WARNING:

 For correct operation of this appliance it is essential to observe the manufacturer’s instructions. 

Precautions

The plumbing installation must be done in accordance with local Water Authority regulations and these Installation 
Instructions.

As the installer, it is your responsibility to supply (if necessary) and install all valves as required by local regulations and 
relevant standards.

Correct Use of JG Quick Connect Fittings

John Guest quick connect fittings and hoses are used in Zip products.  

Note insertion and removal details for JG fittings using plastic tubing as 
seen in the adjacent diagram.

NB: 

Be sure to cut the tube squarely with a sharp knife or tube cutter. 

Shake out and remove any swarf or debris.

• 

Operating temperatures 5º C -  35º C.

• 

Water pressure 70 kPa - 700 kPa  (0.07 MPa -0.7 MPa)

It is the installers responsibility to ensure the installation complies with, AS/NZS3500.4 and local water authority 
regulations. 

Installing the Filtration Unit

The filtration unit should be mounted in a convenient position in the cupboard, to allow for ready and easy access during 
filter changes.

Usually the side of the cupboard, near the door, is most suitable.

Using the two screws provided, screw the filter head bracket to the inside of the cupboard, allowing 270 mm minimum 
clearance between the underside of the filtration head and any obstructions like shelves, etc.

After removing all the filter packaging material, write the installation date on the filter cartridge. Fit the cartridge into the 
housing. The model you have may appear slightly different to that illustrated, however, operation and function is identical.

Align the tabs of the cartridge with the filter housing and insert it into the socket. Turn the cartridge a quarter turn to the 
right until it stops and locks into position.

Check that the direction of flow on the filter head is correct.
