6. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If an extension cord must be used, its marked electrical rating must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the Distiller. Electrical rating is found on bottom of Distiller. 7. To protect against fire, electrical shock, and injury to persons, DO NOT immerse power cord or Distiller in water or liquid. 8. DO NOT operate with a damaged cord or plug, after a malfunction, or if the Distiller has been damaged in any manner. Return to an authorized service facility for examination and repair. 9. This Distiller is recommended for use with potable water only. DO NOT attempt to make safe drinking water from non-potable water sources. DO NOT use briny (sea) water as this will damage certain compo- nents and will void warranty. 1 0. Operate in a well-ventilated area away from other heat sources. Provide adequate air space (at least 4-6 inches from walls or cabinets) when in use. DO NOT place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven. DO NOT place, store, or stack anything on top of or against sides of Distiller while in operation. 2 Waterwise 9000 Distiller Use & Care Guide... - Page 3 1 6. DO NOT use appliance for other than intended use. ELECTRIC CORD STATEMENT CAUTION: Your Distiller has a short cord as a safety precaution to prevent injury or property damage resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with the cord. DO NOT allow children to be near Distiller without close adult supervision. If you must use an extension cord with Distiller, the cord must be arranged so that it will not drape or hang over the edge of a countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over. To prevent electric shock, injury or fire, the electrical rating of the extension cord you use must be the same as, or more than wattage of the Distiller (wattage is indicated on bottom of Distiller). Plug Distiller into rated voltage AC grounded electric outlet ONLY (rated voltage found on bottom of product). The cord has a three-prong plug which mates with a standard three-prong grounded wall outlet. DO NOT cut or remove third prong from plug. If an adapter is used, be sure adapter wire and wall outlet are grounded. If there is any doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded, check with a qualified electrician. Unplug Distiller when not in use. WARNING: Never remove the boiler while the fan motor is running, or for 30 minutes after it stops. Severe burns can result from boiling water or steam. DO NOT change position or location of distiller while it is operating or cooling. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Waterwise 9000 Distiller Use & Care Guide...

Loosen steam baffle securing nut by turning counterclockwise and remove steam baffle (fig. D). 6 . Rinse boiler thoroughly before filling. The water should be drained through boiler spout. 7 . Fill boiler with ordinary tap water to bottom of four tabs in boiler opening, approximately 1 gallon (3.8 Liters). These tabs indicate the MAXIMUM FILL POINT. DO NOT OVERFILL (fig. D). 8 . Replace boiler cap by turning it clockwise until tight. 9 . Make sure gasket is installed on long end of steam baffle and that it is snug against flange (fig D). Insert long end of baffle, flat side down, into the boiler spout. Turn securing nut clockwise onto spout until tight, being careful to not cross thread.

- Page 8 NOTE: At the end of the distillation cycle (about 4.5 hours), Distiller will shut off automatically and “Start” light will go out. The fan will continue to operate for a few minutes. 15. Unplug cord from wall outlet when not in use. 16. DISCARD FIRST GALLON of distilled water as it may contain some harmless matter from manufacturing and/or packaging. 17. Rinse boiler thoroughly before refilling. IMPORTANT: Wipe off all water deposits inside the Distiller chassis and on the outside of the boiler before each distillation cycle. NOTE: The collector/dispenser bottle will not fill completely. The collec- tor was designed to hold 1 gallon of water and allow additional space so that the carbon filter does not remain in contact with the distilled water. Once distillation cycle is complete, the water bottle may be placed in refrigerator and used to dispense the distilled water. The filter cup may be left in or removed and stored in the refrigerator in a sealed plastic bag or other airtight container. Secure cap onto the bottle to avoid spilling. The cap must be opened slightly before dispensing water. It is recommended that the bottle NOT be placed in a freezer as handle may become brittle and crack. NOTE: Approximately 5 ounces (150 ml) of water will remain in boiler at the end of the distillation cycle. This feature reduces scale deposits in the boiler. WARNING: To prevent personal injury or electric shock, DO NOT immerse the Distiller, its boiler, its cord or plugs in water or other liquid. 8 Waterwise 9000 Distiller Use & Care Guide...
