Maintenance of Water Reservoir
The dual compartment reservoir holds approximately 1½ gallons (5.7 liters) of distilled
water that remains in the unit between periods of use.
Once a month the water reservoir should be drained and replenished. The drain hose,
included in the packaging of the unit, is attached and the water is pumped out of the unit.
When the LO WATER alarm sounds, the remaining water is drained by gravity.
Distilled/sterile water (or distilled water-cleaning agent preparation) is then poured into
the reservoir.
Quarterly, at a minimum, the Internal Cleaning / Dry Storage Procedure, listed below,
should be conducted.
NOTE:
DO NOT USE DE-IONIZED WATER OR ALCOHOL.
