Installing Your Filter

We have made it easy for you to install the Anchor Countertop Water Filter. The shipped unit comes pre-installed with filter cartridge, faucet, diverter valve, and tube. The only thing you need to do is to install batteries, connect diverter valve to your faucet, and start enjoying the clean refreshing water.

Steps for installation:

1.  Installing Batteries
   From base of the filter unit, remove the protective sticker (used to protect from water) and slide off the battery cover. Install the 2 AAA batteries (included) in the battery compartment and slide back and fix both, cover and sticker.

2. Connecting Faucet
   i. Remove existing aerator from the faucet. Note the threads in your faucet. If the threads are on the:
   ii. Based on your faucet threads described above, connect the divertor to the faucet as shown in the image below:
   a. Faucet with outside thread – the diverter valve should screw right on

b. Faucet with inside thread – Enclosed metal adapter ring and gasket must be used

If your faucet has non-standard threads, try the supplied universal adapter or purchase a special adapter from your local hardware store

After setting up the faucet, do the following:

1. Once the diverter valve is well connected with the faucet, the filter is ready to operate. Place the filter unit in a convenient
   location with the spout positioned over your sink. The spout is designed to swivel.

2. Turn on the faucet and pull out the stick of the diverter valve as shown  in the image. The diverter valve willdivert water to the filter unit and water will come out of the spout in the filter.

3. Allow it to run for several minutes to flush out the carbon fines (blackish specs). Initially, the water may contain tiny air bubbles and taste slightly sweet – this is normal and harmless, and will clear up after flushing.

4. To stop the flow from the filter and for normal unfiltered water flow through your kitchen faucet, push the diverter valve knob back in.

LCD Display

1. The electronic filter monitor automatically shows remaining filter capacity on the LCD when filter is used. LCD automatically turns off in 3 seconds to save battery power when not in use.
2. The electronic filter LCD monitor blinks 0 and generates an audible  sound to notify that the filter hasreached end of life. The filter cartridge should be changed at this point.

Replacing the Filter Cartridge

1. Turn off water. Unscrew the housing from base by turning it counterclockwise using the supplied filter wrench.

2. Remove the old cartridge and discard. At this point, it is recommended to clean the housing from inside.

3. Check the O-ring for wear & tear. Oring rests above the thread in the base.
   – If it is worn, replace it.
   – If it is in good working condition, lubricate it with food-grade petroleum jelly to ensure it lies flat and prevents leaking.

4. Unwrap new filter cartridge from plastic wrap and place it on the filter base with side marked up facing up (see picture on the right). Put the housing back on. Apply some petroleum jelly on housing threads for easier unscrewing next time.

5. Pick up the base and screw the housing tight enough with hand first. Doing it this way will prevent the O-ring from slipping loose and causing the filter to leak. Once the filter housing is hand tight, tighten it an additional 1/4 to 1/2 turn with the supplied filter wrench to prevent any leakage.

6. Reset the LCD gallon count from 0 to 1500 gallons by following steps in ‘battery replacement’ section on next page, step 3.

7. Place the system on flat surface and turn on the water supply. Let the water run for several minutes to flush out normal carbon fines.

Battery Replacement

1. Low Battery Power Alert When the battery power is low, the electronic filter monitor generates an audible sound and a battery symbol blinks on the top right corner of the LCD. When this happens, replace the batteries. After the batteries are replaced, the sound and blinking will stop.
2. Last data Automatically Memorized The Anchor DigiPure 9000s is operated by 2 AAA alkaline batteries. The batteries last more than a year. When not in use, LCD automatically turns off in 3 seconds to save battery power after displaying the remaining capacity. The last data displayed is automatically memorized after the display turns off.
3. Reset after replacing filter cartridge After the filter cartridge is replaced, press the ‘Reset’ button on the unit to reset the remaining capacity of the filter to default value. For resetting monitoring capacity when the remaining capacity shown is not 0, press and hold the ‘Display’ button and then press ‘Reset’. The LCD will blink for 10 seconds and then stop. This will reset the capacity.
