DISASSEMBLY / ASSEMBLY
TOOLS REQUIRED
: You will need a #2 Phillips screwdriver.
A countertop or flat surface is ideal for disassembling/assembling your unit. You will need 2 ft. x 3ft. of clean, accessible
workspace. It is recommended to use a small bowl or cup to hold any screws so they are not lost during the disassembly /
assembly process.
1. TURN THE UNIT OFF.
2. REMOVE THE POWER CORD FROM THE WALL AND REAR OF THE UNIT.
3. CLEAN EXTERIOR OF UNIT IF NECESSARY
(see “Cleaning unit - Exterior”: page 10).
DISASSEMBLY
REMOVING THE REAR COVER
1. Using your screw driver, remove the Rear Cover Screw from the Rear Cover (above the Power Cord Port). Place the Rear
Caver Screw where you will find it easily during reassembly.
2. Squeeze the tabs on both sides of the Rear Cover (where the grooves are) until they release and tilt the Rear Cover
upwards until the top tab releases. Clean with compressed air or a damp cloth. Set the Rear Cover aside.
3. Clean exterior of unit if necessary (see “Cleaning Unit - Exterior”: page 10).
REMOVING THE FILTER ASSEMBLY
1. Remove brass thumbscrews from the top corners of the Filter Assembly. Place brass thumbscrews where you will find
them easily during reassembly.
2. Grasp the top of the Filter Assembly and tilt away from the unit. Clean if necessary (see “Cleaning the Filter Assembly”:
page 10) and set the Filter Assembly aside.
REMOVING THE PURIFICATION PLATE
Grasp the Purification Plate on the ceramic and gently pull it out of the grooves on the sides. Clean (see “Cleaning the
Purification Plate”: page 10) and set the Purification Plate aside.
REMOVING THE PCO CELL

the tabs on the top and bottom of the PCO Cell Power Connector and pull gently until free from the PCO Cell Power
Connector Outlet.
2. Remove the thumb nuts from the screw posts on the right and left below the PCO Cell. Place the thumb nuts where you
will find them easily during reassembly.
3. Gently slide the PCO Cell out of the unit. Clean (see “Cleaning the PCO Cell“: page 10) and set the PCO Cell aside. Clean
the interior of the unit (see “Cleaning the Unit - Interior”: page 10).
ASSEMBLY
INSTALLING THE PCO CELL
1. Position the PCO Cell inside the unit so that the two tabs are on the bottom (and interior side) of the PCO Cell. Ensure the
holes in the two tabs fit over the two screw posts. Screw the thumb nuts onto the screw posts until they are snug.
2. Align the PCO Cell Power Connector to the PCO Cell Power Connector Outlet and insert gently until the tabs at the top
and bottom of the PCO Cell Power Connector snap into piace, holding it in the PCO Cell Power Connector Outlet.
