Maintenance
FLOW CONTROL
The flow control is required for proper operation of the
Reverse Osmosis system. See Fig. 29. The flow control,
located inside the push-in elbow fitting on the drain port of
the system housing, keeps water flowing through the mem-
brane at the required rate. This ensures that the system pro-
duces the best quality product water.
Periodically check the flow control to be sure the small hole
through it is clean and unrestricted.
If the flow control requires service, review the exploded view
in Fig. 29. Assemble and disassemble as shown. If the flow
control remains in the manifold when the push-in elbow fit-
ting is removed, you will need to remove the drain port’s col-
let and o-ring, as shown in the next section, to retrieve it.
CHANGE COLLET AND O-RING
1. Remove the collet and o-ring from the fitting with a small
screwdriver. Do not scratch the internal walls of the collet
port. See Figs. 30 & 31.
2. Clean collet port, lubricate with silicone-based lubricant,
and insert the o-ring seal into the bottom of the port. See
Figs. 30 & 31.
3. Push the collet inward until it locks in place. See Figs. 30
& 31.
CHANGE BATTERY
To change battery, complete the following steps.
1. Remove the screw on the right side of the faucet base.
See Fig. 32.
2. Press the battery housing upwards from the front faucet
base until it releases from the faucet base. See Fig. 32.
3. Replace the battery (CR 2032 or equivalent). Place bat-
tery into the holder with the positive (+) side facing the
back of the holder.
4. When the battery is installed the LED will flash six times
and turn off. This indicates the battery is fully charged.
After the six flashes, the timer enters the 6 month time
cycle. If it repeatedly flashes two times, it is not a fully
charged battery.
5. Re-install the battery housing and firmly tighten the mount-
ing screw. See Fig. 32.
