3 Setting up your STATIM
3.4 Filling the Water Reservoir
When filling the reservoir, ensure you only use steam processed distilled water containing
less than 5 ppm total dissolved solids (having conductivity of less than 10 µS / cm).
The impurities and additives in other water
sources will cause an error reading on the LCD.
To fill the reservoir, follow these steps
(see Figure 5):
1. Remove the reservoir cap ..
2. Pour steam-process distilled water into the
reservoir until almost full (a maximum of 4L).
Use a funnel to avoid spillage.
3. Replace and secure the cap.
3.5 Priming the Pump
To prime the STATIM pump, follow these steps:
1. Move the unit to the edge of the work
surface. The front leveler feet should be
approximately 12 mm from the edge.
2. Lift the front left corner of the unit upward
and remove the drain tube from the clip
located on the underside of the unit.
3. Pull the drain tube outward so the free end
can be positioned over a water container.
4. Fill the reservoir with steam-process distilled water.
5. Remove the plug from the end of the drain tube and allow water to drain from the
tube into a container for 30 seconds. When the water flows in a steady stream, replace
the stopper.
6. Lift the front left corner of the unit upward and reinsert the tube into the clip on the
underside of the unit. Push the excess length of tubing back into the space provided.
Make sure the plug in the drain tube is secure.
