Maytag 12828186A Manual De Usuario

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 = 0.78 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.

■

The filter monitor system measures the amount of water that 
passes through the filter and alerts you to replace the filter. 
When 90% of the filter’s rated life is used, the yellow (Order) 
light comes on. When 100% of the filter’s rated life is used, 
the red (Replace) light comes on, and it is recommended that 
you replace the filter. For models without filter status lights, 
replace the filter every 6 months. Use replacement filter 
model UFK8001AXX-750. 2007 suggested retail price of 
$49.99 U.S.A./$65.95 Canada. Prices are subject to change 
without notice. 

■

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.
