Installation of the PI® active-carbon fiber filter
The PI® active-carbon fiber filter is inserted into the system prior to the reverse-osmosis.
The installation is very simple and intuitive.
- Open the PI®-Water tap and initiate the water production.
- Cut the tap water supply during the water production using the blue tap “FEED” after the angle tap.
- The system quits automatically with the error “WATER PROTECTION WATER LACK” on the display.
- Turn off the system using the power switch on the backside. Close the PI®-Water tap.
- Cut the tap water pipe (FEED) at a suitable place. The pipe has to be cut absolutely at 90°!
- Insert the free ends of the newly severed pipe into the John Guest plug-in connectors of the filter’s housing. You may find a precise information in the John Guest plugin connector guide.
Please note the additional information about the John Guest push fit system here. - IMPORTANT: The entry connector for the incoming water is close to the edge of the housing’s cap. The exit is in the center.
- Secure the connections with the security-clips.
- Open the blue tap “FEED” after the angle tap.
- Turn the system on with the power switch on the back side.
The system starts with a short flush and is ready right after.
