Safety Instructions & Symbols:
Source water requirements - Please pay attention to the source water
requirements outlined below prior to installing and operating your water
ionizer.
• The source water entering the water ionizer must meet applicable
local standards that make it suitable for drinking. Despite the unit’s
built-in water filter, it should NOT be attached to a water source not
meant for drinking. The purpose of the carbon filters is to remove
residual chlorine, other chemicals, and odors from water that is
already suitable for human consumption. The filter is NOT intended as
the sole purification source for the water ionizer - use in this manner
will void the warranty, reduce the unit’s performance, shorten it’s
operational life, and could jeopardize the health and life of anyone
drinking water that could potentially be harmful.
• The water flow entering the water ionizer from the source water
connection must be 0.8 liters per minute or faster for the water ionizer
to operate properly. If the water flow is too slow, the water ionizer may
not be able to induce water flow and therefore cannot start normally.
If your municipal or other water source flows slower than 0.8 liters per
minute, you may need to install a booster pump.
• The pressure of source water that goes into the unit must be under
43.5 pounds per square inch (psi)/.03 megapascals (MPa) for your
water ionizer to operate properly and to avoid damaging the unit. If
you water pressure is higher than this, you should install a water
pressure reducer to lower the source water pressure before it’s fed
into your water ionizer.

Health Issues: If any of the following apply to you, please consult your
physician before drinking or continuing to drink ionized alkaline water.
• You have kidney disease, renal failure, and/or have difficulty
discharging/eliminating potassium in which case you should generally
NOT ingest alkaline water;
• You are receiving medical treatment for another disease or illness;
• You are chronically ill or otherwise in very poor health.
Beginning to Drink Alkaline Water: Your body may take a while to get used
to drinking alkaline water.
• When drinking alkaline water for the first time, dispense the water
using your unit’s Alkaline 1 setting and consume only small amounts,
8 to 16 ounces (0.25 to 0.5 liters) per day.
• Continue this practice for at least 2 weeks prior to advancing to your
units higher pH value Alkaline 2 setting at which time you should try to
consume 32 to 64 ounces (1 to 2 liters) of alkaline water per day.
• Attempting to drink higher pH value water before your body becomes
used to alkaline water may result in temporary digestive,
dermatological, or other symptoms.
Alkaline Water & Medications: Do NOT drink alkaline water prior to, with, or
immediately following taking tablets or other oral medications. Instead,
use your unit’s “Purified Water,” i.e., filtered but not ionized, water setting.
As a general rule, you should not consume alkaline water within 45 mins.
to one (1) hour either before or after taking medication. This is to avoid
“time release” issues, unless approved by your medical professional.

Cosmetic Water Use: When using mildly acidic water from your water
ionizer’s Acidic 1 setting for skin care, as an astringent or for hair care,
please discontinue use and consult your physician if you develop a skin
rash or other allergic reaction.
CAUTION
CAUTION
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
Storing Ionized Water: Under normal temperature conditions, alkaline
water stored properly in a sealed, insulated container will retain its ionized
properties for at least 24 hours and up to 48 hours when refrigerated.
Alkaline levels may remain for longer periods.
• Do NOT store ionized water in metal containers. It should only be
stored in plastic, glass, or ceramic containers.
• Exposing the container to direct sunlight may shorten the period that
alkaline water is able to retain its ionized properties.
Pets & Ionized Water: Dogs, cats, and other mammals may benefit from
drinking ionized water. However there are a few simple rules:
• Especially if your animals have any preexisting health problems,
consult your local veterinarian before giving them alkaline water
and/or following any negative health reaction to the alkaline water.
• Start them off slowly on Alkaline 1 setting and keep them there for at
least 2 weeks prior to moving to the Alkaline 2 setting. As a general
rule, it’s probably best not to exceed 9.0 pH.
• Do NOT give your pet alkaline water within 45 mins. to 1 hour before
or after meals. Use the “Purified Water” setting instead. The higher pH
levels can neutralize their stomach acids making it more difficult for
them to absorb nutrients.
• As with humans, Do NOT give your pets ionized water within 45 mins.
to 1 hour prior to, with, or after taking medication. Doing so can alter
the intended absorption rate of the drug.
• While the Acidic 1 water setting can be used to treat your pet’s minor
wounds and improve its skin and coat, you should check carefully for
any allergic reactions or skin irritation.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Fish & Aquariums: Unless you are an experienced aquarium owner or
qualified aquatic life professional, do NOT introduce ionized water to your
aquarium without knowing the precise alkaline or acidic water settings
applicable to your particular fish species. Fish may become ill or die if
their water’s pH balance is changed or changed too quickly.
Exotic Pets: Lizards, snakes, turtles, frogs, and other reptiles and
amphibian species vary dramatically in the pH levels to which they are
suited. Please contact your vet or pet shop owner prior to giving them
ionized water.
Plants: Different plants thrive on water of varying pH levels. For example,
some plants prefer more alkaline environments while others perform
better in more acidic ones. Consequently, before watering your plants with
ionized water, you should determine specifically the type of pH balance
most conducive to the growth of your specific plants.
Flushing Residual Water: Because a certain amount of water remains
trapped in your water ionizer’s filters and tubing, you should briefly run
water through your ionizer prior to each use.
• In order to remove any residual water left in your water ionizer, you
should generally dispense water from the unit for approximately 5
seconds before each use.
• If you have not used the unit for at least 2 days, you should dispense
water from the unit for at least 3 minutes before using it.
Tainted & Leaking Water: If any of the following occurs, stop drinking
water from your ionizer immediately and contact Real Spirit USA at (888)
601-5886.
• Taste or pH testing levels reveal that water dispensed from the unit,
which should be alkaline, is coming out acidic;
• Residual water appears to be dripping from the unit.

Automatic Cleaning
Whenever the water ionizer is in any of the 5 alkaline modes or either of
the 2 acidic modes, ending water flow, either by turning off the faucet or
faucet diverter valve will cause your water ionizer to reverse electroplate
polarity and start the automatic cleaning process. This process lasts
approximately 10 seconds while the water expels from the unit.
A. In addition to the auto-cleaning function, your water ionizer also has
an extended Enhanced Cleaning function designed to help reduce the
buildup of calcium, magnesium, and other chemical and mineral
deposits on the unit's electroplates. The Enhanced Cleaning function
is triggered after approximately every 40 liters of water that has been
dispensed.
B. When enhanced cleaning is required, upon you pushing the Start/Stop
button to stop alkaline/acidic water production, the machine will say
"Cleaning is activated'. The water will continue to flow, the unit will
make a beeping chime, and a countdown from 30 will show on the
screen.
C. DO NOT drink the water during the enhanced cleaning, it will be
acidic.
D. When the cleaning finishes the water will stop on it's own.
E. NEVER unplug the unit or attempt to carry out other water ionizer
functions while the unit is in enhanced cleaning mode. Doing so may
damage your water ionizer.

Caution using store bought ORP Testers. Many of these testers are
designed for Fish Tanks and Swimming Pools only. These
NON-Professional ORP testers are not designed to be accurate after -100
ORP.
As a general rule, if your Ionizer is producing Alkaline Water it is also
producing negative ORP.
Every ionizer is tested with a Laboratory Certified ORP Tester before it
leaves our factory to ensure proper functionality.
Impact of Environmental & Other Factors on pH - Different regional,
environmental, and testing factors such as the quality, pH level, Total
Dissolved Solids (TDS), source water temperature, and the flow rate
through the water ionizer can all cause variations in the pH level of the
water dispensed from your water ionizer. For example, the referenced pH
preset values were derived from 68°- 77° F (20° - 25° C) source water with
a neutral pH of approximately 7.5, containing 100-150 parts per million of
TDS flowing at 2L (0.5 gal) per minute.
DO NOT use litmus paper to
evaluate pH. Most
commercially available
litmus paper is a much less
accurate tool for measuring
pH than the ionizer specific
pH reagent (testing liquid).

PH & ORP TESTING NOTES
17

NOTE: pH & ORP readings may vary by +/- .06 and +/- 100mV respectively, subjected to nature of inherent water
source, piping condition, water inflow rate, chlorine concentration and filter usage. Indicated pH readings are
obtained based on a pH 7.5 source water. All pH and ORP readings are attained based on quantitative sampling
basis. pH and ORP readings are subjected to natural deprecation.
Your water ionizer has 8 pH presets: 5 Alkaline, 1 Purified, and 2 Acidic.
Each is shown below, along with its control panel icon, factory set pH
range, and the general application(s) of each setting.
This setting is ideal for cooking since alkaline water dramatically
improves the flavor of veggies, rice, pasta, and soups. Water from this
setting is also perfect for washing fruits and veggies, removing not only
dirt and bacteria, but also chemical pesticides and fertilizers far more
effectively than regular tap water.
Drinking 2 or more glasses daily of alkalized water acts as a powerful
antioxidant and can help offset the effects of eating highly acidic foods
such as meats, egg yolks, fried foods, processed foods, coffee, and aids
in hydration.
If you are new to drinking ionized alkaline water, you should start by
drinking small amounts, at this level daily for a week or two before
progressing to the higher setting since it may take your body a short
while to adjust to the higher alkaline water setting.
This setting supercharges your water with antioxidants as it ionizes.
This antioxidant-rich water is microclustered, making it easier for your
cells to absorb, increasing hydration. These antioxidants also battle free
radicals that damage your cells.
Alkaline water at this setting enhances the flavor, color, and aroma of
both coffee and tea.
