Congratulations on your purchase of the lotus® Water Treatment System. Your lotus® system utilizes the same ozone
technology employed by bottled water companies to kill up to 99.99% of bacteria like E. coli 0157:H7 that can sometimes
seep into your drinking water supply.
Perhaps you have had concerns about impurities, pathogens and the like finding there way into your family’s drinking
water or have been worried that the water filter you use cannot adequately deal with microbiological pathogens. Well,
your new lotus® Water Treatment System alleviates all those fears by using a proprietary 2-stage process to deliver safe,
fantastic tasting drinking water to you and your family. The first stage utilizes patented Oxyshield™ technology to infuse
the water with ozone, killing the microorganisms likely to be found in your drinking water. The second stage uses a
custom formulated carbon-block filter to capture any remaining contaminants including mercury, lead, chlorine and MTBE
while at the same time leaving good minerals such as calcium, magnesium and potassium for that great lotus® taste! By
utilizing this two stage process, your lotus® Water Treatment System eliminates up to an astounding 99.99% of the
pathogens that can sometimes be found in your water supply* (See the lotus Performance Data List on page 13-14 of
your Use & Care Guide for details).
Above all, you can rest assured that your lotus® system will dispense great tasting, microbiologically safe* drinking water
for your family because of the state-of-the-art, microprocessor that monitors and runs lotus®. In the unlikely event that
something was to go wrong, the microprocessor would automatically detect the problem and shut itself down.
Please feel free to thoroughly enjoy the comfort in knowing that your family will be drinking fantastic tasting,
microbiologically safe* water for many years to come.
Your lotus® Use & Care Guide contains many important safety features and operating instructions; please read it
carefully and retain this guide for future reference.
*Tested and verified by independent laboratory testing for the bacterial and protozoa claims on the Performance Data List
on page 16. NSF Certification for a microbiological claim is for Cyst Reduction only.
