Safety Information - Dometic RO 400 User Instructions

The Confidence RO 400 is a very safe appliance, but even so it is important that everyone using it should
be thoroughly familiar with the way it works and its safety features. To prevent mishaps and problems you
should read the "Safety Information" on these pages, and carefully follow the instructions in the
"Installation" section. Take care of this manual and make sure that it accompanies the water purifier if it is
moved or sold.
• The water purifier may only be installed with the
accompanying tap. The water purifier must not be con-
nected so as to supply all the taps in the property with
water. There is a risk of corrosion in water pipes and
water-heaters. Neither may the water purifier be
installed in connection with valves, switches or tanks.
Any faults that arise in a water purifier that has been
incorrectly installed are not covered by the guarantee.
• Check that the water you intend to purify meets the
requirements listed under "Requirements of feed
water", in the section "Technical data".
• When the water purifier is brand-new, the purified water
must not be consumed until after the calibration and
flushing procedures have been completed.
• Calibration of the water purifier should only be carried
out:
– the first time that the water purifier is used
– if the appliance is moved to a different place (locality)
where the water quality is different
– after the membrane has been replaced
• When the membrane contains the special products for
storage or descaling, it will have to be cleaned by fol-
lowing the "Flushing procedure" before the water from
the water purifier may be used again.
• The water produced by the appliance may only be con-
sumed if Purification Level indicator II or III on the
control panel comes on. A green indicator light on the
tap will come on at the same time.
• If the feed water supply to the appliance is unfit for con-
sumption, have the purified water from the appliance
tested after installation. You should subsequently have
the purified water tested once a year, or if any change in
its taste or smell occurs, to ensure that the water purifier
is functioning well.
If the result is unsatisfactory, do not drink the water.
Contact your dealer.

SAFETY INFORMATION

• If any leakage arises, turn off the supply of water to the
appliance immediately and disconnect the appliance
from the electrical supply by removing the electrical
plug from the wall socket, or if necessary, removing the
relevant fuse
• If the water purifier is to be disconnected from water
and electricity for an extended period (1 week), it
should be stored as described in "Preparing the water
purifier for storage and protecting it from freezing".
This also provides protection against freezing.
• Do not attempt to modify or otherwise alter the water
purifier in any way. Doing so could result in personal
injury and/or damage to property which would not be
covered by any warranty.
• Once every month you should check that the connec-
tions are all watertight. Leakages outside the appliance
cannot be detected by the appliance's leakage protection
system.
• If the water purifier is malfunctioning, it should be iso-
lated from the electrical supply by removing the electri-
cal plug from its socket. If this is not possible, remove
the relevant fuse or switch off the circuit breaker at the
electrical distribution board (consumer unit).
• At the end of the appliance's useful life, disconnect the
electrical plug from the power supply, then cut the elec-
trical lead at the point where it enters the appliance.
Make quite sure that children will not be able to play
with the severed lead.
To find out how best to dispose of the appliance, con-
tact your dealer or the local authority.
