SAFETY INFORMATION

Be careful to keep this safety information. Please read this information to prevent property loss and ensure safety.

DANGER:  If not observed, serious injury or even death may occur as a result.

WARNING:  If not observed, serious physical injury or property damage may occur as a result.

Read all the instructions before using or installing the Coral UC300/UC100.

Never disassemble, repair or reconstruct the filter head housing. This may cause the product to fail.

Never unscrew the filters while the product is in use. This may cause failure due to high water pressure, or it may cause a water leak.

Do not install near radiators. This may cause fire, or the product could be damaged, resulting

in leakage.

CAUTION:  If not observed, minor physical injury or property damage may occur as a result.

For California Residents: CR2032 batteries contain Perchlorate Material - special handling may apply. Visit http://www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate for more information.

Use or place the unit on a level area and do not apply force to the unit. This may cause physical injury and/or damage to the product that may void your warranty.

Turn the water supply valve off if the filter system will not be used for an extended period of time.

Especially during very cold weather, the water pressure may rise and may cause a water leak.

Replace the filters according to their scheduled replacement intervals. If one or more of the filters are exhausted, the purification quality will diminish.

When replacing the filter or moving the product, do not pull on the water supply hose. The water supply hose may become detached, damaged, or the quick connection coupling may be weakened.

If a water leak occurs while using the product, or the area around the product is wet,

turn the water supply valve off immediately.

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT “TDS METERS” AND TESTERS

Q) When I use a Total Dissolved Particle (TDS) reader to test my water after it goes through the Coral Undercounter Water Filtration System, why don't the levels of dissolved particles go down or decrease? I don’t think the product is working.

The Coral Undercounter Water Filtration System is not designed to remove beneficial minerals from your drinking water. These minerals that occur naturally are a healthy part of your drinking water and should remain. The Brondell Coral Undercounter Water Filtration System is designed to dramatically reduce water-soluble harmful contaminants, including industrial chemicals, pesticides, herbicides, turbidity, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and microorganisms, most of which cannot be "read" with a TDS reader.

Since these harmful components are water-soluble, they cannot be picked up by a simple TDS meter. Contrary to its name (Total Dissolved Solids or TDS Meter), these inexpensive products cannot detect most harmful water-soluble contaminants.

There is a major misconception that low TDS readings mean healthy water and that is simply not always true.

The best method for testing the performance of a water filtration device is to have a nationally recognized independent organization, such as WQA (Water Quality Association) or NSF International, test and certify the products. The certified data is then available in a Performance Data Sheet, which you should request from the

manufacturer. For more clarification of what the Coral Undercounter Water Filtration System does remove from your water, please see our Certified Performance Data Sheets on pages 21-23.

PRODUCT INSTALLATION

Do not install the Filter Head Connection Asssembly further than 12 feet away from either the water supply valve, or the Indicator Faucet.

Avoid unnecessary slack in the supply hoses when connecting to the water supply, Filter Head Connection Assembly, or Indicator Faucet.

Do not install in direct sunlight, or a place where it will be directly exposed to freezing temperatures.

STEP 1:  T-VALVE INSTALLATION

Be sure to install the T-Valve on the cold water supply line. Running hot water through the Coral Water Filtration System will damage the filters.

1. Close the cold water supply valve. Place a bucket, or similar item, underneath the valve to catch any water that may spill out during installation.

2. Unscrew the hose that connects the cold water supply valve to the existing tap water faucet.

3. Ensure the rubber washer is inside the T-Valve, and then screw the T-Valve Adapter onto the cold water supply valve.

NOTE: If the water supply valve is larger than the 3/8” connection on the T-Valve, use the included 1/2”Valve Adapters with Rubber Washers to connect the T-Valve and the water supply hose.

4. Screw the cold water supply hose to the top of the T-Valve. Be sure to keep the water supply valve closed.

STEP 5:  CONNECTING THE TUBING

Using "Quick Connectors"

Tube connections on the T-Valve, Filter Head Connection Assembly, and Indicator Faucet are all of the “Quick Connect” variety. The steps below illustrate how to connect and disconnect the Tubes from these connectors.

a. Push the Tube into the Collette. The Collette is a collar that

 a

provides a secure fit for the Tube and prevents water leaks.

 

b.Push the Tube in until it stops. The Tube will be secure, and resistant to tugs or pulls. The Collette will be rigid and raised slightly from the connector housing.

c.To disconnect the Tube, push down and hold the Collette first, and then pull the Tube out gently.

FILTERS & FILTER CHANGE INDICATOR

FILTERS

The filters are critical to the performance of the Coral UC Water Filtration system, and it is important to replace all of the filters on a regular basis. If any of the filters are overused beyond the recommended service life, the performance of the water filtration device can deteriorate. Do not

miss the filter replacement cycle or use non-compatible filters as this can affect system performance or damage the unit.

Contact Brondell at 888-542-3355, or visit us at www.brondell.com to order replacement filters.

FILTER CHANGE INDICATOR

The LED filter change indicator in the faucet works by tracking both time and water flow from the Coral UC system.

UC300 – When 12 months have elapsed or 600 gallons of water has been filtered through the system     (whichever comes first), the LED will flash red when dispensing water instead of flashing blue.

UC100 – When 6 months have elapsed or 300 gallons of water has been filtered through the system     (whichever comes first), the LED will flash red when dispensing water instead of flashing blue.

When the faucet LED indicator begins to flash red, it’s now time to change the filters and reset the faucet indicator by replacing the battery.

A new battery is always included with the UF-35, or UF-15 filter replacement set.

1 These harmonized values were agreed upon by representatives of USEPA and Health Canada for the purpose of

 

evaluating products to the requirements of this Standard.

 

2 Influent challenge levels are average influent concentrations determined in surrogate qualification testing.

 

3 Maximum product water level was not observed but was set at the detection limit of the analysis.

 

4 Maximum product water level is set at a value determined in surrogate qualification testing.

 

5 Chemical reduction percent and maximum product water level calculated at chloroform 95% breakthrough

 

point as determined in surrogate qualification testing.

 

6 The surrogate test results for heptachlor epoxide demonstrated a 98% reduction. These data were used to

 

calculate an upper occurrence concentration which would produce a maximum product water level at the MCL.
