How To Replace Filter

WARNING

It is extremely important that the unit be

unplugged. The Zuvo Water Filtration System

contains a high-intensity ultraviolet (UV) light that

can damage tissues in the eye. The UV light cannot

travel through the plastic housing.

However, removing the filter requires that the

top cap be removed, exposing the lamp. Do not

proceed without unplugging the unit!

For the filter to be removed, the filter and all

internal seals must be wet.Donotattempttoremove

adryfilter.DoingsomayresultinbreakageoftheUV

lamp.

1. Unplugunit:Always

 unplugunitbefore

 openingthetopcap.

Failure to do so could

 resultinexposureto

 ultravioletlightwhich

 isharmfultoeyes.

2.Pullbothclamps

 upwardlyand

evenly.

3.Pullbothlocking

 tabsoutward.

4.Pullbothlocking

 tabsdown.

5.Rotatetopcapto

 exposefiltercover.

6.Pulloutfilterbypulling

 straightup.

7.Priortoinstalling

 newfilter,wetlower

 O-ringwithwaterto

 allowthefilterto

slide on easier, and

 thensimplyreverse

 theabovestepsto

 re-sealtheunit.

8.Flushthesystemwithcoldtapwateraccordingto

theoperatinginstructionsinthismanualbeforeuse.

Never flush or operate the unit with hot water.
