READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
SAFETY INFORMATION
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (continued)
Extended non-use of the Reverse Osmosis system:
■ If the system has not been used for one week or more, open the RO water faucet and allow the system to
drain. Close the RO water faucet and allow the system to regenerate the water supply..
NOTICE: To reduce the risk associated with property damage due to water leakage:
■ Read and follow these instruction before
installation and use of this system.
■ Installation and use MUST comply 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 100 psi
(689 kPa). If your water pressure exceeds 80 psi
(552 kPa), you should install a pressure limiting
valve. Contact a plumbing professional if you are
uncertain how to check your water pressure.
■ Do not install where water hammer conditions may
occur. If water hammer conditions exist, you
should install a water hammer arrester. Contact a
plumbing professional if you are uncertain how to
check for this condition.
■ Where a backflow prevention device is installed on
a water system, a device for controlling pressure
due to thermal expansion should be installed.
■ Do not use a torch or other high temperature
sources near filter system, cartridges, plastic
fittings or plastic plumbing.
■ On plastic fittings, never use pipe sealant or pipe
dope. Use PTFE thread sealing tape only, as pipe
dope properties may deteriorate plastic.
■ Take care 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.
■ Locate the system in such a position as to prevent
it from being struck by other items used in the area
of installation.
■ Ensure that the location will support the weight of
the system when installed and full of water.
■ Ensure all tubing and fittings are secure and free
of leaks.
■ Do not install unit if any collets (parts 14 and 15 on
page 25) are missing. Contact 877.959.8688 if
collets are missing from any fittings to obtain
replacements.
■ Replace the disposable prefilter and postfilter
cartridges every 6 months, at the rated capacity, or
sooner if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.
■ Replace the disposable RO cartridge every 24
months, or sooner if a noticeable reduction in
filtration efficiency occurs.
Recommended installation 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. See parts list to obtain additional materials from GE Appliances.
• Locating the tank on a basement floor, with the faucet at a first floor sink may result in some loss of flow rate and
capacity (approximately 20%). Installing a second tank will improve this performance.
If Reverse Osmosis system is connected to a refrigerator icemaker, do not use copper tubing for the connection
between the Reverse Osmosis system and the refrigerator.
Sanitize upon installation of the Reverse Osmosis system and after servicing inner parts, including replacement of
prefilter, postfilter and Reverse Osmosis cartridge. It is important to have clean hands while handling inner parts of
the system. See the Sanitizing the System section.
This Reverse Osmosis system contains a replaceable treatment component critical for effective reduction of total
dissolved solids. This product water shall be tested periodically to verify that the system is performing satisfactorily.
See the The Water Test Kit section.
BE SURE TO FOLLOW ALL APPLICABLE STATE AND LOCAL CODES.
This system has a lithium battery containing perchlorate. Per California Regulation:
Perchlorate Material – Special handling may apply. See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
