PROBLEM

CAUSE

A) Water distiller does not
operate.

1. Water distiller is not plugged in securely to the

wall outlet or the circuit breaker is off.

2. Power switch on the water distiller is turned off.
3. Reset button has shut the unit off. The reset

button will shut the unit off if the water distiller
has overheated, it may be reset once the water
distiller has cooled off. This may also indicate a
problem and should be looked at by a service
center. The reset button is a safety feature and
is designed to shut the water distiller down
should it overheat. Push your finger through the
hole in the front cover labelled ‘Manual Reset’ to
reset. It will snap once reset.

4. Reset button is faulty and needs to be replaced.

Call Service Center.

B) Water is coming out from
the top of the charcoal filter.

1. Charcoal is old and compacted. Replace

coconut charcoal. See Maintenance section-
Replacing Charcoal in Charcoal Filter Canister.

2. Charcoal filter is more than 2/3 full. There must

be an air gap between the charcoal and the top
of the filter. Remove Charcoal filter and make
sure charcoal filter is only 2/3 full.

C) Steam or water is
escaping from the top of the
cooling coil.

1. The cooling coil is equipped with a gas release

vent, a very small hole in the top of the coil. This
is to release certain volatile gases. Steam may
escape from this hole. This is normal.

2. If little or no water is being produced the cooling

coil may have become disconnected from the
boiling tank. Call Service Center.

Troubleshooting

Caution! Always Disconnect Water Distiller Electrical plug and Let the

Water Distiller cool down completely before completing any

Troubleshooting.
