    Important to Remember Pre-filter Installation & Maintenance • You must run 2-3 gallons of water through the pre-filters before you connect them to the ionizer. To do this, install the pre-filters into their housings, connect a piece of tubing to the outlet con- nection on the pre-filter housing and run it into the sink so you can flush them out with water.
  • Page 11 Settings • Flow rate must be set before adjusting or running your ionizer. • Set flow rate no higher than 2.5 liters per minute. Anything higher could cause internal damage. • When adjusting the settings, the buttons must be pressed quickly as failure to do so will result in booting you out of the program menu.

  • Page 48 Alkaline minerals produce positively-charged ions which gather at the negative electrode. These minerals chemically combine with hydroxyl ions taken from water molecules and form mineral hydrates. Carbonate produces negatively charged ions which gather at the positive electrode and combine with water to create a weak solution of carbonic acid.
  • Page 49 Q: Where is the serial number located? A: On the back of the ionizer, you will see a bar code sticker. The serial number is located below the bar code. Q: What should be done if the machine is not to be used for 7 days or more? A: Remove the filter from the main body, wrap in plastic wrapping, and store in a refrigerator.
