Point-of-Use Drinking Water System OWNERS MANUAL Congratulations on the purchase of your new Sterilight Point-of-Use Drinking Water System. This unit is designed to operate for years with minimal maintenance. If you have any questions regarding the operation of the unit, these instructions, or how to obtain service on the unit, please contact your local Sterilight dealer, or contact Sterilight at www.r-can.com.
UNPACKING & INSPECTION Before proceeding with installation of your Sterilight Unit, please carefully unpack and inspect it. Figure 1 illustrates all the major components of the system, shown with the standard faucet diverter (your unit may vary slightly from photo). If anything appears to be broken or missing, please contact your Sterilight dealer.
INSTALLATION Shipped with the faucet diverter, your Sterilight unit is ready for installation on most kitchen faucet heads. A. STAND MOUNTING: Find a suitable location for your unit, and simply place it with the stand provided. Excess hose and/or power cord may be wrapped inside the unit’s stand (Figure 2).

2. Locate a solid mounting surface (such as a wall stud). Attach the mounting hardware (Figure 7) and the unit (Figure 8). The Sterilight unit generates ozone from surrounding air. Locate the unit in an area where the air is breathable and free from dust or fumes.
2. If the diverter supplied with the unit will not attach directly to your faucet, install the adapter. When done, or if the adapter is not needed, connect the Sterilight unit diverter valve assembly to the faucet (Figure 10). 3. Plug the power supply into an available outlet.
PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING 1. The Sterilight unit is NOT designed to operate with hot water. Run only cool tap water through the unit. 2. The ultraviolet lamp in the unit has a useful life of 10,000 on-off cycles or more. One cycle could be a small cup of water or a large pitcher. To maximize the life of the lamp, it is best to get a pitcher to store in the refrigerator for drinking during the day, as opposed to running it several times to draw individual glasses of water.
