INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation instructions:
1
Ensure the refrigerator is NOT plugged into a
powersupply.
2
Locate a cold water supply/feed only suitable
for a water connection. Tee and tap fitting is
not supplied.
3
Connect the 8” (200mm) 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 ¼” (6mm) tubing to the
outlet of the water filter cartridge as shown in
Diagram2. 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 10” (250mm)).
6
Cut the tubing making sure the ends are square
and clean.
7
Connect the tubing to the faucet connection
and the base of the PRV (white collet) and then
to the faucet as shown in Diagram3. Please
note that the faucet 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 Diagram4.
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 faucet on and run at least 10qt
(10L) of water through. Once complete, turn
isolating faucet off.
!0
Locate desired position for water filter noting
carefully the following points:
O
It is recommended to fit the water filter in a
vertical orientation with the water filter head
at the top. This will minimize water leakage
when replacing cartridge.
O
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 faucet in a cupboard beside the
refrigerator.
O
A minimum clearance of 2½” (64mm) from
the bottom of the filter cartridge is required
to perform cartridgeremoval.
O
Do not screw water filter to refrigerator.
