Base Grille Water Filtration System Model T1WG2L/T2RFWG2 Capacity 200 Gallons (758 Liters) Model T1WG2/T2RFWG2 Capacity 200 Gallons (758 Liters) Tested and certified by NSF International against NSF/ANSI Standard 42 for the reduction of Chlorine Taste and Odor, Particulate Class II*; and against NSF/ANSI Standard 53 for the reduction of Mercury, Benzene, Toxaphene, O-dichlorobenzene, and Carbofuran. This system has been tested according to NSF/ANSI 42/53 for the reduction of the substances listed below. The concentration of the indicated substances in water entering the system was reduced to a concentration less than or equal to the permissible limit for water leaving the system, as specified in NSF/ANSI 42/53.

Flow = 0.5 gpm (1.9 Lpm). Pressure = 60 psig (413.7 kPa). Temp. = 68°F to 71.6°F (20°C to 22°C). s It is essential that operational, maintenance, and filter replacement requirements be carried out for the product to perform as advertised. s Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. s Use replacement cartridge T2RFWG2, part #4396841. In Canada, use replacement cartridge T2RFWG2, part #4396841B. 2005 suggested retail price of $34.99 U.S.A./ $43.99 Canada. Prices are subject to change without notice. Model T1WG2L: When the filter indicator light changes from green to yellow, order a new filter. When the filter indicator light changes from yellow to red, it is recommended that you replace the filter. Model T1WG2: Change the water filter cartridge every 6 months depending upon your usage. If the water flow to the water dispenser or ice maker decreases noticeably before 6 months have passed, replace the water filter cartridge more often. s Refer to the "Assistance or Service" section for the Manufacturer's name, address and telephone number. s Refer to the "Warranty" section for the Manufacturer's limited warranty.
