Installation Requirements

Electrical Requirements
A standard 220/240v 50Hz earthed 13amp switched electrical socket is required. This must be placed within reach of the boiler unit 13amp plug. Cable length is 110cm. Extension cables should not be used.

Please ensure that the circuit has available capacity for the 1.5kw power requirement. We recommend contacting a qualified electrician prior to installation. Failure to check may result in circuit overload, tripping of the RCD, or other electrical hazards.

The boiling unit is supplied with a moulded plastic plug and lead, ensure that this is not cut or tampered with.

Under no circumstance should the boiler casing be removed contact the supplier.

Do not under any circumstance plug in the appliance unless the system is fully primed with water.

Water Supply Requirements
Incoming hot and cold-water feeds should be installed with local accessible isolation close to the boiler unit. Warning do not include additional isolation to boiling unit beyond the inlet connection, this risks unintentional pressurization.

It is recommended to fully flush the plumbing system prior to installation of the boiling water system, debris left might affect product function.

Ventilation Requirements
To avoid overheating or damaging electronic components, a zone of 10-15cm around the boiling unit is required around 3 sides of the unit. Humidity should not be above 60%, above this risks condensation which may affect electronic components.

Temperature Requirements
The product should only be used in an indoor environment. All preventative action should be taken to sure the product is not subject to ambient temperatures below 0OC or above 35OC. Should this be unavoidable the product should be electrically isolated, and the tank emptied.

Altitude Adjustment
Please note the product should never be allowed to reach boiling point, i.e. 100OC at sea level. Installations at higher elevations should take potential changes to the boiling point and adjust the maximum temperature to a minimum of 2OC below.

Prolonged Inactivity
Should the product be subject to prolonged periods of no use it is recommended to turn the boiler unit off, isolate the power supply and drain the tank.

4. Connect the Hot flexible hose (2) onto the hot matching water valve, and secure the connection with a spanner.

5. Connect hose (8) onto the other end of T Adaptor (11), and the other end of the hose fitted onto the filter inlet. Then secure the connection.

6. Before inserting the hose into filter inlet, remove the blue tab and replace once the hose is connected.

7. Remove blue tab. Connect hose (3) onto the filter outlet, then secure the connection. Reinsert the blue tab.

8. Before plugging in the boiling unit, ensure to fill the tank fully and run the water for an additional minute. Plug in the boiling unit and turn on the power.

How to Use your 4-1 Boiling Water Tap

1. For filtered hot water, press the left handle button. Keep the button pressed and rotate the handle anti-clockwise for instant hot water.
2. For filtered cold water, press the left handle button. Keep the button pressed and rotate the handle clockwise for filtered cold water.
3. For mixed water, pull the large lever backwards for mains hot water and forwards for mains cold water dispensing.

Regulation Requirements

It is important to ensure that the water supply to your tap is connected in accordance with the water regulation requirements, plumbing code and good plumbing practice. It is good practice that the supply of hot and cold water to the tap are equal (balanced) pressure in order to provide a consistent flow. Water supply should be from a common source, either mains or tank fed. If the water supply is not equal pressure then a Non Return Valve (check valve) should be fitted on the hot inlet.

Water Supply Pressures

The tap has been designed to function under the following conditions:

• Minimum supply pressure for cold water is 1.5 bar.
• Maximum supply pressure 5 bar (although we only recommend a maximum supply pressure of 3 bar).

IMPORTANT

Care & Maintenance of the Tap

Only clean the tap with a soft cloth, warm water and a mild detergent solution. Rinse the tap clean thoroughly afterwards with water. Do not use any abrasive or harsh chemical products, otherwise this will invalidate your guarantee.

These instructions are only intended as a guide, if there is any doubt then contact a certified plumber or service agent and avoid using the Instant Hot Water System until has been checked.

Troubleshooting

Below is a list of some of the possible malfunctions.

If the problem cannot be resolved as described, contact your dedicated KoGE retailer.

Prime the installation as described in the installation instructions.
Water and Steam is spitting from the instant hot water tap spout| Unit is boiling| Turn the instant hot water tap handle on and release the water. Adjust the water temperature on the display to a lower setting.
Water is not hot| The electronic instant hot water appliance is unplugged. There has been a power cut. The electronic unit has not been powered up| Make sure the instant hot water appliance is plugged in and connected to an earthed electricity outlet. Make sure that the circuit breaker and

fuse are working correctly. Reset the temperature then press the confirm key. Turn on the power and then set the required temperature and confirm the boiler heats up.

Water is not hot| Water temperature setting on display panel is set too high.| Set the temperature to the required level and confirm the boiler heats up.
Water drips from the instant hot water tap spout| The expansion chamber isn’t draining the system correctly due to very small draw off of water. The spout is blocked.| Draw off 0.5L of water to clear and prime the system. avoid drawing off less that 150ml of water at a time. Remove and clean the aerator on the tap.
Slow flow from the spout| The water filter may be clogged from impurities in the inlet mains water.| The water filter must be changed every 6 months. Failure to do this will void the guarantee.
Water does not flow immediately| The instant hot water tap is designed for non-pressurized operation so there will be slight delay before the near boiling water starts to flow.| This is not a fault. Note that after a large volume of water has been drawn off there may be a slightly longer delay in the water appearing from the instant hot water spout.
No water flows| Water valves have been turned off. Inlet pipes have become twisted or blocked.| Turn on all the water valves. Ensure the pipes are not twisted or kinked and restricting flow. Remove and clean the aerator.
“Set Temperature” indicator flashes “E4”.| Product Catastrophic Failure| Contact KoGE retailer if under warranty period.
