Installation

Step 1

Take out the water pumping unit, clean the water tank manually, and fill the water tank with municipal tap water. Do not let the water level exceed the MAX line or fall below the MIN line.

(Diagram shows water pumping unit detached, then water tank being filled to MAX/MIN lines.)

Step 2

Remove the filter package and the paperboard. Align buckles of the filter to notches of the water pumping unit, and insert a new filter. After the new filter is installed in place, the bottom of the filter should be aligned with that of the water pumping unit, and there may be a slight mechanical sound.

(Diagrams show filter package removal, filter alignment and insertion into the water pumping unit.)

Step 3

Put the water pumping unit back into the water tank.

(Diagram shows water pumping unit being reinserted into the water tank.)

Step 4

Click the water dispensing key [dispense-key] twice to allow water to naturally flow out of the water outlet, and start to take water.

? NOTE: For better filtration, activate the filter first by flushing. When using it for the first time or after replacing it, please discard the first tank of filtered water and do not drink it. • If this system vibrates excessively on a table, it is recommended to put four foot pads at the bottom of the water tank. This system is not prone to sliding around in a refrigerator, so it is not suggested to install the foot pads.

Operation and Settings

Water Taking

Put a container or a cup under the water outlet. Activate the screen by clicking the water dispensing key [dispense-key], and click it again to dispense water.

(Diagram shows a cup under the water outlet, with an arrow indicating water dispensing.)

After taking water, click the water dispensing key [dispense-key] again to pause water dispensing.

? NOTE: This system comes with a long-time water taking protection function. After over 3 minutes of continuous water dispensing, the system will buzz once and automatically stop running.

Charging

The power indicator on the display screen flashes red to signal low battery. Charge the system by using a 5V-2A adapter and inserting a [USB-C] Cable into a side charging port of the water pumping unit.

(Diagram shows the charging port with a USB Type-C cable connected.)

After charging is done, the power indicator on the display screen stops flashing green and turns solid green.

? NOTE: Please charge the system by using a 5V 2A power adapter. The system can be used while being charged, and the charging time may last for 4-5 hours. If the charging current is smaller than 2A, the charging time will be prolonged beyond expectations and the simultaneous charging and usage functions will be disabled.

Filter Life and Replacement Guideline

a. Filter Life

Model: WD-EDF

Filter Life: Up to 3 months or 200 gallons

? NOTE: The filter life may vary based on water consumption and water quality.

b. Filter Replacement Guide

To remove the old filter, take out the water pumping unit. Push the bottom of the filter upwards to loosen it from the water pumping unit. Then, press the buckles on both sides of the filter to take the filter out of the water pumping unit.

(Diagrams show filter removal steps: detaching pumping unit, pushing filter upwards, pressing side buckles.)

? NOTE: There may be a small amount of water flowing out of the water pumping unit when pulling out the filter, so be sure to place a container underneath.

Remove the filter package and the paperboard on two sides. Align the buckles of the filter to notches of the water pumping unit, and insert a new filter. After the new filter is installed in place, the bottom of the filter is aligned with that of the water pumping unit, and there is a slight mechanical sound.

Hold the water dispensing key [dispense-key] for 3 seconds for filter resetting. After the filter is successfully reset, the filter life indicator turns blue.

After filter reset, it is highly recommended to flush it for at least 3 minutes before using.

? NOTE: For better filtration, activate the filter first by flushing. When using it for the first time or after replacing it, please discard the first tank of filtered water and do not drink it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Issues	Possible Causes	Solutions
No water dispensing or water flow gets smaller.	Please check if the system has power. Please check if the filter is installed. Please check if there is water in the water tank. Please check if the front filter head is clogged. Please confirm if the filter has expired.	If there is no power, please charge it with a charger. If not, please reinstall the filter. Please refill the water tank with water. If yes, please dismount the filter head and clean it. If yes, please timely replace the filter and reset it.
Water flow pauses or unit makes a brief noise during initial filter flush.	Neither is a concern and should only happen during installation as air is initially purged from the filter.	If the water flow pauses, press again to resume the water flow.
The battery life is shorter than 1 month.	The battery life will be shortened by about 50% if the system is used at a low temperature or in a refrigerator. The more frequently water is taken, the shorter the battery life will be.	/
The water dispensing key keeps flashing red after the new filter is installed.	Please check if filter resetting operation is required.	Hold the water dispensing key [dispense-key] for 3 seconds to reset the filter life indicator, and the filter life indicator turns blue from red after successful resetting.
TDS value is not reduced after filtration.	TDS stands for total dissolved solids. It is composed of inorganic salts and a small amount of organic matter. This system cannot reduce the TDS value because it removes harmful substances while keeping beneficial trace elements.	/
There are white bubbles in filtered water.	This is because the pump in the system produces pressure; when water flows out of the system, gas molecules expand into small bubbles due to sudden disappearance of pressure onto the gas molecules, resulting in the milk white phenomenon of water. However, this phenomenon will fade over time.	This is a normal physical phenomenon and has no influence on drinking of the filtered water.

Cleaning and Maintenance

It is recommended to clean the water tank with a brush once a month to avoid scale formation. Please keep in mind that organic solvents such as alcohol should not be used to clean it.

(Diagram shows cleaning the water tank with a brush.)

To avoid affecting system performance, it is recommended that the front filter head be dismounted and cleaned on a regular basis.

(Diagram shows detaching and cleaning the front filter head.)

If you are not going to use this system for an extended period of time, please empty the water tank first. It is recommended to remove the filter and store it in the cold storage layer of a refrigerator if it has not been used for more than 7 days, and to discard the first cup of filtered water when using it again.

Cautions of Built-in Battery

The built-in battery is non-removable; please do not disassemble it yourself to avoid reducing battery performance, damaging the battery, and even causing serious safety hazards such as overheating, fire disaster, and so on under extreme conditions.
If the system is not used for a long time, please charge it at least once every 3 months to avoid the condition that the system fails to work.
When the battery is low, please charge it as soon as possible to prevent the battery's service life from being shortened.
Do not expose the battery to any direct heat sources, including fire or direct sunlight.
The battery must be removed from the system before disposal.
Do not put the system or battery pack in fire, water, or other liquids to avoid any explosion risks.
Do not dispose of batteries in household waste, and please dispose of them according to local laws and regulations.
Do not heat the battery pack above 140°F (60°C) or incinerate it. Please keep it out of the reach of children.
