STATUS INDICATOR LIGHTS
The ridge is the water level
4. While the indicator light is RED, your HYDROSTIK or HYDROSTIK PRO cartridge is being filled with hydrogen.
The HYDROSTIK or HYDROSTIK PRO cartridge is fully charged when the indicator lights GREEN. When
completed, disconnect the HYDROSTIK or HYDROSTIK PRO cartridge from the HYDROFILL PRO (turn
anti-clockwise to disconnect).
Note: 1. It will be normal to hear short bursts or puffs during the refilling procedure, due to water
being purged from the system from time to time.
2. It will be normal to hear the sound of air being released when the HYDROSTIK or HYDROSTIK PRO is disconnected from the
HYDROFILL PRO.
