Qualifications If the power cable is damaged it must be replaced by a qualified technician. To avoid hazards, all installation procedures must be carried out by a suitably qualified tradesperson. Venting Occasionally steam and / or boiling water may discharge through a vent outlet or the tap. Ensure the tap body is located so the tap outlet safely dispenses into the drip tray or sink bowl area, and the vent is plumbed to a safe location. Lifting Take care when lifting. The appliance may exceed safe lifting limits. If you feel this is beyond your personal capabilities, please seek assistance with the lift. Do not lift the appliance by the tap or any of its connections. Refer to the Technical specification for the weight of the product. Positioning Ensure the appliance is positioned in an accessible area. The appliance must be installed upright, with its base in a horizontal position. Frost protection If the appliance is located where ambient air temperature could fall below 5ºC when the appliance is not in use, do not turn it off electrically. This safeguard does not offer the same protection to the connecting pipework and fittings.

Step 6 ­ Commissioning

6.1
!

Warning: This appliance must be earthed
Do not turn ON electrical power until instructed. Water must be available from the tap outlet to prevent damage. Water dispensed during commissioning may be boiling.

Check earthing

< 1.0

Earthing continuity must be tested by a qualified technician using a resistance meter of minimum accuracy of 5% full scale deflection.

· Ensure electrical power is OFF.

· Verify meter ohms range, connect leads together, reading should be 0 ohms.

· Hold one test lead to the earth of the power lead.

· Hold the other test lead on a cover fixing screw, then the tap.

· Verify that in every instance the electrical resistance does not exceed 1 ohm.

Step 7 ­ Tap operation The Hydroboil is fitted with a two-way, cool-touch tap.
! Boiling water will be dispensed
7.1 Tap operation: Autoboil

Press lever to dispense boiling water.

Push to lock for continuous flow. If lever does not lock, rotate it 180° before dispensing.

7.2 Tap operation: Hydroboil Plus

Ensure the red lock button on the right hand side of the control panel is in a depressed position. If not, push the button and simultaneously rotate it 90°. The button should remain depressed.

Normal operation (for filling cups and small containers) Gently push the tap inwards. Boiling water will flow until the tap is released.
Continuous operation (for filling larger containers) Lift the tap until it locks in a horizontal position. Boiling water will flow until the tap is returned to its normal closed position. This allows a vessel to be filled without holding your hand where it may be affected by steam.

Maintenance
Filter replacement (Australian/NZ models)
The filter cartridge should be replaced every 6-12 months, or earlier if you notice a persistent reduction in water pressure from the appliance or an unpleasant taste or odour in the water.
! Warning! Not changing filtration cartridges when required, may cause the water to become biologically unsafe.
If the appliance is switched off for a long period of time (more
! than 2-3 days), run water through the outlet for at least 5 minutes before consumption. Use only a Zip Filter in this product to ensure effective filtration and operation. Replacement filter cartridges can be obtained through plumbing suppliers or directly from Zip. Filter replacement instructions are included with the filter cartridge spare part kits.
To replace the filter cartridge:
To remove filter cartridge: rotate the filter anti-clockwise.
Gently pull down.
Have an absorbent cloth ready to catch any water
released.

Replace with a new filter by gently pushing up, engaging the key and turning the filter clockwise
until the filter clicks or locks into place.
Perform filter flush by following the filter flush steps in Commissioning (page 14).
Dispose of the filter cartridge responsibly.
