Cleaning
Do not use strong, corrosive, spray or abrasive cleaners. Clean with a soft cloth
or brush and mild soap and water.
Do not spray water over the tap as it may damage the low-voltage electronics.
Undersink units must never be located near, or cleaned with water jets.
The Zip HydroTap notifies when filter replacement is due. The default setting is
6000 Ltrs, but this can be set in increments of 1000Ltr from 1000Ltr to
10000Ltrs. When a filter change is due, the Change Filter light will flash white
once a minute and remain so until reset. A filter status light is located between
the Red and Blue Lights on the tap head assembly.
Depending on local water quality conditions and usage, the filter may require
changing anywhere from 1000 Ltrs to 10000 Ltrs. You may also need to
replace the filter if you notice unpleasant odours or tastes.
Some water may drip from the filter head (socket) during replacement. Keep a
bucket and towel handy to catch drips and mop up any spills.
To change the Filter:
1. Scroll through the screen menu to “Filter Flush Off” this isolates the water
supply.

close will do.
