Water Filter Performance Data
Model AFF3 (67003523-750) Capacity 750 Gallons (2839 Liters)
System tested and certified by NSF
Odor, Particulate Class I*; and against NSF/ANSI Standard 53 for the reduction of Lead, Mercury, Atrazine, Benzene,
p-Dichlorobenzene, Carbofuran, Toxaphene, Cysts, Turbidity, Asbestos, Tetrachloroethylene and Lindane.
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 permis-
sible limit for water leaving the system, as specified in NSF/ANSI Standards 42 and 53.

It is essential that operational, maintenance and filter replacement
requirements be carried out for the product to perform as adver-
tised.
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 order light comes
on. When 100% of the filter's rated life is used, the 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 Dacor replacement cartridge AFF3.
This product is for cold water use only.
