CONDITION: 

White sediment is in my filtered water.

REASON:  

There is a presence of calcium carbonate in your 

main water supply. This condition will occur any 

time the filtered water is boiled or frozen and  

then melts. 

SOLUTION:  

This condition is normal – no action is required. 

However, you may choose to strain the  

white sediment. 

CONDITION:  

Filtered water is flowing slowly from the System. 

REASON:  

Excessive amounts of particles in your water  

supply may have caused premature plugging  

of the Filter Cartridge prior to the RED LED  

Indicator on the Faucet Ring flashing.

SOLUTION:  

The Filter Cartridge must be replaced due to  

poor water quality conditions in your area. 

NOTE: The Battery and Battery Shuttle MUST  

be replaced at time of Cartridge replacement.  

(Included with UR90 Filter Cartridge.)

CONDITION:  

Ice cubes appear cloudy in the center. 

REASON:  

Minerals such as calcium and magnesium that 

are present in your water supply and collect in 

the center of ice cubes when water is frozen. Your 

System is designed specifically to leave beneficial 

trace minerals in your water. 

SOLUTION:  

No action is required

CONDITION:  

The YELLOW LED Indicator on the Faucet Ring 

is flashing.

REASON:  

Your Filter Cartridge is reaching the end of its 

rated capacity and will need to be replaced soon. 

SOLUTION:  

Purchase a new, NSF certified WaterChef

®

 UR90 

Filter Cartridge. For the location of the reseller
