EXPLANATION OF SIGNAL WORD CONSEQUENCES
W W ARNING
CAUTION
To reduce the risk associated with choking:
• Do not allow children under 3 years of age to have access to small parts during the installation of this product.
To reduce the risk associated with ingestion of contaminants:
• Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or
after the system.
To reduce the risk associated with a hazardous voltage due to an installer drilling through existing electric wiring
or water pipes in the area of installation:
• Do not install near electric wiring or piping which may be in the path of a drilling tool when selecting the position
to mount the fi lter bracket.
To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
• Read and follow Use Instructions before installation and use of this system.
• Installation and Use MUST comply with all state and local plumbing codes.
• Protect from freezing, remove fi lter cartridge when temperatures are expected to drop below 40°F (4.4°C).
• Do not install systems in areas where ambient temperatures may go above 110° F (43.3° C).
• Do not install on hot water supply lines. The maximum operating water temperature of this fi lter system is 100°F
(37.8°C).
• Do not install if water pressure exceeds 125 psi (862 kPa). If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi (552 kPa), you
must install a pressure limiting valve. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check your
water pressure.
• Do not install where water hammer conditions may occur. If water hammer conditions exist you must install a
water hammer arrester. Contact a plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to check for this condition.
• Where a backfl ow prevention device is installed on a water system, a device for controlling pressure due to
thermal expansion must be installed.
• Do not use a torch or other high temperature sources near fi lter system, cartridges, plastic fi ttings or plastic
plumbing.
• On plastic fi ttings, never use pipe sealant or pipe dope. Use PTFE thread tape only, pipe dope properties may
deteriorate plastic.
• Take care when using pliers or pipe wrenches to tighten plastic fi ttings, as damage may occur if overtightening
occurs.
• Do not install in direct sunlight or outdoors.
• Mount fi lter in such a position as to prevent it from being struck by other items used in the area of installation.
• Ensure that the location and fasteners will support the weight of the system.
• Ensure all tubing and fi ttings are secure and free of leaks.
• The disposable fi lter cartridge MUST be replaced ever 6 months, at the rated capacity or if a noticeable reduc-
tion in fl ow rate occurs.
• Failure to follow instructions will void warranty.
• Allow a minimum of 3" (7.6 cm) clear space under fi lter to facilitate cartridge change.
• Install with the inlet and outlet ports as labeled. Make sure not to reverse connections.
• Do not crimp copper tubing.
