PREPARING FOR USE
STEP 1: FLUSHING THE SYSTEM
1. Turn the provided faucet on all the way for 10 minutes to purge all the air out of the system. It is
normal for some water to flow out of the faucet during this first purge.
2. After the initial 10 minute purge, turn the provided faucet off and let the system run for 40
minutes to allow the water tank to fill for the first time.
3. After 40 minutes, turn the faucet on all the way once more for 10 minutes (or until the tank
empties) to flush the filters and the water tank.
4. Turn the faucet off.
5. The tank will fill again in approximately 40 minutes, and then filtered water will be ready to drink.
6. Record installation date on the filter change sticker chart and place sticker inside the front cover,
under the sink cabinet on the door, or another safe accessible place.
During the initial purging of the system, you will hear air clearing out of the system
through the faucet along with some spurts of water. This is NOT a malfunction and is
normal operation during the very first use or when completing a filter change.
