Draining the Reservoir
A.
Collect these items:
1.
An empty container to drain the water into that can hold at least 3 gallons
(11.4 liters).
2.
The drain hose with a female quick-disconnect coupling.
3.
2 gallons (7.6 liters) distilled/sterile water to replenish the reservoir.
B.
Insert the drain end of the hose into the 3 gallon (11.4 liters) container. Set the
container on the floor so the hose drains downward.
C.
Attach the female coupling of the drain hose to any one of the male outlet
couplings on the right side of the unit.
1.
Slide back the collar of the female coupling.
2.
Insert the female coupling over the male coupling.
3.
Release the collar so the coupling ‘Snaps’ into position.
D.
Plug the power cord into a properly grounded power outlet.
E.
Place the power switch to the “I” position.
The water is pumped into the container until there is approximately 1½ quarts (1.4
liters) of water remaining to be drained. The LO WATER indicator lights up, the status
display flashes and the alarm sounds. The unit shuts down but the water continues to
drain into the container because of gravitational pull.
F.
Press the power switch to the “O” position.
G.
Disconnect the power cord from the power source.
H.
After all the water has drained from the unit, disconnect the drain hose, wipe,
clean and store in a dry environment without disinfecting. Refer to Section 5-3 for
storage conditions specifications.
I.
Discard the water drained from the unit.
CAUTION
Always drain the NORM-O-TEMP
®
to a sanitary drain because bacteria may be
present in the unit’s water supply.
WARNING
Do not by-pass ground lug.
Electrical Hazards may result.
