INSTALLATION, OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL

Multi-Pure

Water Guardian Drinking Water

Appliance

The Multi-Pure Water Guardian Drinking Water Appliance, Model MPADC is designed for use on the countertop next to your sink. You can connect it to your existing faucet using the high-tech chrome diverter valve that allows you to easily switch from filtered to unfiltered water.

NOTE: The filter cartridge is factory-installed inside the unit housing.

Step 1 Determine a desired location on your countertop for the

unit so that the hose can easily be attached to your faucet.

Step 2 Inspect the unit housing to confirm that the housing top

is securely connected to the bottom. If necessary, use the hand tool, shipped with the unit, to tighten the top.

a. With the housing in an upright position, slide the hand

tool over the top so that the ridges on the tool fit into the grooves on the housing top.

b. Applying steady pressure, turn clockwise to tighten.

Hold the base in place on the countertop while turning the top.

c. Tighten sufficiently so that the o-ring at the bottom of

the top is not visible. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN.

II. Inspect the Housing

NOTE: The Water Guardian Drinking Water Appliance is easy to install on most standard faucets. And, it includes a feature that makes it easy to switch from filtered to unfiltered water.

Step 4 Remove the aerator or screen from the end of your faucet. The water at your sink should

be turned off.

Step 5 Attach the Diverter Valve directly to the faucet spout. If the threads of the Diverter Valve

don't match the threads of your faucet, use one of the adapters provided with your unit.

a. Faucets with Outside Threads: For most faucets with outside threads, the diverter

valve can be attached directly to the faucet. However, if the Diverter Valve is smaller than your faucet, attach the adapter with inside threads directly to your faucet and then attach the Diverter Valve to the adapter.

b. Faucets with Inside Threads: If your faucet has threads on the inside, attach one of the two adapters with out-

side threads (choose the appropriate size for your faucet) directly to your faucet and then attach the Diverter Valve to the adapter.

c. Faucets with No Threads: If your faucet has no threads, you will need to contact your independent dealer.

d. Faucets with Odd Sized Threads: If your faucet does not fit any of the adapters provided with your unit, please

contact your independent dealer.

e. Faucets requiring more clearance for the connection, such as sprayer hose faucets, would use a long adapter

(MC257). See Step 5.e. on next page for installation instructions.

hose into the inlet and outlet ports. a. Insert the larger hose into the bottom port (Inlet connector) by slowly

pushing the stem straight into the connector as far as it will go. Give a second push to confirm that the stem is fully inserted.

b. Insert the smaller hose into the top port (Outlet connector) by slowly

pushing the stem straight into the connector as far as it will go. Give a second push to confirm that the stem is fully inserted.

Congratulations, your Multi-Pure Water Guardian Drinking Water Appliance has been connected to your faucet and you are now ready to start-up the unit, as follows:

Step 6 Using a paper towel or cloth, dry off all connections. Also, dry off the drinking water unit.

Step 7 Ensure that all connections are tight (CAUTION: DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN).

Step 8 Before starting the flushing and start-up process, unscrew and remove the aerator

(screen) from the filtered water spout. Rinse out the aerator to remove any debris that may have collected on the two screens inside it. You will reconnect the aerator upon completion of the filter flushing process.

Step 9 To purge all air from the unit, turn the housing up

side down and then turn on the water. Push the bypass lever of the diverter to start the flow of water through the unit. Allow the water to run through the unit and filtered water spout for one minute. Then close the bypass lever and shut off the water at the faucet.

Step 10 Turn the unit right side up and place it on your counter and check all connections to

confirm that there are no leaks.

. Step 11 Turn on the water and push the bypass lever of the diverter valve to again start the flow

of water through the unit.

Step 12 Allow water to run through the unit to waste for approximately 25 minutes to fully flush

the filter and charge the carbon.

Step 13 Push the bypass lever inward to shutoff the flow of water through the Aqua Dome

System. Then shut off the water at your faucet and check for leaks.

Step 14 Lastly, reconnect the aerator to the filtered water spout.

Congratulations, you have completed the installation.
