USING YOUR COUNTERTOP WATER FILTER
♦ Set a glass, cup, pitcher, or other
container under the filter spout.
The spout rotates to any desired
position.
♦ Open the COLD water faucet and
adjust to a medium flow.
♦ Pull the diverter knob outward to
direct water to the filter.
♦ When the container is full of filĆ
tered water, close the cold water
faucet. Then, be sure the diverter
valve has closed (knob inward).
CAUTION: Do not direct hot water
into the countertop filter. Always
be sure the diverter valve knob is inĆ
ward (closed) before opening the
sink hot water faucet.
CAUTION: Do not force the divertĆ
er knob inward while the cold water
faucet is open. Always close the fauĆ
cet first, to prevent damaging the diĆ
verter.
Note: The first time you use the filter,
and whenever you change the carĆ
bon cartridge, discard the first 2-3
glasses of filtered water. The filtered
water may contain some harmless
carbon particles (``fines'') from the
new cartridge.

REPLACING THE CARBON FILTER CARTRIDGE
The replaceable carbon cartridge is
good for up to 1500 gallons of filtered
water, or up to 6 months. If the water
supply to your house is poor quality,
the cartridge may not last that long.
Always replace the cartridge after:
① you notice the return of bad taste
and/or odor in the filtered water.
② 6 months
③ a reduced water flow is noticeable.
