It is important to wipe off all water deposits inside the distiller chassis, on
the base of the chassis and also all water deposits on the outside bot tom
of the boiling chamber between each distillation cycle. If this is not done,
corrosion of the distiller or electrical hazard may occur or it may cause the
distiller to shut off early, before producing a full gallon of water.
Heavy scale deposits should be removed from the boiling chamber whenever

the boiling chamber so that the scale deposits are covered. Allow the vinegar to
stand for at least twenty minutes and then discard. Rinse the boiling chamber.
Repeat this process if necessary. Do not heat vinegar in boiling chamber. A
descaler or coffeemaker or kettle cleaner may also be used to clean the boiling
chamber.
WATER BOTTLE
To Sanitize Water Bottle: It is recommended that this be done whenever an
undesirable taste is detected in your distilled water. See page 4 under Prepare
Your Distiller for instructions on sanitizing the water bottle.
OUTSIDE SURFACES
Use a common household glass or appliance cleaner or a damp soft cloth to clean
the distiller's outside surfaces. Do not use abrasive or solvent based cleaners. Do
not spray cleaning products directly onto the distiller.
The distiller's cooling system vents (see diagram on page 4) should be vacuumed
occasionally or cleaned with a soft brush to remove dust and debris. Failure to do
so may cause the distiller to overheat, shut off early, or emit a foul odor.
CARBON FILTER
Your distiller comes with a disposable filter cup. The filter cup should be replaced
every two months or whenever an undesirable taste is detected in the distilled
water. See page 4.
NOTE: Underwriters Laboratories Inc., has not investigated the
physiological effect of the use of the carbon filter, beneficial or otherwise.
Cleaning the Surfaces
- Allow the distiller to cool down fully and disconnect the appliance from the
main electrical outlet before cleaning.
- Do not immerse the distiller or base in water.
- Use a soft dampened cloth to wipe the outside of the distiller and dry with a
soft, dry cloth.
- DO NOT use metal polish or harsh scouring agents.
- Ensure that all connectors and sockets are kept dry.
