NOTE: The type of plumbing in your home will determine how you install your Drinking Water System using the Adapta
Valve. Included with your Drinking Water System is one installation kit, which includes all of the fixtures and accessories to
install your Multi-Pure unit below the sink. If you determine that you need fixtures different from those included with
your shipment, please contact Multi-Pure's Customer Relations office at 800-622-9206, extension 175.
Adapta Valve Installation
If your residence has a cold water supply line with a 3/8" or 1/2” slip joint connection, you may use the Adapta Valve
(shipped with your unit) to connect your Drinking Water System to the plumbing. The Adapta Valve assembly (MC930ASBL)
includes:
- Adapta Valve (with shut-off valve attached)
- Tubing Adapter (MC722)
NOTE: When attaching the Adapta Valve to straight pipe threads, use Teflon tape on the threads. Wrap the tape around
the pipe only once.

Operation and Maintenance of Models with Capacity Monitor:
Multi-Pure Drinking Water Systems that are equipped with a capacity monitor let you know when the filter
should be changed. When you turn on your Multi-Pure drinking water faucet, and water flows through the
capacity monitor, the green light on the capacity indicator plate flashes several times to let you know that the
System has not reached its certified capacity. The number of green flashes will decrease as the capacity of
your monitor is used. When it flashes just two times, only 20% of your capacity remains; one time indicates
only 10% of the capacity remains. It is recommended that you order a replacement filter when you reach the
20% capacity level.
A red light will flash alerting you that the capacity of your filter has been fully used and that you should
immediately replace the filter. You also will hear an audio alert (buzzer).
As with all drinking water treatment devices which reduce certain contaminants by mechanical filtration, the capacity of the filter
will vary and is dependent upon type and level of contaminants in your water. It is recommended that a prefilter be installed in
front of models with a capacity monitor when used on water with high levels of particulate matter.
It is recommended that you replace the filter cartridge when the first of the following occurs: a) annually; b) the red light flashes on
the capacity indicator plate, indicating that the unit's rated capacity has been reached; c) the flow rate diminishes; or d) the filter
becomes saturated with bad tastes and odors.
