4.2 System flush
WARNING!
Ensure all sanitising residue is flushed out prior to use.
When the filter flush has been completed, flush the system of trapped air and sanitisation residue by dispensing
water from the tap until it flows without any further spluttering. Dispense at least 3 litres of water and check the water
is clear with no soapy looking bubbles from the residue of the factory sanitisation process.
4.3 Filter replacement
For safe operation, the filter cartridge should be replaced at least every 6-12 months, or
earlier if you notice a persistent reduction in water pressure from the tap or an unpleasant
taste or odour in the water.
For safe operation, thoroughly flush the water through after periods of non-use longer than
12 hours. Not changing the filter cartridges when required may cause the water to become
biologically unsafe.
•
Isolate the HydroTap from the power and water supply.
•
Locate the filter in the under-sink cupboard.
• Grasp the filter cartridge firmly and twist it horizontally a quarter turn clockwise until it
stops. (Water will drip from the filter head during the replacement process so have a
bucket and towel handy to catch and mop up any spills).
• Gently ease the cartridge downwards to detach it from the filter head, then pull it out and
discard responsibly. Take care not to tip it up once free as water may spill out.
• Write the date of replacement on the new filter cartridge label.
•
Remove the protective plastic cap, and lubricate the o-rings, (with water) .
The insertion method is the opposite to the removal method. Align the tabs of the
replacement cartridge with the filter head and insert it up into the filter head.
•
Turn the cartridge a quarter turn anti-clockwise until it locks into position.
• When the filter replacement has been completed flush the filter and purge the system of
air by dispensing water for 2 minutes (after any spluttering has stopped).
• Reset the filter counter from the tap, see section 5.
