Before you shut it off, please drain the internal pure water tank and feed water tank. And placing the system out of direct sunlight on a dry, and secure surface in ambient room temperature.
Before you use it again. To ensure the freshness of the drinking water, clean the feed water tank first, and than flush the system once. (Depending on the water quality of your water source, you can reduce the number of flushes appropriately.)
Feed Water Tank Cleaning
To maintain your System, it’s recommended to clean the Feed Water Tank and components after every months of use; this helps to extend the service life of the filter elements. Check the Feed Water Tank strainer, diversion sleeve, and two check valves located on the bottom of the Tank are clean.

How To Descale Your Water Purifier
Limescale can clog up the machine and disrupt water flow. If you start experiencing slow water flow or all the indicator lights flashing, it is time to maintain it.
1.Purpose:
To clean the scale in the RO machine system (such as pipes, valves, pumps, RO membranes, etc.)
2. Maintenance Frequency:
Good tap water quality(TDS<150ppm): every 6 months;
Fair tap water quality(150<TDS<250ppm): every 2 months;
Poor tap water quality(250<TDS<450ppm): every month;
Bad tap water quality(TDS>450ppm): every 2 weeks.
3. Maintenance Steps
Step1:
Make one of the following DIY solutions or use a commercial descaling solution.
(1) Citric acid solution: Add 5 liters of tap water to the feed water tank, then add 100 grams (about 10 tablespoons) of citric acid powder and stir well.
5L tap water + 100g (about 10 tablespoons) of citric acid powder
(2) White vinegar solution: Add 2.5 liters of tap water to the feed water tank, then add 2.5 liters of white vinegar, and stir well.
Add 2.5L tap water + 2.5L white vinegar
Step2:
Put the feed water tank with the prepared solution back on the machine and plug it in.
Step3:
Push and hold the Flushing button for 5s, you will hear 1-beep, the Flushing button will be on, and the System will flush the membrane for 60 seconds and stop. Repeat this flushing step five times.
Step4:
Unplug the power and let it stand for 2 hours.
Step5:
Remove the feed water tank, empty these solutions, and clean the feed water tank with tap water.
Step6:
Fill the feed water tank with tap water and put it back in the correct place, then plug in the power supply for waiting until the “filtering” indicator go off; press the “Flushing” button to dispense water to flushing the system, which removes the odor or taste of the descaling solution. If the sour taste remains, please repeat for a few more rounds until the water tastes good.
Note: If the scale is very serious or the problem is still not solved after maintenance, please repeat steps 1-6 one more time.

The Feed Water Tank is not installed correctly, check if it’s located onto the
System base precisely.
Feed Water tank level too low, drain concentrate and refill the Tank with
freshwater; check the Filtering indicator is lit.
The System does not dispense water| The internal pure water reservoir (non-
Feed Water Tank) is low, and the Pure Water Shortage indicator is lit. Wait
5-10 mins before dispensing water (Pure Water Shortage indicator light is
off).
3
| The System doesn’t operate or respond to the control buttons, or lights
don’t illuminate.| System is locked or stuck. Unplug the unit from the
electrical outlet for 3 minutes then reconnect.

times. And then push the Flushing button to empty the internal pure water tank
and feed water tank.
5
| The System makes excessive noise during operation
Note: The System does make noise when processing water; this is normal.
| The Feed Tank water level is very low. Empty the Feed Water Tank and refill
with fresh potable (tap) water.
There’s an air blockage in the water production system. Unplug the unit from
the electrical outlet for 3 minutes then reconnect. Flush the System 1-3
times before using (Page 9).
Water quality is poor; filters have been blocked early (before replacement
schedule). Replace both filters.
6
| All the lights flashing twice| Plug it in. All indicator lights will be on and flashing twice, this is a self-check program. No action required
7
| All the lights keep flashing| If the system continues filtering water for
more than 30 mins “Safety Protection” is activated, will beep 10x and all
lights will flash. Reset the System by reconnecting the electrical power.(Page
12)
The stainless steel filter of the feed water tank inlet is clogged. Please
follow the page 18 to clean it.
The filter elements are clogged by impurities. Push and hold the Flushing
button for 5s, observe whether there is flushed water in the feed water tank
drain out from the water outlet, if no or the water flow is low, please
