unit from a position directly on the ground. (This allows water to drain, preventing damage
while the unit is off in freezing temperatures.)
Fill the 5-gallon (19 L) collapsible water container with water. The product may use water from a lake or stream,
but make sure that there’s no debris or sand in the water, which may clog the water system and damage the
product. It’s recommended to use a piece of cloth as filter to cover the opening of the water carrier before
filling in water.
