No partof the unit should be exposed to a naked flame. Maintenance of the refrigerationunit must be carried out by an accredited service provider or qualifiedrefrigeration mechanic.QualificationsIf any power cord or plug is damaged it must be repaired only by a qualifiedtechnician. To avoid hazards, all installation procedures must be carried out by asuitably qualified tradesperson. The power cord and general power outlet mustbe in a safe visible position for connection.VentingSometimes steam and / or boiling water may discharge through a vent outlet atthe mouth of the tap. If the tap is not installed using the Font pedestal, ensurethe tap body is located so the tap outlet safely drains into the sink bowl area.NOTE: On startup, the controls take the system through a calibration processwhich causes the unit to over-boil for a period of 90 secs. This is normaloperation, once this mode is completed the system reverts back to normaloperation.LiftingTake care when lifting the Zip HydroTap undersink unit. Some units may exceedsafe lifting limits. Do not lift without assistance. The weights of the units aregiven in the table under the heading “Installation Requirements”. Do not lift theunit by the doors.AirflowThe ambient temperatures this unit should operate within are 5ºC - 35ºC. Properair circulation must be provided. The system will operate satisfactorily only if therecommended air gaps are provided, these are 65mm min rear clearance and50mm side clearance. An air vent is provided with each unit for high usageapplications, this must be installed in the top half of the cupboard door as amatter of course. An accessory exhaust fan kit is available and should be used toensure adequate ventilation. Make sure that the ventilation grilles of theundersink unit are not obstructed. Included in the installation pack are adhesivebacked silicon buffers. If air vents are not installed in the cupboards housing theHydroTap, the buffers must be placed on the inside edge of the cupboard door tocreate a slight gap ensuring a minimum airflow. Failure to do this may causethe HydroTap to overheat and operate inefficiently.Altitude (not HT boiling only series)The Zip HydroTap is equipped with a self-calibrating program which caters foraltitude adjustment.Filter Control (for filtered models)The Zip HydroTap filter control is preset to 6000 Litres to provide trouble-freeflow and operation in most installations. Local water quality conditions mayrequire an alteration to this capacity. In areas where the water has a highconcentration of sediment, the preset litre capacity may be shortened to avoidpoor flow, taste or odour situations. In areas where the water quality is aboveaverage, lengthening the preset capacity may be desirable, but not essential. Ifany of these changes is needed, follow the instructions on page 11 or contactyour Zip Service Provider.Zip Hydrotap undersink assembly.The appliance must be placed in ahorizontal position, as shown above.The power point must be located withinreach of its cable.
