The disinfectant, sodium hypochlorite (concentration approx. 3.5%, odourless), can be purchased from supermarkets or chemists. The disinfectant must be kept out of reach of children! Wash your hands after using it. 1. 2. Check that the water purifier is in standby mode. Press the service button, using a pen, until the service light comes on. Release the button.
