It is important to wipe off all water deposits inside the distiller chassis, on the
base of the chassis and also all water deposits on the outside bottom of the boiling
chamber between each distillation cycle. If this is not done, corrosion of the distiller
or electrical hazard may occur or it may cause the distiller to shut off early, before
producing a full gallon of water.
Heavy scale deposits should be removed from the boiling chamber whenever
they exceed

of an inch (.16 cm). Add enough plain white distilled vinegar
to the boiling chamber so that the scale deposits are covered. Allow the vinegar
to stand for at least twenty minutes and then discard. Rinse the boiling chamber.
Repeat this process if necessary.
Do not heat vinegar in boiling chamber .
A descaler or coffeemaker or kettle cleaner may also be used to clean the
boiling chamber .
WATER BOTTLE
To Sanitize Water Bottle:
It is recommended that this be done whenever an
undesirable taste is detected in your distilled water. See page 4 under
Prepare
Your Distiller
for instructions on sanitizing the water bottle.
OUTSIDE SURFACES
Use a common household glass or appliance cleaner or a damp soft cloth to
clean the distiller’ s outside surfaces. Do not use abrasive or solvent based cleaners.
Do not spray cleaning products directly onto the distiller .
The distiller’s cooling system vents (see diagram on page 4) should be vacuumed
occasionally or cleaned with a soft brush to remove dust and debris. Failure
to do so may cause the distiller to overheat, shut off early , or emit a foul odor.
CARBON FILTER
Your distiller comes with a disposable filter cup. The filter cup should be replaced
every two months or whenever an undesirable taste is detected in the distilled
water. See page 4.
NOTE: Underwriters Laboratories Inc., has not investigated the physiological
effect of the use of the carbon filter , beneficial or otherwise.
