II. Precautions
The AQUA
3
II Unit:
1. Read the instructions completely
before operating your AQUA
3
II,
and keep the Use and Care
Manual in a convenient location
for future reference.
2. Do not use the AQUA
3
II near
open electrical current.
3. Do not run hot water (Above
48
O
C/110
O
F) through the
AQUA
3
II because it may
damage the unit.
4. Do not place the AQUA
3
II
where it may easily fall and
break.
5. Do not use the AQUA
3
II
beyond product specifications.
*See inside cover page for
specifications.
6. Always replace the internal
components before or at
recommended capacities with
genuine Rena Ware replacement
components.
7. Always hold the AQUA
3
II firmly
by the base when re-positioning
or transporting the unit.
8. Avoid exposing your AQUA
3
II
body-cover to salt, harsh
chemicals, acidic foods, or direct
sunlight.
CAUTION: After two or more days
of non-use, run water through the
AQUA
3
II for
five full minutes
before resuming usage. This will
help flush any standing water that
may potentially contain bacteria,
and allow your AQUA
3
II filter to
provide water of optimum quality.
Use of the appliance may increase
the bacterial content unless
supplemental treatment is provided.
Internal Components—
the Pre-Filter Ceramic Candle:
1. Handle the pre-filter ceramic
candle carefully—never shake
a pre-filter ceramic candle or
knock it against other items,
even while it is still in its original
packaging. STORE IN A COOL
PLACE.
2. Do not expose the pre-filter
ceramic candle to prolonged
direct or indirect sunlight.
3. Always hold the pre-filter
ceramic candle firmly and gently
in the middle of the component.
DO NOT HOLD THE PRE-
FILTER CERAMIC CANDLE BY
EITHER END. Pre-filter ceramic
candles will crack or break with
improper handling.
4. When transporting the
AQUA
3
II, remove the pre-filter
ceramic candle and transport
it separately, using the original
packing material. The pre-filter
ceramic candle may crack or
break if transported within the
AQUA
3
II unit.
CAUTION: Water should be used
promptly after filtration through the
AQUA
3
II. We do not recommend
storing filtered AQUA
3
II water
for more than 48 hours. Water
filtered by the AQUA
3
II is free
of bacteria inhibitors, such as
chlorine, and therefore may be
susceptible to bacteria growth
after prolonged periods of time
unless supplementary treatment is
provided.
