Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts. CAUTION: Filter must be protected against freezing, which can cause cracking of the filter and water leakage. CAUTION: The rubber O-ring provides the water-tight seal between the cap and the bottom of the housing. It is important that the O-ring be properly seated in the groove below the threads of the housing or a water leak could occur. CAUTION: Because of the product’s limited service life and to prevent costly repairs or possible water damage, we strongly recommend that the bottom of all plastic housings be replaced every ten years. If the bottom of your housing has been in use for longer than this period, it should be replaced immediately. Date the bottom of any new or replacement housing to indicate the next recommended replacement date. The US-640 is Tested and Certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for the aesthetic reduction of Taste and Odor, Chlorine and Particulate Class I. Standard 53 for the reduction of Lead, Mercury, Lindane, Atrazine, Cyst, Asbestos, and Turbidity.

Ask your local water municipality for a copy of their water analysis, or have your private well tested by a reputable water testing lab. • After prolonged periods of non-use (such as during a vacation) it is recommended that the system be flushed thoroughly. Let water run for 5–6 minutes before using. • The filter cartridge used with this system has a limited service life. Changes in taste, odor, color, and/or flow of the water being filtered indicate that the cartridge should be replaced. 2 4 A B C 2 D c A 3 B A c B D C 11.4” A 1.4" 11.4" 1 C B Pilot Hole Mounting Hole Installation • For standard installation on 3/8-inch cold water line (copper or PVC pipe) • Please read all instructions and precautions before installing and using your US-640 Undersink Water Filter. • Numbered diagrams correspond with numbered steps. 1. Selecting the Faucet Location NOTE: The drinking water faucet should be positioned with function, convenience, and appearance in mind. An adequate flat area is required to allow faucet base to rest securely. The faucet fits through a 7/16-inch hole. Most sinks have predrilled 1 3/8–inch or 1 1/2–inch diameter holes that may be used for faucet installation. If these pre-drilled holes cannot be used or are in an inconvenient location, it will be necessary to drill a 1/2-inch hole in the sink for the faucet. CAUTION: This procedure may generate dusts which can cause severe irritation if inhaled or come in contact with the eyes. The use of safety glasses and respirator for this procedure is recommended. CAUTION: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRILL THROUGH AN ALL-PORCELAIN OR PORCELAIN-COATED SINK. For applications on these types of sinks we recommend using the sprayer hole or mounting the faucet through the countertop. CAUTION: When drilling through a countertop make sure the area below the drilled area is free of wiring and piping. Make certain that you have ample room to make the proper connections to the bottom of the faucet. CAUTION: Do not drill through a countertop that is more than 1-inch thick. CAUTION: Do not attempt to drill through a tiled, marble, granite or similar countertop. Consult a plumber or the countertop manufacturer for advice or assistance. The following instructions apply to stainless steel sinks only. (A) Line bottom of sink with newspaper to prevent shavings, parts or tools from falling down the drain. (B) Place masking tape over the area to be drilled to prevent scratches if drill bit slips. (C) Mark point with center punch. Using a 1/2-inch drill bit, drill a hole completely through the sink. Smooth rough edges with a file. 2. Mounting the Faucet (A) Slide small black rubber gasket OR (B) gasket, aluminum escutcheon plate, and large gasket onto threaded faucet stem. Lower faucet stem through hole in the sink. NOTE: Black rubber gasket is designed for smaller holes in sink. Aluminum escutcheon plate with gaskets is designed for larger, pre-drilled holes. (C) Slide aluminum channel washer up faucet stem, followed by (D) black plastic stem nut. Tighten nut with fingers. NOTE: Do not use pliers to tighten stem-nut. Pliers may strip threads of faucet stem. 3. Mounting the Filter System (A) Turn off cold water supply and open nearest faucet to release pressure in pipes before starting installation. Place a tray or towels under the cold water line to catch excess water. (B) Select location under sink where filter is to be mounted. Use mounting bracket as a template to mark screw locations. Mou...
