WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE YOU BEGIN
For your satisfaction and safety, read all instructions, cautions and warnings before installing or using this
steaming hot water tap.
This particular unit is not intended for commercial use.
Make sure that all electrical wiring and connections conform to local codes.
A standard grounded electrical outlet is required under the sink for the tap's electrical power.
The wall outlet powering your tap must have power supplied to it continuously.
This outlet must be fused and should not be controlled by the same wall switch that operates the disposer,
unless you have a SinkTop Switch ™ from InSinkErator
Tap must be installed such that the outlet opening is greater than 25mm above the overflow rim of the sink.
It is recommended that a dedicated control valve be installed on the cold water line supplying water to this system.
If you suspect elevated levels of chlorine in your water, or your water has a rusty appearance before the
installation of this unit, it is recommended to use our water filtration system.
This product contains stainless steel. The manufacturer cannot guarantee against rusty water because of the
number of factors that are involved beyond the manufacturer's control. However, the sudden appearance of rusty
water discharged from the hot water tap may indicate the need for service or replacement of this product.
The use of a water filter should NOT result in a drop in water pressure below 25 psi (172kPa). If it does, this will
prevent your unit from operating properly.
Moving parts inside the tank causing a rattling noise is normal.
