Tank Filling and Water Treatment Note: A large bucket is required for filling (Not included). In areas where tap water quality is known to be poor, FDF recommends the use of distilled water. Open the tank plug and insert hose into tank (rotating the impeller slightly may be necessary to allow the hose to pass), move the tank adjuster handle to level 20 and begin filling.
Long term water treatment: Water treatment schedules for the E820 will vary according to the fluid tanks exposure to sunlight but expect 8-12 months near a bright, sunlit window and 2-4 years for a darker location. At the point of finding the water slightly green, add a Chlorine tablet.
