notications and manage orders – all from their computers or mobile devices.
User Management
The account owner can create proles for Smartwell users, building a connected network across units. If you are a
lease customer, your lease company will provide you with a user account.

service history.

2. Choose the desired unit from the Unit Listings page by clicking on the appropriate line item. A detailed unit
status screen will appear and summarize pouch, CO2 and lter levels.

personal touch, upload a custom image of your choice to display on each unit’s screen.
Notications

•Low/empty pouches (low are yellow, empty are red)
