DOs & DON'Ts
Pureit Excella has been specially designed to give you water that is completely protected from
harmful germs as long as the Pureit system is used in the way as prescribed in this manual.
Listed below are the things that you must take care of:
DOs
Clean the top lid, the Top Chamber, the Cleansing Collection Chamber
and the tap regularly
Clean with water and then leave the components to 'drip dry'
Clean the tap with a mild hypochlorite solution
If necessary, use a plastic brush to aid cleaning
Remove the Germkill Processor while cleaning and keep upright in a
dry place
Empty the water from the Cleansing Collection Chamber before removing
the Microcharged Membrane Assembly
Remove the Germkill Processor before emptying out the water from the
Cleansing Collection Chamber
The Pureit Excella guarantee of getting water that is completely protected
from harmful germs applies only if you ensure that the Transparent
Chamber of the purifier and the tap are hygienically kept, and that germs
are not introduced due to contact with hands, drying with a cloth or
any other means
You should only store water in Pureit and not use other bottles and
containers, to avoid re-contamination of the water
During the functioning of the device all the components of the Germkill
kit need to be present in the device
You should ensure that the area around and beneath the purifier is kept
clean at all times
Keep all components of the Pureit Germkill Kit out of reach of children
at all times
Ensure that the purifier is placed on a flat surface at all times, and
never tilt the Transparent Chamber to take out water
If you ever want to shift the purifier, do so only after both the
Top Chamber and Cleansing Collection Chamber are empty. Otherwise the
purifier may leak, and the purification process may get affected
Always rely only on the red Indicator to replace the Germkill Kit. The
Auto Shut-off is only an additional assurance of safety – in some cases,
the input water quality may prevent it from functioning
Output water may continue to have flora which are harmless and pose
no health hazard to normal healthy adults and children
Always clean the Pureit system only as described in the section on
cleaning
Over a period of time you may find fine floating particles or scaling in
Transparent Chamber because of natural minerals in the source water, in
such case just clean the Transparent Chamber with purified water
If you are planning not to use the purifier for a period more than 2
days, you need to empty out the entire purifier including the Transparent
Chamber, the Cleansing Collection Chamber, the Batching Chamber, and
the Top Chamber.
DON'Ts
Do not clean the Pureit system with soap or detergent of any abrasive
cleaners or tools like wire mesh
Do not twist the Microfiber Mesh/Sediment Filter while cleaning.
The Microfiber Mesh might change color over a period of time.
This does not affect the performance of Microfiber Mesh
Ensure that you don't inadvertently introduce germs into the Transparent
Chamber or the tap e.g. through your hands or by using a drying cloth.
Always use purified Pureit water for doing the last rinse of the Transparent
Chamber, and then let it drip-dry
Do not normally wash the Cleansing-Collection Chamber
Do not pour boiling or hot water (more than 50˚C) or freezing cold water
(less than 10˚C) into, or on the Pureit system.
Do not pour hot water directly from an overhead tank or any other source
in your Pureit as hot water uses up the Germkill Kit faster than normal. If
required, allow the water to cool to room temperature before pouring it in
the Top Chamber. For the same reason do not keep your Pureit Excella in hot
surroundings like direct sunlight, near a stove or near a fridge
Never buy the Pureit Excella system, or a Pureit Excella Germkill Kit from an
unauthorized source. You can visit a store near you to buy a Germkill Kit or call
us at the Pureit helpline to locate our nearest dealer
Don't in any way try to open the Pureit Excella Germkill Kit components
Do not use the Pureit system once the Germkill Life Indicator shows fully red
Don't expose any of the components to fire
Don't drop any of the components, or the purifier as a whole from a height.
This may cause the components to crack or break, and the guarantee of
getting water that is completely protected from harmful germs will no longer
be valid
Don't put any chemical fluids in the Pureit system. This is meant strictly for
drinking water only
If the Transparent Chamber is full, please do not fill water in the
Top Chamber, otherwise water will overflow from the Transparent Chamber
Do not try to open the Germkill Processor
Do not pour water in the purifier once the Germkill Life Indicator turns fully
red, thus preventing overflow due to Auto Shut-off mechanism. This will ensure
that no one is hurt by slipping or damages to household items kept near
the purifier due to leaked water
Do not use the Germkill Kit after expiry – which is post two years from
the date of packing
Do not keep the Pureit purifier in direct sunlight or near the window as it
may trigger growth of algae / appearance of green mass in purified water
Do not use water not intended for drinking in Pureit Excella system e.g., from
abandoned or abused water bodies or water sources in which human, animal or
industrial wastes are disposed, or water that is excessively acidic or alkaline
Water stored for more than two days may trigger growth of algae and
increase number of normal water flora causing turbidity / bad taste of
purified water and hence should not be consumed
Do not remove the Batching Chamber from the Cleansing Collection Chamber.
If it gets removed accidentally, then replace the parts in proper location,
as was assembled initially for consistent performance
Do not meddle with the Microcharged Membrane else it will get damaged
and you might get unsafe water
Don't drink water from the purifier if any one of the Germkill Kit
components is not fitted
