Avoid any external
dripping liquids from pipes or drains etc onto the system.

This system should be placed on a stable and at surface. Keep the system away
from heat. It shall not be placed in a place that may have inammable gas leakage.
a. Press down the collets and pull out the plugs
of the water inlet and outlet holes in the back
of the system.
b. Connect the water inlet and the three-way ball valve.
Measure the length of the 1/4" pipe you
need to connect the system and the
three-way ball valve, and cut it accordingly
with a pipe cutter. Insert the other end of
the 1/4" pipe which has been connected
with the three-way ball valve into the water
inlet hole in the back of the system. Use a
clip to secure the pipe at the hole.
Note: The inlet water pressure should be within 0.1-0.4 MPa. If the pressure is too
low, a pressure booster should be installed before the system. If the pressure
is too high, a pressure relief valve should be installed before the system.
The pressure relief valve and extra pressure booster need to be purchased
separately.

Insert one end of the pipe into a quick connect fitting, and connect the quick
connect fitting on the stem of the faucet. Use a clip to secure the pipe. Insert
the other end of the 1/4" pipe into the water outlet hole in the back of the
system until it stops.
