System Acvaon and Inspecon
1. Check all tubing connecons to ensure they are rmly seated. CHECK TO SEE THAT THE CARTRIDGE RETAINER CLIP IS
PROPERLY ENGAGED AND LOCKED. Failure to keep the retaining clip in place will result in accidental leaks and ooding.
2. Open the dispensing faucet at the sink. Close the tank shut-o valve. Make sure the angle stop valve for the incoming
water is open. Open the small feed shut-o valve on feed valve assembly.
3. Observe all tubing and connecons for several minutes to detect any leaks. In approximately 5 minutes, (assuming
normal feed water pressure) the dispensing faucet should begin dripping.
4. Allow the faucet to run for up to 15 minutes, then close the faucet.
5. Check for leaks at all connecons.
6. Open the tank shut-o valve.
Inial Flushing Procedure
1. Before the system can be used for drinking water producon it must be adequately ushed. Each reservoir tank is
dosed with a small amount of powdered sanizer before shipment, typically a chlorinang agent, in order to ensure tank
internal cleanliness. Also, the carbon lter cartridge will release a small amount of carbon nes during the rst tankful of
ow. This ushing procedure will allow any sanizer or carbon nes to pass from the system.
2. Inial tank lling will take approximately one hour (based on average feed pressure). When the tank is full, the water
pressure will have risen to the point where the automac shut-o valve inside the system will stop the feed ow through
the system. Actuaon of the automac shut-o valve can be determined by either checking for a lack of brine ow to the
drain saddle, or by listening very closely near the dispensing faucet for absence of water ow sound though the air gap.
When the tank has lled for the rst me, it should be le undisturbed for at least 8 hours to ensure proper sanizaon.
3. Aer 8 hours has elapsed, open the dispensing faucet fully and allow the product water to run out to drain at maximum
ow. The inial discharge will be dark with the bulk of the carbon parcle wash out. There may also be the scent of chlo-
rinated water from the sanizing agent. When the ow has diminished to a fast drip or small stream, close the dispensing
faucet.
4. Fill and ush the tank at least three mes prior to use. If necessary, repeat unl the chlorinaon scent has disappeared.
It is important that the ush be done at maximum ow (e.g. the tank must be full) to assist in rapid wash out. Aer this
ushing procedure the system is ready for normal use.
