Using the Water Filtration System and About the Filter Cartridge
The countertop faucet dispenses filtered drinking water when opened. It has
a hand-operated, spring-loaded closed lever to prevent waste. You can keep the
faucet open by pushing upward on the lever to lock it against the faucet spout.
Filter Cartridge Life—Several variables determine how long the cartridges will last
in your Water Filtration system. These include:
How much water you use.
How much sediment, taste and/or odor, lead, or other unwanted substance,
is in the water.
No matter which Water Filtration system you have, you should replace the
cartridges every six months. In extremely poor water supplies, you may notice
the return of the unwanted substance in your water before the six months are up.
In this case the cartridges should be replaced immediately. If the system is also
for lead or chemical contaminant removal, it is MORE IMPORTANT to replace the
cartridges at least every six months.
NOTE: If the water supply contains high amounts of sediments, the carbon filters
may plug prematurely, reducing filtered water flow to the system faucet. Cartridge
replacement is needed to restore flow.
