Steam Sterilization Operation Switches Diagram
5. Refer to Steam Sterilization Operation Switches Diagram above. Turn
only the power and water switches ON. Leave the fan switch OFF. As the
water distiller continues to heat up, it will sterilize the water distiller head,
filter canister and storage tank with steam by allowing pure steam to travel
out of the cooling coil. Water and steam will drip from the storage tank
valve. Caution: The Water Distiller is extremely hot during
sterilization.
6. Leave the water distiller on for 1 hour.
7. After sterilization cycle is complete. Turn the fan switch ON and allow any
water in the cooling coil to drain. Leave the water distiller running with the
fan on for about 15 minutes.

fan) and let the water distiller cool down for approximately 1 hour.
9. After cooling down, the water distiller may need to be tipped or rocked
forward and back to remove all the water from the storage tank.
