Alkaline ion
water
What do the braille characters on top
of the water quality selector buttons
represent?
Refer to the table below.
I’m a new user of alkaline ion water. What
steps do I need to take?
If you’re a new user, use the Alkaline Ionizer at the
“Alkaline 1” (Drinking water for new user) setting first.
Use small volume (1 to 2 cupfuls) every day for about
two weeks to get used to alkaline ion water. Then
change the setting to “Alkaline 2” (Drinking water for
Experienced user) setting or “Alkaline 3” (Drinking
water in daily life).
I’m on medication. Is it ok for me to drink
alkaline ion water?
Use the Purified Water setting for the water to take
your medicine with.
You can use alkaline ion water for drinking, cooking
and purposes other than taking medicine.
What should I do if I get diarrhea or a
rash after I start drinking alkaline ion
water?
Stop drinking alkaline ion water, and consult a doctor.
While consulting the doctor, say that:
Ď The alkaline ion water you’ve been drinking has
more calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium and
other minerals than tap water.
Ď The water you’ve been drinking has an alkalinity
with a pH level of 8 to 9 (at the New Users setting).
I have kidney trouble. Is it ok for me to
drink alkaline ion water?
Consult a doctor before drinking alkaline ion water.
While consulting the doctor, say that:
Ď
The alkaline ion water you are thinking of drinking
has more calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium
and other minerals than tap water.
Ď
The water you are thinking of drinking has an
alkalinity with a pH level of 9.5 or so.
How much calcium is contained in
alkaline ion water?
Due to electrolysis, there are 20 to 30% more calcium
ions in alkaline ion water than in the source water.
How long does the alkaline ion water
“keep”?
Use it within 24 hours at room temperature.
When alkaline ion water is produced, the chlorine
(sterilizer) in the tap water is removed off, making it
easier for bacteria to proliferate.
Even when storing alkaline ion water in the
refrigerator, keep it in a clean sealed container, and
use it within 2 days.
Ʃ
Also use weak acidic water within 2 days.
Can I use alkaline ion water to make
ice?
Yes, you can.
Use the ice made from alkaline ion water in the same
you would with the ice made from tap water.
If you store alkaline ion water in the tank of a
refrigerator equipped with an automatic ice-making
function, change the water within 2 days.
What else can I do with alkaline ion water
besides drinking it?
You can use it for cooking, making rice, making tea
or coffee just as you would with regular water. (See
page 30.)
