Precautions
WARNING:
Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.
CAUTION:
The filter must be protected against freezing.
Failure to do so may result in cracking of the filter and water leakage.
NOTE:
• For cold water use only.
• Make certain that installation complies with all state and local laws and regula-
tions.
• After prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a vacation) it is
recommended that the system be flushed thoroughly.
• The disposable filter has a limited service life. Changes in taste, odor,
color, and/or flow of the water being filtered indicate that the cartridge
should be replaced.
Installation
NOTE:
Shut off water supply when replacing filter.
For installations using 1/4" copper or plastic tubing, use the following instructions:
1. Shut off water supply. Select a location for installation on 1/4" OD (outside
diameter) plastic or copper tubing. Filter requires at least three inches behind
appliance. See Fig 1.
NOTE:
Leave at least a 5-foot coil of tubing between appliance side and filter. This
will allow room to pull out the appliance for changing the filter.
2. Cut 1/4" OD tubing where filter will be installed.
3. Measure 9/16" from the inlet tubing end and mark with a pencil. Measure 3/4"
from the outlet tubing end and mark with a pencil. (See Fig 2) See Figure 3 for
inlet/outlet designation.

7. With only the inlet side connected, flush water thru filter into a container for 5
minutes. Wait an hour, and then flush another 5 minutes, or until water runs clear.*
8. Shut off water and then connect the outlet side of the filter to the appliance using the
procedure in step #5. Turn water on and check for leaks.
* NOTE:
Though the filter has been rinsed to remove fine particles of carbon, resettling
of the carbon within the filter can occur. If the first trays of ice become discolored,
discard the ice until clear.
