This manual describes the AquaTru Carafe Sliding Tray, an accessory designed to enhance the usability of the AquaTru countertop water purifier. The tray provides a stable and movable platform for the AquaTru unit, allowing users to easily slide the purifier to a desired position on a countertop.
Function Description:
The AquaTru Carafe Sliding Tray is a specialized accessory for the AquaTru AT100 countertop water purifier. Its primary function is to provide a convenient and ergonomic solution for moving the AquaTru unit on a kitchen countertop. The tray features an inset area where the AquaTru purifier sits securely. A key operational feature is a lever on the side of the tray that controls a roller lock mechanism. When this lever is pressed in and held, the tray unlocks, allowing it to be pushed or pulled to a new position. Releasing the lever locks the tray in place, preventing unintended movement. This sliding functionality is particularly useful for accessing the back of the unit, refilling the water tank, or simply repositioning the purifier for better counter space management or aesthetic reasons. The design ensures that the AquaTru unit remains stable and fully contained within the tray's inset area during movement.
Important Technical Specifications:
- Compatibility: Specifically designed for use with the AquaTru AT100 countertop water purifier.
- Movement Mechanism: Features a roller lock system controlled by a side lever for smooth sliding and secure locking.
- Material: While not explicitly stated, the tray is designed for household use on kitchen countertops, implying durable and water-resistant materials suitable for such environments.
- Dimensions: The tray is sized to accommodate the AquaTru AT100 unit, ensuring it sits fully inside the inset area. Specific dimensions are not provided in the manual but are implied by its compatibility.
- Safety: The manual emphasizes placing the unit on a level surface and avoiding excessive force. It also includes a critical warning regarding the roller lock mechanism: if it stops working, users should immediately cease using the tray and contact customer service.
Usage Features:
- Easy Positioning: The sliding mechanism allows for effortless repositioning of the AquaTru purifier on a countertop, making it easier to access, clean, or move out of the way when not in use.
- Secure Placement: The inset area ensures the AquaTru unit sits fully and securely within the tray, preventing it from sliding off the tray itself during movement.
- Locking Mechanism: The lever-controlled roller lock provides both mobility and stability. Users can unlock the tray to move it and then lock it in place to prevent accidental shifts.
- Simple Operation: The "Press In" to move and "Release" to lock operation is intuitive and straightforward, requiring minimal effort.
- Countertop Protection: By providing a dedicated base, the tray may also help protect countertops from potential scratches or water spills that could occur from directly moving the purifier.
Maintenance Features:
- Cleaning: The tray is designed for easy cleaning. To clean, the AquaTru unit should be removed, and the tray can then be wiped with a damp cloth.
- Not Dishwasher Safe: A crucial maintenance instruction is that the tray is not dishwasher safe. This prevents potential damage from high heat and harsh detergents.
- Do Not Submerge in Water: Users are explicitly warned not to submerge the tray in water, indicating that while it may be water-resistant for spills, it is not designed for immersion. This suggests that the internal roller lock mechanism or other components could be damaged by water intrusion.
- Warning for Malfunction: The manual includes a safety warning regarding the roller lock. If it stops working, users are instructed to immediately discontinue use, remove the AquaTru from the tray, and contact AquaTru customer service. This highlights the importance of the locking mechanism for safe operation and suggests that internal components are not user-serviceable.
- Household Use Only: The tray is intended for household use, implying that it is not designed for commercial or industrial environments that might require different cleaning or durability standards.
- Avoid Hot Surfaces: When placing the tray on a kitchen countertop, users are advised to always avoid placing it near hot surfaces like stoves and ovens, which could potentially damage the tray's materials or affect its functionality.
