Property Damage: Do not extend the lines farther

than the 16" provided. Ensure tube(s) and “Y”

connnector are securely fit.

Personal Injury: Do not locate filter above an

outlet or other electrical device. Install head and

bracket so that connections require no stretching,

kinking or pinching of tubing.

It is normal for approximately 2 oz. of water

to discharge when filter is removed.

Property Damage: Tube runs need to form to the

cabinet’s contours to allow storage space with no

sharp bends. Tubes need clean, perpendicular,

burr-free cuts to ensure a true fit.
