Please note when using:
Filtration range : Water purifiers with a pore size of 0.1 micron can only filter impurities and microorganisms, but cannot filter dissolved liquids (such as salt water) or colored liquids; they do not contain activated carbon and cannot completely remove odors from the water. TDS test pens cannot detect the external filtering effect of a water purifier.
Correct use direction : It must be installed and used correctly according to the water outlet direction.
First time use : The filter membrane needs to be wetted and it is normal for the water flow to be slow.
Avoid high water pressure : Do not connect the filter directly to the faucet. High water pressure may damage the internal filter fiber membrane. (Please choose the method of use according to the pressure resistance of the style)
Antifreeze measures : Avoid freezing the filter, which may damage the fiber membrane. Take good care of the filter in cold weather. The recommended water temperature is no more than 45 degrees Celsius.
Backwash cleaning :
When the filter water flow slows down, backwash cleaning is required:
First, inject a small amount of clean or purified water into the filter.
Use the matching syringe, connect it to the end of the filter, and backwash the filter element with clean water several times according to the pressure until the cleaning is complete.
Cleaning and storage :
It is recommended to clean and disinfect the filter after each use to extend its service life.
Cleaning the filter : Clean the filter by backflushing and disinfect it by adding a few drops of bleach or disinfectant to 500ml of clean water.
Pipe fittings cleaning : Rinse the water pipe and water bag together.
Dry and store : After removing moisture, place in a ventilated place for at least one night and store after drying.
Prevent dust from entering : Store in a sunny place at room temperature and use bottle caps to prevent small animals from entering.
