QUANTUM™  is  not  intended  to  purify  water  above  the   surface 

of the water in the container, such as droplets  on the sides of the 
container.

QUANTUM™ is not intended to purify surfaces of a drinking 

container, like the mouth of the bottle. Be certain that you always 
wipe the container mouth dry with a clean, dry cloth before drinking.

QUANTUM™  may  be  used  in  4  liter  RapidUV™  RESERVOIR,  or  1 
liter glass, plastic, ceramic, or metal containers, as they all absorb or 
reflect UV light, thereby shielding the user from UV exposure.

QUANTUM™ is not intended for use by children.

QUANTUM™ is a high voltage device. Removal or tampering with 

the electronic circuit board or lamp assembly may cause injury, or 

damage. Do not open, expose, modify, or touch internal circuitry; 
doing so can lead to high voltage shock.

As  with  other  fluorescent-type  lamps,  QUANTUM™  contains   a 

small amount of mercury.  At the end of its life, please  dispose of 

QUANTUM™  properly.  For  specific  instructions   contact  your  local 

waste disposal organization.

QUANTUM™ is not intended to treat liquids other than water.  Do 

 not use in water with ice. Do not use in water above 120°F/49°C.

As  with  any  other  water  treatment  system,  always  have   a  backup 

method.

While carefully controlled microbiological testing of all SteriPEN®® 
products  has  been  conducted,  use  of  all  SteriPEN®®  products  in 
the field may produce results that vary from our laboratory test data.
