Problem
Check point
Drain hose
Water is drained
even after the faucet
is closed.
Water inside the main unit is drained every after use.
(P. EN27, EN31)
Water is not drained
while water other than
purifi ed water is used.
Is the drain hose bent or fl attened?
• If water keeps running, it may cause malfunction. Also It can
not electrolysis correctly.
Is
displayed? (P. EN27)
Sound and buzzer
A buzzer does not
beep while weak
acidic water or acidic
water is used.
Has “Weak acidic buzzer” been set to OFF? (P. EN32)
Sounds are heard
from the unit
after the faucet has been
turned off
A clicking sound may be heard from the main unit before water is
drained.
(This is not a malfunction)
Odor
, taste, turbidness, and change in color
The water produced by
the Alkaline Ionizer has
an odor or unpleasant
taste or is turbid
Purifi cation performance of the cartridge is deteriorated.
→ Replace the cartridge. (P. EN30)
If an odor occurs within 2 to 3 months after the cartridge is replaced,
the water discharge line or waste water line may be soiled.
→ Press the Acidic button, and run weak acidic water for approx. 15 seconds.
The smell at the
beginning of use of
water concerns me.
Since water is accumulated inside the main unit for 10 minutes after
Alkaline level 1 to 3 and Purifi ed are used, there are rare cases
where some people are sensitive to the smell of the main unit.
→ If the smell concerns you, after a buzzer beeps, run water for a while
before using.
The weak acidic
water has an odor
Electrolysis causes the chlorine ions in the water to collect in
weak acidic water, forming hypochlorous acid.
→ There’s no problem if you use it as is.
White suspended
matter is mixed in with
the alkaline ion water
White fl oating matter is calcium deposited inside the main unit.
Foam-like fl oating matter is the air inside the main unit or
hydrogen foam generated during electrolysis.
(There’s no problem if you use it as is.)
• This foam tends to be much generated after installation or
cartridge replacement.
• In the case of weak acidic water, oxygen foam is generated.
Alkaline ion water or
purifi ed water looks
shiny.
It is due to the precipitation of the components (mainly minerals)
which are dissolved in the water.
→ There’s no problem if you use it as is. But if it bothers you, use the
Alkaline Ionizer at a reduced pH (ion concentration) level.
