GENERAL USE
CONDITIONS
Read this Performance Data Sheet and
compare the capabilities of this
refrigerator with your actual water
treatment needs.
DO NOT use this product where water
is microbiologically unsafe or of
unknown quality without adequate
disinfection before or after the
system. Systems certified for cyst
reduction may be used on disinfected
water that may contain filterable
cysts.
Use only with cold water supply.
Check for compliance with the state
and local laws and regulations.
The Amana
®
Clean ‘n Clear™ retractable
water filtration system uses a WF50
replacement cartridge. Timely
replacement of filter cartridge is
essential for performance satisfaction
from this filtration system. Please refer to
the applicable section in this Owner’s
Manual for general operation,
maintenance requirements and trouble
shooting.
This system has been tested according
to ANSI/NSF 42 and 53 for reduction of
the substances listed below. The
concentration of the indicated
substances in water entering the system
was reduced to a concentration less than
or equal to the permissible limit for water
leaving the system, as specified in
ANSI/NSF 42 and 53.
*Tested using a flow rate of 0.75 GPM (2.83 L/min.) and a maximum pressure of 120 psi (827 kPa) under
standard laboratory conditions, however, actual performance may vary. Health Claim Performance tested
and certified by NSF International
** Particle size range classification of test. Particles used were 0.5 –1 microns.
