be present.
• Will go away after water runs for a while.
• Replace both filter canisters and battery in the faucet base.
• Does not blink until 6 months of operation has passed.
• Normally the light is not on. The light blinks every 30 seconds to
indicate a filter change is needed. This occurs about every 6 months.
• Replace battery. Indicator light will blink rapidly 5 times to indicate
proper installation and operation.
• Observe orientation markings on the holder. Install with battery
"+" side down.
• Replace the filter canisters.
• A six-month change-out period is recommended. Replace both
filter canisters.

free of nicks, burrs, etc., and is installed to the proper depth.
• Fully follow the filter replacement instructions.
