PARTS INCLUDED:
Filter system with lter cartridges
Installation hardware (mounting screws, saddle valve, ttings)
6.35 mm (1/4-inch) tubing
Lead-free faucet
Tools and Materials Required:
Safety Glasses
Hand or electric drill
(cordless recommended)
File
Phillips head screwdriver
2 adjustable wrenches
Tube cutters or utility knife
If sink does not have hole for separate faucet:
Center punch – 19mm (3/4-inch) drill bit
PRECAUTIONS:
Protect lters against freezing, which can cause cracking of the lter and water leakage.
The rubber O-ring provides the water-tight seal between the cap and the bottom of the housing.
It is important that the O-ring be properly seated in the groove below the threads of the housing or a
water leak could occur.
To prevent costly repairs or possible water damage, the sump of plastic housings must be replaced
every ve years for clear, and ten years for opaque. If sump is older than recommended, replace
immediately. Date sump for reference and indicate replacement date.
NOTE:
For cold water use only.
Make certain that installation complies with all local laws and regulations.
After prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a vacation) it is recommended that the system be
ushed thoroughly. Let water run for 5-6 minutes before using.
The lter cartridges used with this system have a limited service life. Changes in taste, odor, and/or
ow of the water being ltered indicate that the cartridges should be replaced.
9333 Nanotechnology Under Counter Water Purification System 2
INSTALLATION
For standard under-sink installation on 10 mm (3/8-inch) cold water line.
Please read all instructions and precautions before installing and using your ltration System.
Numbered diagrams correspond with numbered steps.
1. Installing the Saddle Valve (diagram 1)
Use of a hand drill is recommended. To protect
yourself from serious injury or fatal shock when
using an electric drill, be sure the drill and the out-
let it is plugged into are properly grounded. When
using a drill, follow the manufacturer’s guidelines
and procedures.
NOTE: Saddle valve must be installed on a 51 mm
(2-inch) long, straight-walled section of 10-22 mm
(3/8-inch to 7/8-inch) steel, brass, copper, or
PVC pipe.
(A) Turn o cold water supply and turn on nearest
faucet before starting installation. Place a tray or
towels under the cold water line to catch excess
water.
(B) Drill a 3 mm (1/8-inch) hole in cold water line.
Remove any burrs with sandpaper or le.
(C) Turn handle on the saddle valve to expose
lance no more than 5 mm (3/16-inch) beyond
black rubber gasket.
(D) Place valve body over hole in cold water line
so lance ts into hole.
(E) Attach back plate of clamp and tighten bolts
evenly and rmly so brackets are parallel.
(F) Turn valve handle clockwise to closed position
and leave closed until installation is complete.
2. Selecting the Faucet Location (diagram 2)
NOTE: The drinking water faucet should be posi-
tioned with function, convenience, and appear-
ance in mind. An adequate at area is required
to allow faucet base to rest securely. The faucet
ts through a 19mm (3/4-inch) hole. Most sinks
have pre-drilled 35 or 38mm (1-inch) diameter
holes that may be used for faucet. If installation of
these pre-drilled holes cannot be used or are in an
inconvenient location, it will be necessary to drill a
19mm (3/4-inch) hole in the sink to accommodate
the faucet.
9333 Nanotechnology Under Counter Water Purification System 3
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRILL THROUGH AN ALL-
PORCELAIN SINK. If you have an all-porcelain sink,
mount the faucet in pre-drilled sprayer hole or drill through
countertop next to sink.
When drilling through a countertop make sure the
area below the drilled area is free of wiring and piping.
Make certain there is ample room to make the proper con-
nections to the bottom of the faucet. Do not drill through a
countertop that is more than 25mm (1-inch) thick.
DO NOT ATTEMPT to drill through a tiled, marble,
granite or similar countertop. Consult a plumber or the
countertop manufacturer for advice or assistance.
(A) Line bottom of sink with newspaper to prevent metal
shavings, parts, or tools from falling down drain.
(B) Place masking tape over the area to be drilled to pre-
vent scratches if drill bit slips.
(C) Mark hole with center punch. Use a 6mm (l/4-inch)
drill bit for a pilot hole, then, using a 13mm (3/4- inch) drill
bit or hole saw, drill a hole completely through the sink.
Smooth rough edges with a le.
3. Mounting the Faucet (diagram 3)
(A) Remove wing nut (C) and metal washer (B) from the
threaded shaft of the faucet. Leave the black rubber
washer (A) on the threaded shaft.
(B) Slide the threaded shaft of the faucet into drilled hole.
(C) From under the sink, slide the metal washer on and
thread on the wing nut. Tighten wing nut by hand until
tight. It may be necessary to have a second person hold
the faucet while tightening the wing nut.
NOTE: Do not over tighten the wing nut. Hand tighten
only. Do not use pliers or wrench to tighten.
4. Mounting the System (diagram 4)
(A) Center system between water supply adapter and
drinking water faucet.
NOTE: Allow 38 mm (1.5 inches) clearance below system
to enable lter cartridge changes.
(B) Install mounting screws at least 380 mm (15-inches)
from cabinet oor and 235 mm (9 1/4 inches) apart. Leave
enough space [approximately 13 mm (l/2-inch) between
the head of the screw and the wall to slip system onto
screws.
(C) Place system over screws on wall and slide sideways.
Tighten screws.
9333 Nanotechnology Under Counter Water Purification System 4
5. Connecting the Faucet (diagram 5)
CAUTION: Do not over-tighten compression nut. Use
caution not to bend or crimp tubes when securing.
(A) Locate compression nuts in installation kit and fau-
cet package.
(B) Attach compression nuts to faucet stem and Eec-
tive Life Indicator (ELI) and hand tighten. Then loosen
compression nut one full turn.
NOTE: If the compression nut should come apart, refer-
ence diagram 5A for correct reassembly.
6. Attaching Tube (diagram 6)
(A) Attach tube to compression nut on faucet stem by
inserting tube into the compression nut opening. Gently
push the tubing until it comes to a stop.
CAUTION: Tube must be fully inserted in the compress
on tting base to the tube stop on the faucet stem and
on the outlet stem of the ELI.
(B) Turn the nut hand tight.
(C) Wrench tighten the nut 1 ½ to 2 turns.
NOTE: All nuts must be retightened when the system
reaches projected operating temperature.
NOTE: A squeaking sound when tightening the nut is
normal. If ttings are removed, Teon® tape must be
used for pipe threaded connections.
NOTE: Compression nut should come preassembled
with ferrules inside. If nut should come apart,
see gure 5A for proper reassembly.
(D) Determine the length of tubing needed from the fau-
cet to the ELI and cut the tubing. A slight sag in the lines
will allow for some ease in installation. Insert the tubing
into the compression nut on the ELI. Repeat steps 6B
and 6C.
7. Connecting the Saddle Valve (diagram 7)
(A) Determine the length of plastic tubing needed to
connect the inlet (left) side of the lter with the saddle
valve. Be sure to allow enough tubing to prevent kinking
and cut the tubing squarely. Slide brass compression
nut onto tubing, followed by plastic ferrule. The long,
tapered end of the ferrule should face towards the end
of the tubing. Place insert into end of tubing.
(B) Insert tubing into saddle valve and hand-tighten
compression nut. Using a wrench tighten nut
1 to 1 ½ turns.
9333 Nanotechnology Under Counter Water Purification System 5
8. Connecting the Saddle Valve (diagram 8)
(A) Locate Compression Nut in installation kit pack-
age and attach to inlet tting. Tighten the nut hand
tight and then loosen one full turn.
(B) Repeat steps 6B and 6C.
9. Connecting Inlet Line to System (diagram 9)
(A) Locate Compression Nut in installation kit pack-
age and attach to inlet tting. Tighten the nut hand
tight and then loosen one full turn.
(B) Repeat steps 6B and 6C.
10. Setting the Eective Life Indicator
The Eective Life Indicator is the black dial located
on the center of the mounting bracket. Each white
mark on the dial represents 378.5L (100 gallons).
The START mark represents 4542.5L (1,200 gal-
lons); however, the lter cartridges have an eective
life of 3785.4L (1,000 gallons), so you will need to
move the dial clockwise so that the indicator arrow
lines up with the 3785.4L (1,000 gallons) mark
(2 marks past The START mark). Important – set
Eective Life Indicator to 1000 gallons after
each new lter replacement.
NOTE: To prevent indicator malfunctions, only
move the dial when the system is depressurized.
11. Putting the System into Operation
(A) Slowly turn on cold water supply.
(B) Press red pressure-relief button on top
of system.
C) Make sure Eective Life Indicator is set at
3785.4L (1,000 gallons).
(D) Rotate base of drinking water faucet count-
er-clockwise to “ON” position. Allow water to run
for 5 minutes to ush air and carbon nes from lter
cartridges. Check system for leaks before leaving
installation.
NOTE: A drinking water cartridge may contain car-
bon nes (very ne black powder). After installation,
ush the cartridge for 5 minutes to remove the nes
before using the water. It is recommended that you
run the tap at least 20 seconds prior to using water
for drinking or cooking purposes.
9333 Nanotechnology Under Counter Water Purification System 6
NOTE: Initially, ltered water may appear cloudy.
If you set a glass of water on a level surface, you
should be able to watch the cloudiness disappear
from the bottom of the glass upwards. This harm-
less cloudiness results from the release of trapped
air within the cartridge and will disappear within a
few weeks after installation.
INSTALLATION IS NOW COMPLETE.
Filter Cartridge Replacement
Filter cartridges will last about 3785 liters (1,000
gallons) or twelve months before they need to be
replaced. Filter cartridge life varies depending on
lter life, usage, and/or water conditions. Changes
in taste, color, and ow of the water being ltered
indicate that the cartridge should be replaced.
Read all instructions before replacing lter car-
tridges.
1. Turn o cold water supply to system and press
red pressure-relief button.
2. Unscrew and remove bottom of lter housing.
Locate and remove large O-ring, wipe clean of
lubricant, and set aside. Repeat for second and
third housings.
3. Discard used lter cartridges. Using a
non-abrasive sponge or cloth, scrub the bottom
of lter housings, O-ring grooves, and caps with
dish soap and warm water. Rinse thoroughly. Fill
bottom of each housing 1/3 full with water. Add
14.7ML (1 tablespoon) of household bleach and
scrub to disinfect.
CAUTION: Read “WARNING” information on the
bleach container before using its contents.
4. Lubricate O-ring with clean silicone grease.
Insert each O-ring in groove and press into place.
NOTE: This step is important to ensure a proper
housing seal. Make certain each O-ring is seated
level in its groove or a leak may occur.
5. Screw bottom of housings with bleach water
onto caps without lter cartridges and hand-tight-
en. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.
6. Turn on water supply. Let faucet run for about
10 seconds, then turn o faucet and let stand for
20-30 minutes.
7. Turn on faucet and allow bleach water to run
out (about 3-5 minutes).
8. Turn o water supply to system and press pres-
sure-relief button. Remove bottom of housings
and empty out water.
9. Insert each lter cartridge in bottom of appro-
priate lter housing.
10. Screw bottom of housings onto caps and
hand-tighten. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. Make
certain cap standpipe slips into cartridge.
11. Reset Eective Life Indicator to 1000 gallons
(see instructions under “Setting the Eective Life
Indicator” on Page 6).
12. Turn on water to system and press pres-
sure-relief button. Let faucet run for 5 minutes
to remove trapped air and carbon nes. Check
system for leaks before leaving installation.
NOTE: A drinking water cartridge may contain
carbon nes (very ne black powder). After instal-
lation, ush the cartridge for 5 minutes to remove
the nes before using the water. It is recommend-
ed that you run the tap at least 20 seconds prior
to using water for drinking or cooking purposes.
NOTE: Initially, ltered water may appear cloudy.
If you set a glass of water on a level surface, you
should be able to watch the cloudiness disappear
from the bottom of the glass upwards. This harm-
less cloudiness results from the release of trapped
air within the cartridge and will disappear within a
few weeks after installation.

Troubleshooting:
Leaks between cap and bottom of lter housing:
Turn o water supply and turn on drinking water
faucet to release pressure in system. Remove bot-
tom of housing. Clean O-ring and O-ring groove
(located directly beneath threads of housing). Lu-
bricate O-ring with silicone grease and replace se-
curely into groove. Screw bottom of housing onto
cap and hand-tighten. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.
Turn on water supply and check for leaks.
Leaks on system inlet /outlet connections:
Turn o water supply and turn on drinking water
faucet to release pressure in system. Remove
tubing from tting and make sure end of tubing is
cut squarely and free of burrs. Reinsert tubing into
tting, making sure to push tubing to a hard stop.
Hand tight compression nut rst, then tighten 1 to
1 1/2 turns for new compression nut. Tighten only
1/2 to 1 turn with wrench for previously tightened
compression nut.
Leaks on faucet / tubing connection:
Turn o water supply, then turn on drinking water
faucet to release pressure in system. Loosen and
remove compression nut tting on faucet stem.
Make sure tubing is inserted rmly into end of
faucet stem, then retighten compression nut with
ngers until secure. Turn on saddle valve, then
turn o faucet to check for leaks.
NOTE: If leaks persist, or if there are other leaks
on system, turn o water supply.
Low Water Flow:
1. Check ow at faucet. The # 9333 system
should ll a gallon jug in approximately 2 minutes.
Flow rates will vary with individual household
water pressure.
2. Check lter cartridge installation. Make certain
all lter cartridges are properly oriented in lter
housings.
