before using. (P. EN7)
Preparation time may become longer
z
such as when water quality is switched
during water flow, after acidic water
is used, and when purified water
or alkaline ion water is used after
automatic electrode cleaning.
The color of water quality signal
z
changes according to the type of
selected water.
y Alkaline 1–3 : Blue
y Purified water : Green
y Acidic water : Pink
