Other FAQs:
How is the machine cleaned?
LeveLuk has an automatic cleaning system. The amount of minerals in the supply water, such as Ca and Mg can vary greatly, and mineral clusters inevitably stick to the electrode plates. They can be broken off, however, easily by reversing the electric current (switching the +,-polarity). Mineral clusters attached to the electrode plate decrease the electrolysis capacity of the appliance, resulting in a failure to produce primary Kangen Water®. The amount of minerals attached to the electrolysis cell varies according to the quantity of minerals in the tap water.
LeveLuk's automatic cleaning mechanism is activated for 20 seconds when continual electrolysis reaches 15 minutes. When using LeveLuk in areas where the water has a high mineral content, change the setting to "beauty water" (2nd from bottom) and turn on the tap slightly so the water is running gently. This will reverse the electric current and remove the crystals in the electrolysis cell after 2-3 minutes. Changing the setting to "beauty water" once a day for 30 seconds is another way to clean the electrolysis cell. The cleaning function is necessary to maximize the life span of the electrolysis cell.
How often does the machine go into a notice of cleaning?
All Leveluk SD series machines will clean itself out after a total of 15 minutes of usage, when you switch from strong acidic water to any of the other types of waters, or when your machine has been sitting idle for a 24 hour period or more. Whenever you see "Notice of Cleaning", turn the faucet on while the diverter is in the Ion position and allow the water to run until the cleaning notice goes away. This usually takes about 30 seconds. This procedure is necessary for the maintenance of the machine.
The K8 model units will clean themselves after 10 minutes of usage. This happens as soon as you stop the water. The K8 will proceed to clean as the machine drains. However, it will require you to run the water for a cleaning cycle after you make Strong Acidic Water, or the machine has been idle for 24 hours or more. Follow the above procedure to activate the cleaning cycle.
When should I send my machine in for a deep cleaning?
While it's important to clean your machine at home, it's also very important to schedule your deep cleaning. Enagic reccomends sending your machine in 1-2 times a year. This will help ensure your machine is running at peak performance and producing the best and most productive water. Deep Cleaning is only done at Enagic service centers.
