MAINTENANCE
Regular Care
Listed below are things you need to remember for regular care and maintenance of your water purifier.
• Check the indicator lamps on the control panel once a week to ensure the water purifier is function- ing correctly.
•Keep the outside of the water purifier clean. Wipe off using a damp cloth.
Do not pour water over the unit and do not use any corrosive or abrasive cleaning products.
•Be sure to replace filter in time. The level of impuri- ties in your water tank determines the life of the fil- ter. See section “Replacing filter”.
The filter needs replacing every 6 months, when indicated by the lamps on the control panel, when the water flow has decreased to about half the nor- mal amount or if the water has an unpleasant taste. Take care not to spill any water on the water purifier.
After replacing filter, allow the used filter to drain for a few minutes. It can then be discarded in your ordinary household waste as it does not contain any substances that are hazardous to the environment (assuming the water purifier has been used for the purpose for which it was intended).
•Once a month check for leaks in all the connections and hoses to the water purifier.
•The system (tank, hoses and water purifier) must be disinfected regularly, see section “Disinfection”.
•The water purifier needs to be descaled every
3 months during continuous operation or when the flow has decreased and cannot be restored by replacing the filter, see section “Descaling”.
