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 Use replacement cartridge T1RFWB2, part #4396710. 2006 suggested retail price of $39.99 U.S.A./$49.99 Canada. Prices are subject to change without notice. Model T1WB2L: Style 1 - When the filter indicator reads 10%, order a new filter. When the filter indicator reads 0%, it is recommended that you replace the filter. Style 2 - 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 T1WB2: 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 These contaminants are not necessarily in your water supply. While testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual performance may vary. s The product is for cold water use only. s Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. Systems certified for cyst reduction may be used on disinfected waters that may contain filterable cysts. s Refer to the back cover or "Accessories" section for the Manufacturer's name, address and telephone number. s Refer to the "Warranty" section for the Manufacturer's limited warranty.
