3. インストール手順

Follow these steps carefully to replace your Kinetico water filter cartridges:

1. 給水を止める: Locate the cold water supply valve to your Kinetico system and turn it off completely. This is typically a small valve under your sink.
2. 減圧システム: Open the dedicated filtered water faucet to relieve any pressure in the system. Allow water to drain until it stops.
3. 古いカートリッジを取り外す: Depending on your specific Kinetico model, cartridges are usually removed by twisting them counter-clockwise or by pressing a release button and pulling them out. Refer to your system's specific manual for precise removal instructions. Dispose of old cartridges responsibly.
4. Prepare New Cartridges: Remove the protective caps or seals from the new 9461A (purple) and 9306B (orange) cartridges.
5. 新しいカートリッジをインストールします:

   Note: Ensure the correct cartridge is placed in the correct position as indicated by your system's labeling or manual.

6. 給水復旧: Slowly turn the cold water supply valve back on.

8. システムをフラッシュする: Open the filtered water faucet and allow water to run for approximately 10-15 minutes. This flushes out any air and carbon fines from the new cartridges. The water may appear cloudy initially; this is normal and will clear.

4. 操作手順

Once installed, the Kinetico replacement cartridges operate automatically as part of your Kinetico water filtration system. No specific user interaction is required for daily operation beyond drawing filtered water from your dedicated faucet.

For optimal performance, ensure the system is used regularly. If the system is left unused for an extended period (e.g., several days or weeks), it is recommended to flush a few gallons of water through the filtered water faucet before consuming.
