Whirlpool ED2FHAXS User Manual

This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53 for the reduction of the substances listed below. The 
concentration of the indicated substances in water entering the system was reduced to a concentration less than or equal to the 
permissible limit for water leaving the system, as specified in NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53.

Test Parameters: pH = 7.5 ± 0.5 unless otherwise noted. Flow = 0.5 gpm (1.9 Lpm). Pressure = 60 psig (413.7 kPa). 
Temp. = 68°F to 71.6°F (20°C to 22°C).

■

It is essential that operational, maintenance, and filter 
replacement requirements be carried out for the product to 
perform as advertised.

■

Use replacement cartridge T1RFWB2, part #4396710. 
2007 suggested retail price of $39.99 U.S.A./$49.99 Canada. 
Prices are subject to change without notice.

Model T1WB2L: Style 1 – When the filter indicator reads 10%, 
order a new filter. When the filter indicator reads 0%, it is 
recommended that you replace the filter. 
Style 2 – When the filter indicator light changes from green to 
yellow, order a new filter. When the filter indicator light changes 
from yellow to red, it is recommended that you replace the filter. 
Model T1WB2: Change the water filter cartridge every 6 months 
depending upon your usage. If the water flow to the water 
dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably before 6 months 
have passed, replace the water filter cartridge more often.

These contaminants are not necessarily in your water supply. 
While testing was performed under standard laboratory 
conditions, actual performance may vary.

The product is for cold water use only.

■

Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of 
unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the 
system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on 
disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts.
