FIlter CartrIdge rePlaCement

The cartridge's life depends on the water volume used and the substances
in the water. Normally the cartridge should be changed at intervals of 90
days or less. Replace it sooner if the water pressure at the faucet begins
to drop noticeably or if you notice changes in the taste, color, or flow of
the filtered water.
NOTICE: Certain types of harmless bacteria will attack cellulose material.
Cartridges containing cellulose, such as TO1 and RS1 may seem to
disintegrate, produce a "sewer" or "rotten egg" odor, or form a black
precipitate due to bacteria. If this happens, consult OMNIFILTER Customer
Service for advice.
A) (1) Turn water off by rotating handle on top of housing in
clockwise direction.
NOTE: This will shut off all water flow within the household. Be
sure to fill a bucket of water first so you may clean housing after
it has been removed. (2) Remove bottom of housing by turning
clockwise.
B)
Locate and remove large o-ring
aside. Discard used cartridge (4). Rinse out bottom of housing and
fill 1/3-full with water. Add 2 tablespoons of bleach and scrub cap
and bottom of housing with non-abrasive sponge or cloth. Rinse
thoroughly. Lubricate o-ring (3) with clean silicone or plumber's
grease. Insert o-ring back into groove and smooth into place with
finger.
NOTE: This step is important to ensure proper housing seal. Make
sure o-ring is seated level in the groove.
Insert new cartridge (4) over standpipe in bottom of housing.
C) (5) Screw bottom of housing onto the cap and hand-tighten.
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. Make certain cap standpipe slips into
cartridge. (6) Slowly turn handle on housing 1/4-turn counter-
clockwise to allow filter to fill with water. (7) Depress red pressure-
relief button to release trapped air, then rotate handle fully to
"ON" position. Flush cartridge for 15 minutes before use. Check
for leaks before leaving installation
