 1. Please do not drink the water that is used to clean up
the pipeline.
2. During the cleaning of the distiller, please avoid any water
contacting to the sockets and power cords, in order to
avoid electric shock or causing a short circuit.
3. Hot water can reduce the heating time, thus shorten the
distillation period.
4. A maximum of 4 liters (up until the “FULL” line) of
distilled water can be produced for each distillation.
The distiller can produce less than 4 liters of distilled
water according to individual needs.
