Step 26

Step 25

a)  Insert the fl ow control into the end of the red 
tubing coming from the faucet.
b) Insert the end of red tubing into the fi tting 
labeled “Drain” on the back of the unit.

Insert the blue 3/8” tube from the faucet into the port on the system 
marked “FAUCET”.  Make sure the tube is pushed in all the way 
to the tube stop.

If system is connected to an ice maker, turn the ice maker off (or do not allow water to fl ow to 
the ice maker) until Step 5 “fl ushing” is complete and the tank has been allowed to completely 
fi ll. Connection from the RO to the ice maker system should have an in-line valve installed 
before the ice maker so it can easily be closed to prevent water fl owing to the ice maker 
during start up and periodic maintenance. Your RO tank must be allowed to fi ll up in order 
for the ice maker system to work properly. (If you are installing an ice maker kit from Watts, 
tee off of the blue line between RO system and faucet).

 After the Tank has fi lled, open the faucet to fl ush the tank completely to remove carbon particles 
from fi nal fi lter.  Repeat this step two more times.  The fourth tank can be used for drinking.  
*Note:  The fl ushing of the tank 3 times is only necessary during initial installation. 
This should take about a day to complete.

Open the RO faucet and leave it open until water begins to trickle out, (it will come out 
slowly).

Step 5

Turn on the incoming cold water at the angle stop valve.  Open the needle valve on the brass 
Adapta Valve by turning counter clockwise. Check the system for leaks and tighten any fi tting 
as necessary.  (Check frequently over the next 24 hours to ensure no leaks are present).

Step 2

Step 1

This reverse osmosis system contains replaceable components critical to the effi ciency  of 
the system. Replacement of the reverse osmosis component should be with one of identical 
specifi cations, as defi ned by the manufacturer, to assure the same effi ciency and contaminant 
reduction performance. Periodic inspection and following proper system maintenance is critical 
for continued performance. 

After water trickles out of the faucet, close the faucet so the tank will fi ll with water.  The tank 
will take 6 to 10 hours to fi ll completely depending on the production capability of the mem-
brane, local water temperature and pressure.

Step 27

Identify each cartridge and the proper location on the system by 
matching the colors and description.

Step 28

Insert each cartridge with a 1/4 turn in the clock wise direction.  The cartridge 
is installed properly when the label is facing toward the front of the unit.
