How to Choose the Right Adapter
For external threaded faucets, please connect the adapter directly to the mounting base (E).
For internal threaded faucets, select the appropriate adapter (A3/A5)
according to the thread size. Use a coin to connect the adapter to the faucet.
Then connect the mounting base (E) of the system to the adapter. If the seal
ring of adapter is loose, please install it firmly.
If you still cannot connect it properly, please contact customer service to get another adapter.
Tighten the filter housing (A) with a wrench (F). Figure 1.1.
Put the water system in its proper position. Switch the lever to the level
position and run water to the system slightly. Flush it for 3-5 minutes during
the first use. Figure 1.2
Tips: If there is water leakage at the connecting position between the
faucet and the
system, it is recommended to use the Teflon tape inside the instruction
package to avoid leakage.
NOTE: There may be a small amount of black water during the first use. This is a normal phenomenon because of the activated carbon. Feel free to use the water after it becomes clear.
Use Method
- Switch the lever to the downward direction to get tap water.(Figure 1.3)
- Switch the lever to the level direction to get pure water.(Figure 1.4)
NOTE:
- Before the first use, run water for 3-5 minutes in the “pure water” position. Do not run water at a temperature higher than 100°F/38°C. There may be a small amount of black water and the sound of water pushing air out of the filter during the first use. This is a normal phenomenon because of the active carbon. Feel free to use the water after it becomes clear.
- Check for water leakage. In the event of leakage, refer to the FAQ or contact customer service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why does the filtered water taste weird?
A: The filter is not installed appropriately, or it should be replaced.
Please re-install it in a correct way. If there is still bad taste, please
replace the filter.
Q: Why does the TDS value not lower after filtration?
A: TDS stands for total dissolved solids. It is composed of inorganic
salts and a
small amount of organic matter. This system cannot lower the TDS value because
it removes harmful substances while keeping beneficial trace elements, which
can increase the TDS value.
Q: Why does water leak between the mounting base and the faucet?
A : Remove the filtration system from the faucet and check on whether the
O ring at the connection is placed correctly. Ensure that the thread between
the faucet and the filtration system is screwed in firmly so that the O-ring
can work.
Q: Why is the water leaking or dripping?
A : Check on whether the selected adapter is correct, or weather the
adapter sealing ring and the base sealing ring are installed firmly. Check on
whether the spout (D) and the stainless-steel base (C) are installed in place.
Flush the filter for 3-5 minutes to activate it, and then there will not be
water leaking or dripping.
