▲ WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of property damage or personal injury.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

■Check with your local public works department for plumbing codes. You must follow these guidelines as you install the Water Filtration system.
■Use the Water Filtration system on a potable, safe-to-drink, home COLD water supply only. The filter cartridges will not purify the water, or make it safe to drink.
■ Do not use on a hot water supply (100°F max.).

WARNING:

Do not use with water that is unsafe or of unknown quality without on before or after the system. Systemsduction may be used on disinfectedain filterable cysts.

PROPER INSTALLATION

This Water Filtration system must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used.

■Install or store where it will not be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to any type of weather. Water freezing in the system will damage it. Do not attempt to treat water over 100^ F.

■Your Water Filtration system will withstand up to 125 pounds per square inch (psi) water pressure. If your house water supply pressure is higher than 100 psi, install a pressure reducing valve before installing the Water Filtration system.

⚠ WARNING: Discard all unused and packaging material after installation. Small parts remaining after installation could be a choke hazard.

READ AND FOLLOW THIS SAFETY INFORMATION CAREFULLY.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Many bad tastes and/or odors are removed from water using activated carbon filter cartridges. They are most often used to remove a chlorine taste and odor. They can also reduce other undesirable elements from drinking water supplies, such as organic chemical contaminants and lead.

NOTE: Small amounts of hydrogen sulfide (noticeable as “rotten egg” odor) may be reduced by taste and odor filters for a short time, but the carbon media is quickly exhausted. Other water conditioning equipment is usually required for the continuous treatment of hydrogen sulfide.

The Water Filtration system uses two filter cartridges.

Using the Water Filtration System and About the Filter Cartridge

The countertop faucet dispenses filtered drinking water when opened. It has a hand-operated, spring-loaded closed lever to prevent waste. You can keep the faucet open by pushing upward on the lever to lock it against the faucet spout.

Filter Cartridge Life – Several variables determine how long the cartridges will last in your Water Filtration system. These include:

1 How much water you use.

2 How much sediment, taste and/or odor, lead or other unwanted substance is in the water.

No matter which Water Filtration system you have, you should replace the cartridges every six months, when indicated by the electronic indicator light on the base. In extremely poor water supplies, you may notice the return of the unwanted substance in your water before the six months are up. In this case the cartridges should be replaced immediately. If the system is also for lead or chemical contaminant removal, it is MORE IMPORTANT to replace the cartridges at least every six months.

NOTE: If the water supply contains high amounts of sediments, the carbon filters may plug prematurely, reducing filtered water flow to the system faucet. Cartridge replacement is needed to restore flow.

Electronic Indicator Light (GXSV10C only) – The electronic indicator light on the base of the faucet is a six-month timer that shows you when to replace the filter cartridges. When the battery pack is first installed, the indicator light will light briefly to show that the electronics are operating. If this does not happen, the batteries may be installed backwards or the lead wires are not connected.

After about six months, the indicator light begins to flash. It is time to replace the filter cartridges. When replacing the filter cartridges, also replace the batteries in the battery pack. Two AA batteries are required.

Important Installation Recommendations

Read entire manual. Failure to follow all guides and rules could cause personal injury or property damage.

■Check with your local public works department for plumbing codes. You must follow their guides as you install the Water Filtration system.
Use the Water Filtration system on a potable, safe-to-drink, home COLD water supply only. The filter cartridges will not purify water or make unsafe water safe to drink. DO NOT use on HOT water (100°F max.).
■Protect the Water Filtration system and piping from freezing. Water freezing in the system will damage it.
■Your Water Filtration system will withstand up to 125 psi water pressure. If your house water supply pressure is higher than 100 psi during the day (it may reach higher levels at night), install a pressure-reducing valve before the system.

⚠ WARNING: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. GXSL03C (rev. 2) and GXSV10C are certified for cyst reduction and may be used on disinfected water that may contain filterable cysts. The water should be tested periodically to verify that the system is performing satisfactorily. Small parts remaining after the installation could be a choke hazard. Discard safely.

Tubing Connections - Push-In Style (Models GXSL03C [rev. 2] and GXSV10C)

7 Run the length of the 3/8" tubing, connected to the bottom of the faucet, to the filter system outlet (illustration above). Allow enough slack in the tubing so that the unit can be easily removed.
2 Measure and cut the end of the tubing square using a sharp cutter or knife. Remove any burrs (illustration A).
3 Inspect the end of the tubing, about 1 inch, to be sure there are no imperfections. It may be necessary to cut the tubing again.
4 Mark the tubing for length of insertion. For 3/8" OD tubing the insertion length should be approximately 3/4 of an inch. Tubing must be fully inserted to avoid leaks.
DO NOT REMOVE GRAY COLLET. Push the tubing all the way into the fitting until it bottoms out. The insertion line should be hidden or barely visible (illustration B and C). Slightly pull on the tubing to verify engagement.
6 Repeat the procedure to connect the tubing between the filter system inlet and the water supply/saddle valve (illustration in the Installation Overview section).
7 To remove tubing (illustration D), depress and hold gray collet. Pull tubing to remove.

NOTE: Avoid installing the unit where the tubing is pulled at a sharp angle. This type of installation may cause the fittings to leak. If using tubing other than what is supplied, be sure it is high quality, exact size and roundness, and has a smooth surface.

Filter Cartridge Installation or Replacement

A CAUTION: Never remove the stumps when water pressure is in the Water Filtration system.
1 Close the water supply/saddle valve to the filter. (See illustration in the Installation Overview section for location of the water supply valve.) Open the filtered water faucet.
2 Remove the sump, using the sump wrench tool provided, from the filter head by rotating the sump as shown in the below illustration. Be careful, the sump may be full of water. Be sure to keep the large o-ring seal.
3 If you are replacing a filter cartridge, remove and discard the used filter cartridge.
4 Be sure the inside of the sump is clean. Thoroughly wash the inside of the sump with hot, soapy water and rinse.
5 Remove the wrapper from the new filter cartridge and insert the filter cartridge in the sump. Some cartridges fit either way, while others fit only one way. Observe markings on the cartridge.

NOTE: The Water Filtration system uses two different types of filter cartridges. Be sure to install them correctly. Filter I cartridge should always be placed in the Filter I sump. Filter II cartridge should always be placed in the Filter II sump. See page 3 for a complete list of filter performance characteristics.

10 Turn on the filtered water faucet. Then, slowly open the water supply/saddle valve and allow the filter housing to fill.
11 Close the filtered water faucet. Then, check for leaks between the sump and the head.

NOTE: If leaking, turn off the water supply and turn on the filtered water faucet. Disassemble the filter housing and check the o-ring for cuts, flat spots, etc., and sealing surfaces for foreign material. Clean the o-ring and lightly lubricate with clean silicone grease. Carefully press into the groove in the sump. Reassemble and check for leaks.

12 If you are replacing the batteries, remove, properly discard and install two new AA alkaline batteries in the battery pack. Removing the batteries or momentarily disconnecting the lead wires resets the six-month electronic timer. It is recommended that you change your batteries at least once a year.
The filter cartridges contain activated carbon. When new, turn on the filtered water faucet for ten minutes to flush the system.
14 Place filter change label on sump, inside cabinet door, or in another convenient location. Write in date of filter change for future reference. Filters should be changed every six months.

Flush Procedure

Whenever water of unknown quality is passed through the GE Water Filtration system, filter elements should be discarded and the filtration system flushed.

Circumstances that may require flushing the system are:

■Boil-water advisory.
■Flooding of the GE Water Filtration system.
■Long-term non-use.

The procedure for flushing the GE Water Filtration system is:

1 See Filter Cartridge Replacement section and follow steps 1, 2, 3 and 4.
2 Next, reinstall the sumps (without the filter elements), turn water on and flush water through the faucet for one minute.
3 Then, turn water off, remove sumps, empty water out of sumps and install new filter elements.
4 Follow steps 5–11 in the Filter Cartridge Replacement section to complete.
