ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The boiler is supplied with a tted plug and lead and should be plugged
into a 240v 13A electrical socket, capable of carrying a load of 3kW.
The installation of a residual current device (RCD) having a rated
residual operating current not exceeding 30 mA is advisable.
USER INSTRUCTIONS
During normal operation some external parts will become
very hot, particularly the tap body. Care must be taken to
avoid injury, a burn or scald.
Commissioning
Turn on the water supply and then switch on the electrical supply.
The Wait/Ready light will ash yellow and the unit will pulse with water
(8L/Min). When water reaches the normal operating level sensor, the
solenoid will be disabled and the element will be energised. When a
band of water around the draw off tap has reached the normal operating
temperature, the Wait/ Ready light will show solid yellow colour (indicating
water available). The element will remain energised until the full capacity
of the boiler has reached normal operating temperature, indicated by the
wait/ready light turning to solid orange colour
Subsequent Use
After the boiler has nished the commissioning cycle and water is
drawn from the tap, water will be replaced in pulses automatically by
VENT & OVERFLOW
The vent / over ow pipe must be extended and laid with a
continuous
fall
, discharging to a safe and visible point. The pipe should not be
directly connected to a closed waste, as taste problems may occur and
should never be allowed to become blocked or restricted.15mm copper
or ‘Speed t’ pipe should be used.
Note
Although the machine will operate without this pipe being extended,
failure to do so will mean the surroundings are susceptible to damage
from any discharge
the solenoid. The element may be also be energized at the same time.
If water is drawn from the machine but boiling water is still available,the
Wait/Ready light will be illuminated solid yellow. if full draw off capacity
is removed, the boiler will chill, indicated by the Wait/Ready light ashing
yellow.
Note:
When the green service indicator light on the front of the boiler is showing
solid colour, the header tank sensor has been starved of water for in
excess of 30 seconds and the bottom thermistor has been disabled. To
reinstate normal operation the water supply needs to be re-applied.
If the service indicator light ashes, this indicates that the water level has
reached the high level sensor and the likelihood is that the normal level
sensor requires de-scaling, or the machine has over- lled due to debris
trapped in the solenoid valve.The debris can be removed by drawing
plenty of water from the dispense tap, causing the solenoid valve to
operate and ush out the obstruction. The machine will reset itself once
the problem has cleared. If this does not rectify the problem, turn off
the water supply and remove the exible hose to check for debris in the
valve’s lter. When the service light is ashing, the element is disabled and
the boiler may cool. For further assistance, contact our service department

SCALE
The production of scale is a natural phenomenon and commonly occurs
in hot water systems. The nature of the scale produced and its rate of
formation varies widely throughout the country.
To ensure continuous, reliable operation, the boiler should be regularly de-
scaled by a suitably quali ed engineer. Suitable chemical de-scalants must
only be used if the manufacturers recommendations are strictly adhered
to. This is to prevent health and safety issues, taste problems and potential
damage to the appliance. Misuse of such chemicals is not covered by the
product warranty.
The Kudos range of boilers bene t from an integral scale inhibitor.
This
is not
a scale eliminator and its effects will differ according to the water
quality in your area. To ensure trouble free operation,
periodically
check for scale inside the boiling chamber. The production of scale is a
natural phenomenon and some de-scaling may be required within the
rst 12 months. This is not covered under the products warranty as it is
not a fault.
