[ Tip ]
Why does rinsing fruits and vegetables extend their life? Most, if not all, fruits
and vegetables that you bring into your kitchen have a strain of bacteria on them
called pseudomonas. This bacteria hastens the growth of mold or rust that ruins
your fruits and produce. Oz kills this strain of bacteria on contact.
Pretty simple!

To rinse and preserve the life of fruits, vegetables and meats simply place your food in
a non-metallic bowl or container (glass bowls work great!) and fill with cool tap water
till the food is covered. Place the tube and diffuser stone in the water and program your
settings.
Fruits and Vegetables:
3-5 minutes. Gently move the fruits and vegetables to equalize
the exposure to the highest concentrations of ozone in the water. Once you are done,
drain the fruits and vegetables and package appropriately and store in the refrigerator.
NOTE: Strawberries are quite delicate so experiment with the shortest time you can use
and still effectively extend the life of the strawberries.
Meats and Poultry:
Rinse for 5-10 minutes.
Purifying Drinking Water:
5 minutes per 12 oz. After ozonating let stand for 20 minutes
and the ozone will return to oxygen and the water is ready to drink.
