USE AND CARE
INSTALLATION OF FILTER CARTRIDGES
1. Install the filter adapter to the upper chamber by turning
clockwise until you feel a tight and secure fit.
Ensure the "O-Ring" is in place and not bulging outward.
2. Remove filter cartridges from packaging.
3. Tightly screw cartridges into the holes on the bottom side of the adapter to
obtain a complete seal with the O-ring. Do not over-tighten as the O-ring will
become warped and not seal completely allowing unfiltered water to leak to the
lower chamber and your water will not read "000"(see ZeroWater
components on page 4).
4. Place upper chamber with attached filter cartridges back onto the lower chamber
divider rim of the lower chamber (see ZeroWater
page 4).
If new filters are exposed to cold temperatures for prolonged periods, keep filters at
room temperature for several hours before passing water through the first time.
USING YOUR FILTER BOTTLE WITH A STANDARD
WATER COOLER
1. Unplug your cooler.
2. Drain all water from the cooler using the spigots and the drain plug in the back
of the cooler. Using a cooler without water in it, when plugged in, can cause it
to smoke and break. Make sure you secure the drain plug when you are finished
draining the cooler.
3. Be sure you have removed the splashguard from the cooler reservoir. Refer to
page (2) for directions.
4. Clean the reservoir and spigots by mixing 1 tablespoon of baking soda into 1
gallon of hot water and pouring the solution directly into the cooler reservoir.
5. Let solution sit for about 30 minutes and then drain through spigots and drain
plug.
6. Flush the cooler with three gallons of plain hot water using same method. Secure
the drain plug. The total capacity of the bottom chamber is three gallons.
7. Do not replace the splashguard or spike fixture.
8. Now your cooler is ready for your assembled ZeroWater
before plugging cooler back into electrical outlet (See step 6 under section "Filling
the ZeroWater
(sold separately)
Filter Bottle with Tap Water on page 7)."
