The retractable water filtration system uses a RWFFR replacement
cartridge. Timely replacement of filter cartridge is essential for
performance satisfaction from this filtration system. Please refer to the
applicable section of your Use & Care Guide for general operation,
maintenance requirements and troubleshooting.
This system has been tested according to ANSI/NSF 42 and 53 for
reduction of the substance listed above. 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.
