objectionable taste or odour to the water.
When the inlet and outlet ports have been closed
and the filter’s internal pressure has been relieved,
water (about 60ml) will discharge from vent line.
If the new filter cartridge cannot be inserted,
insert the old one and turn until it stops, remove it
and then retry the new cartridge.
It is recommended that carbon filters be replaced
every 6 months.

Property Damage: To avoid water damage, replace any loose or split tubing. Periodically
inspect the unit for any signs of leakage and immediately remove from service any unit
suspected of leaking.
Personal Injury: This tank is a non-pressurised tank. DO NOT modify this system. DO
NOT close vent tube or connect other types of taps or valves to the tank. Use only the
InSinkErator tap supplied. Use only parts provided. Contact an authorised InSinkErator
Service agent for repairs or replacement components.
This appliance must be earthed (grounded). This steaming hot water tap is equipped with a cord that has a
grounding conductor and earth ground pin. The plug must be connected to an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and earthed (grounded) in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not modify the plug
provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Check with a qualified electrician or tradesman if you are in doubt as to whether the steaming hot water tap is
properly earthed (grounded).
Fire Hazard: To minimise possibility of fire, DO NOT store flammable items such as rags,
paper or aerosol cans near the tank. DO NOT store or use petrol or other flammable
vapours and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
A steaming hot water tap, like any water heater, has a limited life and will eventually fail. To avoid
possible property damage and personal injury, this steaming hot water tap should be regularly
examined for leakage and/or corrosion and replaced when necessary. A drain pan, plumbed to
an appropriate drain or outfitted with a leak detector, should be used in those applications where
any leakage could cause property damage. To check for corrosion, examine the appearance of
the dispensed water in a clear glass once every three (3) months. If there is any discoloration or
rusty appearance, unplug and drain unit as described in the Seasonal Storage/Drainage section
on page 6 of this manual. If the water discoloration remains after draining and refilling unit,
discontinue use and contact an authorized InSinkErator service agent.
Electric Shock Hazard: Using an ungrounded (no earth ground) or improperly
connected appliance can result in serious injury or death from electrical shock.
