3 Setting up your STATIM
3.3 Connecting the Waste Bottle
The waste bottle is used to collect the wastewater after it has been converted to steam
and then drained from the cassette. To connect the waste bottle to the STATIM, follow
these steps (see figure 4):
1. Insert the exhaust tube into
the fitting on the back of the unit
and pull gently to confirm a tight fit.
2. Cut the tube to length and slide
the waste bottle fitting into place.
3. Place the free end of the tube into
the hole in the lid of the waste bottle
and hand-tighten the fitting.
Do not coil the exhaust tube.
4. Unscrew the lid and copper condenser
5
coil assembly from the waste bottle.
The lid and coil should come
out together.
5. Fill the waste bottle with water to
the MIN line and replace the lid and
copper condenser assembly.
Empty the waste bottle often to avoid
unpleasant odors and discoloration of
the contents. (A low-level disinfectant,
prepared according to the manufacturer's
instructions, may be added to the waste
bottle to remedy this situation). As a
minimum, empty the waste bottle each
time you refill the reservoir.
6. Place the waste bottle near the unit.
Store the bottle below the unit.
The tube can be routed through a hole,
(8 mm in diameter) in the counter-top
and secured with the provided
nylon clamps.
