Sterilite Point-of-Use Drinking Water System owner manual Operation

2.If the diverter supplied with the unit will not attach directly to your faucet, install the adapter. When done, or if the adapter is not needed, connect the Sterilight unit diverter valve assembly to the faucet (Figure 10).

3.Plug the power supply into an available outlet.

The outlet MUST always have power available. Do not plug the unit into an outlet that can be switched on or off.

The unit is now ready for operation.

OPERATION

Figure 10 Attaching diverter to Faucet

Prior to drinking water from the unit, flush unit for five minutes.

To operate the unit, simply turn on the cold water faucet and pull the diverter valve plunger outward (Figure 11). To

bypass the unit, push the diverter valve inward.

You will observe the following when the Sterilight unit is operating properly:

1.Once flow is established, the UV lamp will turn on and become fully bright and steady within the first second of operation.

2.Water enters the unit at the bottom where it is mixed with ozone, forming a Sterilight of swirling bubbles and a swooshing sound.

Figure 11 Turn on the faucet by pulling the diverter valve flow control knob outward.

The unit will automatically come on.

3.Any ozone left following the patented

ozone/UV photo-oxidation process is reconverted to oxygen in the filter element. Water leaving the unit is fully treated and mixed with air and the reconverted ozone. The air will appear as tiny bubbles, sometimes giving the water an initial cloudy appearance. After sitting for a minute or so,

all of the bubbles will rise to the surface and disperse, leaving the water crystal clear.

4.Because of the trapped air, the water outlet from the unit will occasionally sputter, particularly at start-up.
