1.A municipal tap water connection is necessary on the location where the filter is installed.
2.The installation location should be clean and sanitary, with no pollution, no direct sunshine; no flammable or combustible or electrical equipment, protected from rain.

NOTE: Pay attention to personal safety when using drilling tools, and there’s should be no hidden water, electricity, or gas pipelines at the drilling position.

Check if there is sufficient space under the countertop for assembling the system (18.03” * 5.51” * 17.13”). The front panel should be facing out, which will be convenient for future filter replacement and indicator checking.

NOTE: It is not recommended to place the housing against the cabinet, vibrations may occur when the system works.

a) The power-supply receptacle for the appliance shall be adjacent to the space in which the appliance is installed;

b) There should be enough space between the compartments specified in (a) that can allow the attachment plug to pass through. But the opening shall not be more than 1-1/2 in (38 mm);

 

The “INPUT" water tubing has been attached to the feed water adapter for easy installation.

1. Shut off the water supply. Turn on the kitchen faucet to release the water pressure;
2. Disconnect the cold-water pipe from the cold-water supply valve;
3. Twist the feed water adapter onto the cold-water supply valve (with its washer) and tighten it with an adjustable wrench (Figure 3); 4. Twist the cold-water pipe (with its washer) onto the feed water adapter and tighten with an adjustable wrench.

NOTE: If the cold-water pipe is 1/2", unscrew the two converters from the feed water adapter (Figure 4), and then implement step 3

NOTE: If your kitchen sink or countertop does not have an existing hole, you will have to drill one (1 inch).

How to Drill a Hole into Your Sink or Countertop

1.Insert the faucet spout into the faucet body;
2.Insert the faucet stem and power cord into the hole on the countertop;
3.Under the sink, put the mounting washer on the faucet stem, slip on the nut and tighten it up;
4.Insert the Quick-Connect fitting onto the faucet stem fully and firmly.

 

5 Install the Drain Saddle

1. Choose a spot on the drainpipe that is convenient for installing the drain saddle; NOTE: It's recommended to install the drain saddle on a vertical drainpipe.
2.Punch a 1/4" hole on the drainpipe. Be sure not to penetrate the opposite side of the pipe (Figure 6);
3.Slip the front plate on one end of the tubing (without the mark), and insert the tubing into the punched hole for about 0.6" (Figure 7);
4. Position the back plate on the drainpipe by tightening the screws and nuts evenly while leaving the tubing in the hole;
5. Pop the lock clip on the fitting to secure the connection (Figure 8).
NOTE: In some cases, the "WASTE" water tubing needs to be connected to the drainpipe through air gap. Consumers need to purchase the air gap accessories additionally.

 

6 Connect Tubing

1.Install the "INPUT" Water Tubing
Identify the white 3/8" PE tubing which has been attached to the feed water adapter (Figure 9);
Insert the other end of the tubing into the "INPUT" water port (Figure 10), and pop the lock clip on the fitting.
NOTE: Make sure it is fully inserted until you reach the mark on the tubing.

 

2.Install the "FILTERED" Water Tubing
Identify the white 1/4" PE tubing;
Insert one end of the PE tubing into the Quick-Connect fitting on the RO faucet (Figure 11), and pop in the lock clip on the fitting;
NOTE: Make sure it is fully inserted until you reach the mark on the tubing.
Insert the other end of the tubing into the "FILTERED" water port (Figure 12), and pop the lock clip on the fitting.
NOTE: Make sure it is fully inserted until you reach the mark on the tubing.
How to Use the Quick-Connect Fittings

 

3.Install the "WASTE" Water Tubing
Identify the red 1/4" PE tubing which has been attached to the drain saddle (Figure 13);
Insert the other end of the tubing into the "WASTE" water port (Figure 14), and pop the lock clip onto the fitting.
NOTE: Make sure it is fully inserted until you reach the mark on the tubing.

7 Connect Power Cord

Connect the RO faucet to the system: Insert the power cord which is attached to the RO faucet into the "FAUCET" connector (Figure 15) at the back of the housing, and tighten the nut.
Connect Power Adapter: Insert the DC head of the power adapter into the "POWER" port at the back of the housing (Figure 16).
NOTE: Please do not connect the power socket now.

 

 

8 Install the Filters

Each filter is marked with a logo (CB/CF/RO) and an installation arrow.
1. Insert the filter into its corresponding hole (Figure 17), align the arrow with the empty circle on the housing (Figure 18);
2. Twist the filter with a little force forward in a clockwise direction for 90 degrees, until the arrow is aligned with the solid circle on the housing (Figure 19);
3. Repeat the above steps to install the other two filters
