OVERFLOW:
The drip-tray has a limited capacity and is designed
to handle small spillages and drips only. Wherever
possible, we strongly recommend that it is connected
to a permanent waste outlet using the fitting kit
provided.
If preferred, and as an alternative, the overflow-outlet
can be connected from the back of the machine
using an optional rear-overflow kit (Pt. No: ROFK1)
available from Instanta Spares Department
(01704 501114).
IMPORTANT: Whichever overflow connection is
chosen, the diameter of the pipe used must be no less
than 15mm.
Failure to connect the overflow-outlet to a permanent
waste or drain, could lead to property damage from
flooding.
If in all circumstances, it is absolutely not possible to
direct the boiler overflow-outlet to a permanent waste
or drain, then the mains water supply to the boiler
should be isolated and the unit switched off whenever
it is left unattended for long periods (e.g. overnight).
Whilst every reasonable precaution is taken to
prevent an overflow, Instanta cannot be held
responsible for any damage caused as a result of
incorrect installation or blockage of the overflow
or failure to direct the overflow to a safe outlet.
Operation
First Use (once water and electrical connections have
been made);
• Switch boiler on.
AMBER LIGHT will illuminate to indicate that the
boiler is filling with water.
• Once primed with water, the RED LIGHT will
illuminate to show that it is heating.
• When the boiler reaches the correct temperature
the GREEN LIGHT will show that the boiler is
ready.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In normal daily use, the boiler may
be used as soon as the GREEN LIGHT shows, but on
first install, wait 15 minutes before starting to use.
Regular Daily Use
• Switch boiler on
• Wait for the GREEN LIGHT. The water will then
be at the correct temperature.
• Dispense water via the lever tap.
(CAUTION: Take care as boiler dispenses near-
boiling water).
Cleaning
Clean the external surfaces of the boiler regularly to
maintain good hygiene
Empty the front drip-tray regularly
Wipe external surfaces of the boiler with a damp
cloth. Do not use abrasive materials on the outer
surfaces.
Wipe the draw-off tap each day to keep clean and
also prevent lime-scale deposits from building up
around the tap-outlet.
Maintenance & Service
Information
DESCALING:
The boiler should be periodically checked for scale
build-up…see below:
In hard water areas, the boiler should be descaled
on a regular basis to maintain efficient operation,
minimise energy consumption, and also retain
the water quality. The frequency depends on the
hardness of the local mains water supply and whether
or not a filter cartridge/water softener has been
installed.
TO DE-SCALE:
• Safety Caution: Disconnect machine from power
supply
• Empty the machine through the draw-off tap and
allow to cool
• Lift off the outer-lid.
• Remove tank-lid (four fixing screws).
• Lift out the evaporation plates (inside of tank –
Remember order of removal).
• Remove as much scale as possible by hand.
Any scale which is difficult to remove can be
dissolved by using a de-scaling solution.
