NOTES:

1. Multi Pure Drinking Water Filters have been certified, as indicated,

    by NSF International for compliance to NSF/ANSI Standard Nos. 42 & 53.

2. The Multi-Pure Drinking Water Filters have been certified by the

    State of California Department of Health Services for the reduction of specific

    contaminants listed herein.

3. Chloroform was used as a surrogate for claims of reduction of VOCs.

    MultiPure Water Filters tested at >99.8% actual reduction of Chloroform.

    Percent reduction shown herein reflects the allowable claims for VOCs

    as per tables in the Standard.

4. Do not use Multi-Pure Water Filters 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 water that

    may contain filterable cysts.

5. Multi Pure Water Treatment Systems Filter life will vary in proportion to the amount of water used and the level

    of impurities in the water being processed. For optimum performance, it is

    essential that the filter be replaced on a regularly scheduled basis as follows:

   (a) annually; (b) when the unit’s rated capacity has been reached;

   (c) the flow rate diminishes; (d) the filter becomes saturated with

        bad tastes and odors.

6. Model No. MP1200EL includes a capacity monitor that automatically flashes

    a yellow light when it is time to replace your filter.

7. MultiPure Drinking Water Purification System Housings are warranted for Lifetime

    (*provided that the filter be replaced at least once a year). All exterior hoses

    and attachments to the System are warranted for one year. Please see the

    Owner’s Manual for complete product guarantee and warranty information.

8. Please see the Owner’s Manual for installation instructions and operating

    procedures.

9. In compliance with New York law, it is recommended that before

    purchasing a water treatment system, NY residents have their water supply

    tested to determine their actual water treatment needs. Please compare the

    capabilities of the Multi-Pure Water Filtration System with your actual water treatment needs.

10. Check for compliance with state and local laws and regulations.

11. While testing was performed under standard laboratory conditions, actual

     performance may vary.

12. The list of substances which the MultiPure water treatment systems reduce does not

      necessarily mean that these substances are present in your tap water.
