The LeakAlertor 6000 is a smart device designed to electronically monitor toilets for water-wasting problems. It provides both visual and audible alerts when a problem is detected, ensuring users are notified before leaving the bathroom.

Function Description:

The primary function of the LeakAlertor 6000 is to detect and alert users to water-wasting issues in their toilet. It operates specifically during the flush cycle. When the toilet is functioning properly, only the GREEN LIGHT will flash during a flush. However, if a problem is detected, the device will continuously beep and flash the RED LIGHT, indicating a water-wasting issue. This immediate alert system helps prevent prolonged water wastage and potential damage.

The device is designed to be user-friendly, providing clear instructions for addressing detected problems. It distinguishes between two main types of water-wasting problems: an overflowing toilet and a continuously running toilet. For an overflowing toilet, the user is instructed to first remove any blockage. For a continuously running toilet, the issue is typically related to the flapper not closing properly.

Usage Features:

Upon detection of a problem (continuous beeping and flashing RED LIGHT), users are advised to take immediate action:

1. Shut off the water: Turn the water supply knob clockwise as far as possible to stop the water flow to the toilet.
2. Silence the alert: Press the reset button on the device to temporarily silence the LeakAlertor's alarm.
3. Address the specific problem:
   • Overflowing toilet: If the toilet was overflowing, the first step is to remove any blockage causing the overflow. After the blockage is cleared, the water can be turned back on by turning the knob fully counter-clockwise.
   • Running toilet: If the toilet was only running (not overflowing), the user should remove the tank lid and ensure the flapper is properly closed, laying flat as shown in the provided image. Once the flapper is correctly seated, the water can be turned back on.

The device also has a specific alert for minor issues. If the LeakAlertor only beeps a few times whenever the toilet is flushed, it indicates a less severe problem that may not require immediate user intervention but suggests a need for professional attention. In such cases, users are advised to call the contact number provided during normal business hours at their earliest convenience.

Important Technical Specifications/Notes:

• The LeakAlertor 6000 is installed within the toilet tank.
• It features three indicator lights: OK, LOW BATTERY, and LEAK.
• A RESET BUTTON is provided for silencing alerts.
• The device is manufactured by nth Solutions, LLC, and is made in the USA.
• It is covered by US Patents 8,310,369, 8,362,907, and 8,704,671, with additional patents pending.
• Warning: Removing the unit from the toilet will trigger a continuous alert that will only cease once the unit is placed back in the tank. This feature is likely designed to prevent tampering or accidental removal without addressing the underlying issue.
• Privacy Note: The LeakAlertor does not contain a camera or any type of recording device, ensuring user privacy.

Maintenance Features:

While the manual does not explicitly detail routine maintenance, the presence of a "LOW BATTERY" indicator suggests that battery replacement will be a necessary maintenance task. The device's ability to alert users to water-wasting problems serves as a proactive maintenance tool, helping to identify and resolve issues before they escalate into more significant problems or cause substantial water loss. For repairs and service, users are directed to contact the provided service number, indicating that professional assistance is available for more complex issues beyond simple user intervention. The recommendation to store the guide in a medicine cabinet for reference implies that users may need to consult it periodically for troubleshooting or understanding alerts.
