Operating Procedures
Commissioning
Clip the tubing in the cupboard. After the appliance is installed and connected,
turn “ON” the water supply. Check all connections for leaks. Repair any leaks
found.
The filter, chiller and tubing will be full of air until purged. Turn the operating
lever on the appliance outlet tap for a minimum of five minutes until all of the
air has been purged from the system and the filter has been primed.
Every time the filter cartridge is replaced, repeat the procedure of a five minute
flush to activate the new cartridge properly.
Connect the unit to the electrical supply. DO NOT turn “ON” until after the unit
is purged.
Wipe clean and dry the area.

Operation
Chilled water is obtained by rotating the lever, to a horizontal position. The
water is chilled by a refrigeration unit fitted within the cabinet, under the sink.
With the tap, you can obtain chilled water within the rated capacity, for as long
as you leave the lever in the open (horizontal) position. When finished, return
the lever to the OFF (upright) position.
Maintenance
Filter Replacement
The Zip ChillTap Under Counter Chiller has a separate filtration system
connected to the incoming water supply line.
For safe operation, 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. Make an entry in your diary to check the water
quality of the ChillTap at least six months after installation and after every
subsequent filter change.
Use only a Zip ZT002 Filter to match that used with this ChillTap. Replacement
filter cartridges can be obtained through plumbing suppliers or directly from Zip.
Replacement instructions come with the filter cartridges.
Before attempting to disconnect or remove the filter cartridge from the housing,
isolate (turn off) the water supply prior to the filter system, and then relieve the
system pressure by operating the chilled water outlet tap until the water ceases
to flow.
