Maintaining Your Water Optimizer

Replacing Your Water Optimizer’s Filters

Your Water Optimizer is equipped with a

Pod Filter(s) Status Light

to indicate

when you need to change your pod lters (based on typical usage).

This reminder

is controlled by a timer that will change the Pod Filter(s) Status Light

from white to red

every six months. This timer can be reset by following the last step in this section.

To maximize lter and appliance lifespan, it is very important to always ush the

ULTRA+3 Hybrid Filter , or alternative

Chemical Filter and the

Polishing Filter (if purchased separately), prior to installing them into your

Water Optimizer.

For this step, you will need a towel, a container to catch water, and your Filter Flushing

Setup you assembled during installation.

1. Unplug

110v Power Cord from the electrical outlet.

2. Shuto water ow to your appliance by turning the blue handle on the

1/4 in. Quick Connect Shuto Valve (see Installation Guide) connected to your

Optimizer’s

Source Input Port located at the back of the appliance.

3. Place your container below the

Water Dispenser Nozzle, then press the

Ambient Dispense Mode Button, quickly followed by pressing and holding the

Dispense Button to depressurize the system, by dispensing water into a cup until water

ow stops.

4. If you aren’t replacing the

ULTRA+3 Hybrid Filter (or one of the alternative lters

listed above), you can skip ahead to “Step 9” on page 14.

5. Disconnect the tubing running between our Optimizer’s

Source Input Port and

the

1/4 in. Quick Connect Shuto Valve you just shuto, and place end of the

tubing into the container to catch any water that drains back.

6. Connect the open end of the tubing from your

Filter Flushing Setup to the

1/4 in. Quick Connect Shuto Valve that you just disconnected.

7. Connect the lter(s) listed above that you are replacing to the

Filter Flushing Attachment, and ush by opening the
