Installation instructions
Installation instructions:
1
Ensure the refrigerator is not plugged into a power supply.
2
Locate isolation tap for water connection – cold water feed
only (dishwasher or sink mixer taps). Tee and tap fitting not
supplied.
3
Connect the 200 mm (8”) blue tubing to the outlet of the
PRV (blue collet) and the inlet connection of the water filter
cartridge as shown in Diagram 1. Gently pull on both ends
to ensure it is locked.
4
Connect the white 6 mm (¼”) tubing to the outlet of the
water filter cartridge as shown in Diagram 2. Gently pull to
ensure it is locked.
5
Measure the required length of tubing to run from the PRV
to the water connection point (no less than 250 mm (10”)).
6
Cut the tubing making sure the ends are square and clean.
7
Connect the tubing to the tap connection and the base
of the PRV (white collet) and then to the tap as shown
in Diagram 3. Take care not to over-tighten the tap
connection. Please note that the tap connection supplied
should fit most installation situations.
8
Connect one locking key to each side of the water filter
cartridge in between the cartridge and the locking collet
as shown in Diagram 4.
9
To flush the water filter of any trapped air, harmless
carbon fines and to also check for leaks, aim the end of
the tubing into a bucket, turn isolating tap on and run at
least 10 L (10 qt) of water through. Once complete, turn
isolating tap off.
10
Locate desired position for water filter noting carefully
the following points:
It is recommended to fit the water filter in a vertical
orientation with the water filter head at the top. This
will minimise water leakage when replacing cartridge.
Ensure the filter is in a convenient location to access
every 6 months for replacement. We suggest that
this location is beside the water filter supply tap in a
cupboard beside the refrigerator.
A minimum clearance of 64 mm (2 ½”) from the
bottomof the filter cartridge is required to perform
cartridge removal.
Do not screw the water filter to the refrigerator.
