Tips for use
General
After the Nordic single tap or Fusion tap or Flex tap has been installed and the
water is up to temperature, the entire content of the tank must be flushed
through once before use. The Quooker supplies instant boiling water and has
been fitted with a number of safety features detailed below. Nevertheless, users
should take care when operating the tap and should avoid exposing objects to
the Quooker which are not heat-resistant. If the entire content of boiling water
is used in one go, it takes between 10 and 20 minutes for the water to reach
boiling temperature again, depending on the tank type.
Tap protection (image 1)
All Quooker taps are fitted with a childproof double-push-and-turn handle.
A light ring lights up when the tap is dispensing water. The pull out hose on the
Flex tap is fitted with an additional safety feature called the ‘boiling-water stop’,
which ensures that no boiling water will be dispensed when the hose is pulled
out.
Descaling the aerator (image 2)
We recommend that you descale the aerator at the tip of the spout regularly,
depending on the hardness of water in your area. To descale the aerator,
unscrew the tap nozzle, remove the aerator and soak it in a vinegar-water
solution for a while. This prevents blockage and irregular spraying from the tap.
Light ring (image 3)
The Nordic single tap, Fusion and Flex have been fitted with a light ring which
illuminates when the water in the tank is heating up. When the Quooker is not
being used, the light will come on several times an hour for a short while.
As soon as boiling water is dispensed from the tap, the light will come on quickly
and stay on until all the water in the tank is up to temperature again. If the light
ring is flashing, the tank is not heating the water and will require a reset.
To reset the system, switch off the tank via the Q-shaped on/off switch on the
top, wait a couple of minutes and then switch it on again. If it continues to flash,
please contact the manufacturer.
Adjusting the mixer tap water temperature (only Quooker COMBI) (image 4)
The temperature of the mixer tap water can be adjusted between 40 and 60°C by
turning the grey knob on the mixing valve towards ‘K’ for cold or ‘W’ for warm.
