9 Maintaining your STATIM
9.7 Maintaining Fluid Levels
1. The water reservoir level is continually monitored by your STATIM. If the reservoir is low, a red X will
appear on the water icon
confirm that it is a water level issue and not a water quality issue.
2. If the reservoir is low, a
3. To fill the reservoir, use only steam-processed distilled water containing less than 5 ppm total
dissolved solids (having conductivity of less than 10 μS / cm). Remove the cap from the top of the
unit and fill the reservoir. We recommend using a funnel to minimize spills. Each time you refill the
reservoir, empty the waste bottle and refill with water to the MIN line. Empty the waste bottle often
to avoid unpleasant odors and discoloration of the contents. (A low-level chlorine-free disinfectant,
prepared according to the manufacturer's instructions, may be added to the waste bottle to remedy
this situation).
9.8 Reading Water Quality
1. The water quality is continually monitored by your STATIM to ensure that only steam-process distilled
water is being used. If the water quality is beyond the tolerances specified above, a red X will appear
on the water icon
that it is a water quality issue and not a water level issue.
2. If the water quality not suitable,
3. Using the drain tube (see Section Priming the Pump, Figure 6) empty the contents of the reservoir into
the water container and replace with steam-process distilled water containing less than 5 ppm total
dissolved solids (having conductivity of less than 10 μS / cm).
