Pull used cartridge down and discard. Some residual water drainage may occur.
Ensure o-rings are positioned correctly, moisten them, and push the new cartridge into the filter head.

How to replace the filter cartridge

Important: The disposable filter cartridge must be replaced every 12 months, at the rated capacity or sooner if a noticeable reduction in flow rate occurs.

Note: The system is equipped with an internal by-pass valve.

Turn cartridge slowly to the left, about 1/4 turn, until it stops. At this position, both inlet and outlet ports are closed and water pressure has been relieved.
Pull used cartridge straight down and discard.
- Note: There may be a small amount of residual water drainage after pressure is relieved and during cartridge removal.
Make sure the o-rings are positioned correctly in grooves. Moisten the o-rings with water. Push new cartridge into filter head. Turn cartridge 1/4 turn to the right until it stops. Top surface of cartridge will become flush with bottom of the head when fully engaged.
Open faucet or down stream valve (if installed) and flush new filter cartridge for two minutes, expelling any trapped air and carbon fines. Water may run cloudy with air but will quickly clear.

Periodic checks

Check connection and shower hoses periodically for the following:
- Watertightness
- Corrosion
- Mechanical damage
Use original spare parts only.
Replace damp or dripping hoses.
Replace hoses with rusty or oxidized surfaces.
Replace hoses that show signs of mechanical damage.
