4 Before First Use
•
Wash and rinse out the plastic water tanks thoroughly before use. (Refer to
Cleaning Section)
•
Remove the filter from its packaging then fully cover and soak the filter in
cold clean water for 30 minutes and then rinse off under cold clean running
tap water.
•
You may notice a fine black dust come out of the filter. This will happen on
all new filters and when water is filtered through it the first couple of uses.
This is no cause for alarm. It is just the dust from the activated carbon
inside the filter. Although it looks unsightly, will not harm you.
It is recommended that after the filter has finished soaking, been rinsed
and then fitted to the chiller unit, fill the chiller tank and operate the taps to
allow all the water to flush through and to remove any remaining black
dust. Repeat a second time. The discarded water can be used on your
plants without harm.
•
Ensure the rubber stopper, as shown in Fig. A, is inserted correctly as
shown in Fig. B before placing base water tank onto the chiller.
