Elbow Adapter Connection:
1. Connect the blue faucet tubing to the Elbow Adapter (#3) that you previously
connected to the OUTLET port.
2. Using wire cutters or knife, cut (square cut) the tip end off of the blue plastic tube con-
nected to the faucet. Do not use scissors.
3. The tubing must be fully inserted in the adapter / switch. It is recommended that you
measure and mark the end of the tubing that you are inserting in the adapter to assure
that it is inserted as far as it will go. The 1/4” blue tubing should be inserted about 5/8”.
4. Push the tubing through the small hole in the adapter until you feel resistance; at this
point, the tubing is not fully inserted. Then push firmly until the tubing is inserted as far
as it will go (see Item 3 above for measurements).
5. Pull to check that the tubing is secure.
Insert tubing and push until you
feel resistance -- at this point,
the tubing is not fully inserted.
Push firmly until the tubing is
inserted as far as it will go.

The filter cartridge is shipped outside of the unit housing (in most cases) to protect your
filter and drinking water system from damage during shipping. Be sure to insert the filter
cartridge into the drinking water system housing before finalizing the installation. First,
remove the plastic wrapper and instruction wrap from around the filter.

With the housing in an upright position, open the unit by unscrewing the black knob on
