Operating Precautions
TO PREVENT PERSONAL INJURY AND TO PREVENT
DAMAGE TO YOUR WATER DISTILLER, PLEASE READ AND
FOLLOW ALL OF THE FOLLOWING
INSTRUCTIONS & WARNINGS
•
Always use heat protective gloves or mitts when handling any part of
your distiller.
•
Any steam produced will be hot and can cause a serious burn
injury. Use extreme caution while using your distiller.
•
Check the water pan water level often.
Do not let the water pan boil
dry.
This will cause serious damage and warping to your distiller and
may render it unusable. Your stovetop could also be damaged if this
happens.
•
Never leave your water distiller unattended while in use.
•
Do not use by or near children.
•
For household use only.
Care Instructions
Before first use, wash all parts of the distiller in the dishwasher or by hand
with warm soapy water. This will help to remove any particles or residue
from the factory. Once clean, dry everything with a soft dish towel to keep
water spots from forming.
•
Before first use, fill the collector pan with water to test the hose. If
water does not freely flow, turn the metal tubing inside the pan slightly
to one side.
•
As you use the distiller, minerals will be left behind inside the water pan
and condenser pan. This is normal and it is recommended that these
deposits be cleaned out to ensure optimal performance of your distiller.
They are easily cleaned by soaking the affected portion in a diluted
vinegar solution. Use ½ c. vinegar to 1 qt of water, let soak for 30-60
minutes, use a dish cloth to wash off any remaining hard water, rinse
and dry. You may need to increase the soak time and/or the amount of
vinegar used for tough stains.
