HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL ______________________________ This manual describes how to install, maintain and use the Simplicity. It is recommended that this document is completely read before plugging in the unit to a source of electrical power. The system is easy to use and to maintain. However, it is wise to be familiar with all its functions as described in this manual.
_________________________________________ INTRODUCTION General Information ______________________________________ Simplicity is a water purification system fed through an integrated vented storage reservoir. The system 5 provides the final “polish” to remove any remaining contaminants in water pretreated by reverse osmosis, electrodeionization (Elix), distillation or deionization. The Simplicity system is designed to produce water of Type 1 quality.

INSTALLATION ___________________________________________ Filling the Integral Reservoir _______________________________ Figure 3 1. 2. 3. Raise the reservoir-locking handle to vertical position. (A) Pull out the reservoir (B) using the locking handle. Remove the reservoir cap (C) by twisting counter-clockwise 1/4 turn. 4. Fill the reservoir, re-install it and secure the locking handle into the body of the system. Installing the Reservoir Vent Filter ___________________________ 1. 2.
___________________________________________ INSTALLATION Electrical connection ______________________________________ The electrical wall outlet must be accessible in the event that the Simplicity must be unplugged quickly. To turn off the Simplicity, remove the power cord from the wall outlet. The AC plug is the main disconnect for the system. 1. 2. 3. Connect the power cord to a grounded power source. If necessary, put the system in STANDBY mode by depressing the OPERATE/STANDBY button for two seconds.
INSTALLATION ___________________________________________ Purging the Pak __________________________________________ 1. Install the connector (Figure 2,C) into the POU valve. Note: 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Do not use Teflon tap on the connector tread. The seat of the valve contains an O-ring seal. The part should turn easily. Do not force, otherwise the valve thread could be damaged. Position a container under the outlet fitting. Move the dispensing valve button down to open the valve.
__________________ STANDARD OPERATING OF THE SIMPLICITY The simplicity system should be used in the manner specified by this user’s manual, otherwise the protection provided by this equipment may be impaired. Maintaining a minimum level of water in the reservoir _________ The simplicity is fed through the reservoir located at the back of the unit. Whenever the water in the reservoir reaches half a liter level it is recommended to refill it. If the simplicity runs out of water, proceed as follows: 1. 2. 3.
STANDARD OPERATING OF THE SIMPLICITY __________________ These different modes are displayed on the screen, and are described below: OPERATING MODE DISPLAY STATUS OF SYSTEM STANDBY While in this mode, the system is not producing purified water. Periodic recirculation is performed. OPERATE PROD:18.2 MΩ.cm System is running. Purified water can be delivered by opening the dispensing valve.

MAINTENANCE __________________________________________ Replacing the consumables ________________________________ 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Put the Simplicity into STANDBY mode by pressing the OPERATE button. Do not turn off the electrical power to the system. Remove the old SimFilter ( Figure 5,B) from the Point of Use valve. Open the Point Of Use valve for a few seconds to depressurize the system. Swing the Pack locking handle (Figure 4,E) to the left by pressing on the locking tab (4,A).
_________________________________________ MAINTENANCE 18. 19. 20. Press the OPERATE button to go from STANDBY to OPERATE mode Open the POU valve and draw around 0.5 litre of water through the SimFilter. Switch the unit to STANDBY mode. The SimFilter should be changed whenever the product flowrate becomes too low (< 0.3 Litres/mn) or whenever the SimPak is replaced.
MAINTENANCE __________________________________________ WARNING: 5. 6. Verify that there is no electrical power going to the Pack at this time. Accidental exposure to Ultraviolet light can cause damage to the eyes and skin. Push the UV lamp clip to the left and remove it (Figure 6,A). The UV lamp can now be removed from the housing (Figure 6,B). Using the new UV Lamp, follow steps 1-5 in reverse order. Note: Use the gloves to avoid getting fingerprints on the new UV lamp.
_________________________________________ MAINTENANCE Shutting down the system for an extended period of time ______ Keep the Simplicity in STANDBY mode when water is not needed for a few days. In this mode, the unit will operate all cycles to keep the water quality optimum. If the Simplicity is to be shut down for a long time, drain the reservoir, remove the SimPak and Simfilter, and unplug the system. Upon start-up, new cartridges should be installed.
TROUBLESHOOTING ______________________________________ Troubleshooting table _____________________________________ Whenever the Yellow SERVICE LED is blinking, a message is displayed on the screen, which indicates the nature of the service needed. STATUS / PROBLEM There is no electrical power to the system. CAUSE REMEDY - No electrical power. Check the source of power. - The power cord is not plugged Check the power cord. into the wall. The Simplicity system is in - The tank is empty.
