Q&A
Before use
Isn't it possible to use underground water for the Alkaline Ionizer?
Underground water cannot be used.
The quality of undergoround water is unstable, so please use the tap water.
What is the point of the effects that the properties of source water (tap water) have on the water
produced by the Alkaline Ionizer?
Consult the table below.
The water obtained using the Alkaline Ionizer may not be sufficiently alkaline if the water has a high carbonic acid content.
In a case like this, boil the alkaline ion water to remove the carbonic acid and obtain the intended alkalinity. Also, in areas
where the hardness of water is high
With underground water or source water containing underground water, set the alkalinity to "Stronger" using the "pH
fine adjustment" since alkalinity may be hard to obtain when using the Alkaline Ionizer.

alkalinity.
Hardness of water: Whether water is classified as hard or soft depends on the concentration of the calcium and magnesium
in the water.
During use
I just drank some acidic water by
mistake. It is OK?
Small quantities (a glassful or so) will not cause any
problems.
However, you should not keep drinking acidic water.
If you have drunk large quantities by mistake and do
not feel well, consult a doctor.
Will the Alkaline Ionizer remove lead
(soluble lead) from the water?
Yes, it will.

What does a service life of 850 hours for
the electrolyzer mean?
This figure represents the total time that electrolysis
can be performed by the electrolyzer, and it means
that the electrolyzer will last for about 7 years when
the Alkaline Ionizer is used for 20 minutes a day.
The electrode plates are worn down by the electricity
passing to the electrolyzer. If the "H31" code appears
on the display, it means that the electrolyzer has
come to the end of its service life. Ask your dealer to
replace the electrolyzer.
