Nikken PIMAG DELUXE 13151 Manual De Instrucciones página 9

Note: if any indicator light continues to flash intermittently, check the battery and connections.
The PiMag Deluxe filter cartridge has a rated life of 800 gallons or approximately one year
of use in a family of four. Replacing the cartridge and battery as indicated is important for
this system to perform as represented.
If you detect a reduction in flow rate, or any taste or odor prior to the red light flashing,
this is an indication that you will need to change the cartridge more frequently due to the
water quality in your area.
Nikken recommends that the cartridge be replaced at least every 12 months, or whenever
the red light illuminates, whichever comes first.
REPLACEMENT CARTRIDGES
For this system to perform as represented in the Performance Data Sheet, use only
