If the system has not been used for one week or
more, open the ROwater faucet and allow the
system to drain. Closethe ROwater faucet and
allow the system to regenerate the water supply.
I Recommendedinstallation is under the sink.
However,the unit can be installed in a remote
location, up to 20 feet away from the sink.
, However,additional materials will be required.
Seeparts list to obtain additional materials
from GE.
, Locatingthe tank on a basement floor,with the
faucet at a first floor sink may result in some lossof
flow rate and capacity (approximately20%).
Installinga second tank will improve this
performance.An RVKITcan be used.
I If ReverseOsmosissystem is connected to a
refrigerator icemaker,a specialicemaker connection
kit is required (RVKIT).Do not use copper tubing for
the connection between the ReverseOsmosis
system and the refrigerator.
I Sanitizeupon installation of the ReverseOsmosis
system and after servicinginner parts,including
replacement of prefilter,postfilter and Reverse
Osmosiscartridge. It isimportant to have clean
hands while handling inner parts of the system.
Seethe Sanitizingthe ReverseOsmosisSystem
section.
I This ReverseOsmosissystem contains a replaceable
treatment component critical for effective reduction
of total dissolvedsolids.This product water shall be
tested periodicallyto verify that the system is
performing satisfactorily. Seethe TheWater TestKit
section.
BE SURETO FOLLOW ALL APPLICABLE STATE
AND LOCAL CODES.
CAUTION: TOreduce the risk associated
with property damage due to water leakage:
, Readand follow these instruction before installation
and use of this system.
, Installationand use IvlUSTcomply with all state and
local plumbing codes.
, Protect from freezing, remove filter cartridge when
temperatures are expected to drop below 40° F
(4.4° C).
Do not install systems in areas where ambient
temperatures may go above 110° F(43.3° C).
Do not install if water pressure exceeds 120 psi (827
kPa).If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi (552 kPa),
you must install a pressure limiting valve. Contact a
plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to
check your water pressure.
Do not installwhere water hammer conditions may
occur. If water hammer conditions exist,you must
install a water hammer arrester. Contact a
plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to
check for this condition.
Where a back flow prevention device is installed on
a water system, a device for controlling pressure
due to thermal expansion must be installed.
CAUTION: TOreduce the risk associated
with property damage due to water leakage:
Do not use a torch or other high temperature
sources near filter system, cartridges, plastic fittings
or plastic plumbing.
Onplastic fittings, never use pipe sealant or pipe
dope. Use PTFEthread tape only, pipe dope
properties may deteriorate plastic.
Takecare when using pliers or pipe wrenches to
tighten plastic fittings, as damage may occur if over
tightening occurs.
Do not install in direct sunlight or outdoors.
Do not install near water pipes which will be in path
of a drilling tool when selecting the position to
mount the bracket.
Mount filter in such a position as to prevent it from
being struck by other items used in the area of
installation.
Ensurethat the location and fasteners will support
the weight of the system when installed and full of
water.
Ensureall tubing and fittings are secure and free of
leaks.
Do not install unit if any collets (parts 27 and 28 on
page 24) are missing. Contact 800.626.2002(U.S.),
800.663.6060(Canada-English),
800.362-3869 (Canada-French)if collets are missing
from any fittings to obtain replacements.
Replacethe disposable pre and post filter cartridges
every 6 months, at the rated capacity or sooner if a
noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.
Replacethe disposable ROcartridge every 24
months or sooner if a noticeable reduction in
filtration efficiency occurs.
