SAFETY INFORMATION
Carefully read through the user instructions, which contain directions and warnings, before installing and
starting to use the water purifier. It will then work in a proper manner and provide the greatest benefit.
Everybody using the water purifier should be familiar with how to operate it and its safety features.
Installation
• Check that the water you want to clean satisfies
the requirements in “Technical facts”.
• The water purifier should be connected to an
earthed electrical supply. As some operations
require the power supply to be temporarily
interrupted, it is best to connect using a plug that is
also easily accessible after installation. Permanent
wiring to the electrical supply may only be carried
out by a qualified electrician and should be per-
formed with a safety switch. Incorrect installation
can result in personal injury and/or damage to
property which are not covered by any warranty.
• Plumbing work should be performed by a qualified
plumber. If you do the installation yourself, you
must acquaint yourself with the applicable
standards and adhere to them.
• It is important for the purifier to be installed upright
on a horizontal surface, and that hoses and cables
are neither tensioned nor get jammed when
moving the purifier, e.g. during installation and
cleaning.
• If the feed water is classed as unfit, have the
purified water checked after installation. After this,
test the purified water once a year or if there is any
change in the taste or odour. Do not drink/use the
water if the results are unsatisfactory. Contact your
dealer.
• When the water purifier is new, the purified water
may not be used until flushing and calibration have
been completed.
• Calibration of the water purifier may only be carried
out:
- the first time the water purifier is taken into use.
- if the water quality changes (e.g. when moving).
- after replacing the membrane.
• The reverse osmosis technique reduces most
substances extremely effectively. For this reason,
the content of those substances that normally
protect pipes, tanks, valves, etc., are very low in
the purified water from the water purifier. Consider
the risk of corrosion and elution when choose
materials in peripheral equipment for the water
purifier.
Child safety
• Do not let children play with the water purifier.
• Never leave packaging material lying around so
that children can play with it.
Use
• The water purifier is intended to produce water for
applications that require purified water.
• Purified water should only be used when the control
panel’s lights II or III (purification levels) are lit. It can
take up to 60 seconds before the water purifier
indicates good water quality.
• The water purifier must be connected to water and
electricity in order for the automatic flushing system
to work. Automatic flushing takes place
approximately every 12 hours.
• Every time after drawing water, or every 15 minutes
in each operating cycle and when connecting the
plug, automatic flushing takes place.
• The upper side of the water purifier may not be used
to stand items on.
• Do not use purified water in aluminium vessels.
There is a risk of corrosion of the vessel and a
higher concentration of aluminium in the purified
water.
• Do not change or modify the water purifier in any
way. This can result in personal injury and/or
damage to property which is not covered by any
warranty.
• If the water purifier is to be disconnected from water
and electricity for an extended period (several days),
it should be stored as described in “Storage”. This
also provides protection against freezing.
• The water purifier may not be used without a filter
(except during cleaning and storage). It could be
seriously damaged.
• If the water purifier contains preserving agents or
detergents, it must be flushed in accordance with
“Flushing” before the purified water may be used.
• Once a month, check that the connections are
watertight. Leaks outside the appliance cannot be
detected by the internal safety system. If leakage
occurs, immediately switch off the water supply and
break the current to the appliance by pulling the plug
out of the wall socket or unscrewing the fuse in the
electrical distribution board.
• If the mains lead has been damaged in some way,
it must be replaced by a qualified person to avoid
damage or injury.
6

INFORMATION
Waste management
Old and damaged water purifiers
• At the end of the water purifier’s useful life,
disconnect the plug from the electrical supply
and cut the lead at the point where it enters the
appliance. Make sure that children do not play
with the severed lead. Contact your dealer for
information about where the water purifier can
be left.
• Break the current to a damaged water purifier by
pulling out the plug. Otherwise remove the water
purifier’s fuse (the plug) from the electrical
distribution board.
Symbol identification
• 80% of the plastic and rubber components in the
appliance and its packaging are identified with
symbols to assist the process of recycling and
disposal of the water purifier.
• This labelling is carried out in accordance with
international standards.
• The cardboard parts are made from recyclable
paper and can be deposited at collection points
for recycling.

Basic facts about reverse osmosis
Water
“Purified water” is pleasant tasting, good water without harmful, unhealthy or undesirable quantities of
organic and inorganic substances. Water purification means the separation of these particles and
substances. Traditional cleaning is characterised by certain substances being separated from the
water. Reverse osmosis is a superior filtration whereby extremely small molecules and particles can
also be separated. The technique involves the unpurified water being separated into two streams, the
purified water and a concentrate containing all the substances cleaned from the water.
Osmosis – Reverse osmosis
In the natural world, for example in our bodies, water is transported by means of osmosis. The cell
walls are a natural osmotic membrane, which separates impurities from pure water. With the reverse
osmosis water purification technique, water is forced under high pressure through a semi-permeable,
synthetic membrane. The result is pure water, the osmosis water. The membrane is only permeable to
water. Other substances with molecules just a little larger than the water molecule cannot pass through
the membrane, but are separated off. One major advantage of reverse osmosis is that no chemicals
are used during treatment.
7

USING THE WATER PURIFIER
When the water purifier has been installed, flushed and calibrated according to the instructions, it is ready to
be used. The water purifier has an electronic control system that makes it easy to use. Remember the
following:
• Change the filter when filter replacement is indicated on the control panel (2–3 times/year).
• Clean the water purifier when the flow is reduced and/or at least every 6 months.
Production of purified water
The water purifier starts production of purified
water when a tap, valve or pressure tank releases
the pressure in the purified water hose (i.e. when
the tap or valve is opened or when the pressure in
the tank falls) that is connected to the water
purifier.
Only use the water from the water
purifier when purification level II or III is
indicated.
If the water purifier has not been used for a
while, it can take up to 60 seconds before
good water quality is achieved.
Automatic flushing
• Every time after drawing water, or every
15 minutes in each operating cycle, automatic
flushing takes place. The length of the flushing
process varies between 5-90 seconds,
depending on how long the previous drawing
of water lasted.
• When the water purifier is connected to water
and electricity, flushing is automatically
performed every 12 hours. Flushing takes
place regardless of when purified water was
last produced.
REGULAR CARE OF THE WATER PURIFIER
Listed below are things you need to remember in the regular care of your water purifier. The points are listed
according how often they need to be performed:
• Every day, check that the indicator lights are
not indicating that something is calling for
remedial action.
• Keep the water purifier clean. Externally, the
appliance may only be cleaned with a damp
cloth. Do not use a wet cloth and do not pour
water over the appliance. Do not use
detergents.
• Once a month, check that all the connections
are in place and are watertight. Wipe off any
condensation that has collected on the base
plate.
• Make sure that you always replace filters in
time. The lifetime of the pre-filters depends on
your feed water.
After replacing a filter, stand the filter so that
most of the water runs out over a few minutes.
The filters can be discarded with normal
household rubbish, as they do not contain any
environmentally hazardous substances.
• Depending primarily on the hardness of the
feed water and its content of microorganisms,
the water purifier should be cleaned when the
flow is reduced or at least every 6 months and
disinfected if the water smells or tastes bad.
• When the capacity of the purifier is reduced
even after filter replacement and cleaning,
contact your dealer for membrane replacement.
• If the feed water has been classed as unfit, the
water from the water purifier should be tested
once a year by an approved laboratory.
• If the water purifier will not be used for a period
of more than four months, or if it is to be
disconnected from the water and electricity for
an extended period (several days), it should be
put into storage.

MAINTENANCE
Replacing the filters
It is important to pay attention to filter replacement, as the filters’ primary job is to protect the membrane.
Check that the containers are not leaking after filter replacement, and perform follow-up checks.
Replacing filter I
When the light for filter I is lit, it is time to replace
filter I. First eliminate other possible fault cases in
accordance with the “Trouble-shooting table” in the
section “If your water purifier stops working”. See
fig. 1-10 on page 101.
1. Ensure that the appliance has stopped and
then pull out the plug. Open the front cover
situated in front of the two pre-filters using
the manoeuvre as illustrated.
2. Pull the filter containers out towards you as
far as possible.
3. Use the filter spanner to unscrew the
container to the left marked I. Remember
that the container is full of water and that it
can overflow!
4. Wipe up any water on the base plate.
5. Remove the old filter.
6. Clean the filter container with a brush and
water.
7. Insert the new filter with the label I pointing
up. Ensure that the sealing ring is in the
filter container’s groove.
8. Screw the container into place using the
filter spanner. Tighten the filter container
so that the dot is somewhere between the
two outermost white lines.
9. Push the filter containers into the water
purifier.
10. Close the front cover and connect the plug.
The water purifier flushes automatically.
The replacement of filter I is now complete and
the water purifier is ready to be used as normal.
Replacing filter II
When the light for filter II is lit, it is time to replace
filter II. See fig. 1-11 on page 101.
1-10. Follow the 10 points (1-10) in the
instruction for replacing filter I. Now
replacing filter II instead, which is
situated in the container to the right.
11. Purified water production should have
stopped and the appliance should be
connected to the wall socket. To reset
the appliance’s integral counting
mechanism for filter replacement, hold
the button (calibration) depressed for
approximately 5 seconds until the light
for filter II has gone out.
The replacement of filter II is now complete
and the water purifier is ready to be used as

9

MAINTENANCE
Cleaning/Descaling
When the flow is reduced (due to clogging), the water purifier should be cleaned to extend its lifetime. When
the flow cannot be restored despite cleaning and filter replacement, contact your dealer for possible
membrane replacement. Cleaning/Descaling the water purifier is performed:
• when the flow from the water purifier has reduced
• at least every 6 months
Detergents can be ordered from your dealer (see
“Consumables”).
The detergent must be kept out of the reach of
children! Wash your hands after cleaning.
Water containing detergent will be produced.
This water must not be drunk or routed into
peripheral equipment or another product.
There are 2 methods for cleaning/descaling the water
purifier. Method A takes 10 hours and method B takes
30 minutes.
Method A
During the cleaning procedure, which takes
approximately 10 hours in total, you cannot use the
water purifier.
1. If the purified water tap is not installed, a valve
should be installed on the purified water hose
so that the water purifier can be controlled via
this. Also ensure that the purified water from
the water purifier can be flushed to the reject
water outlet by disconnecting the purified
water hose from another product or peripheral
equipment and leading it to the reject water
outlet via the gap.
2. Pull out the plug and connect it again so that
the water purifier flushes.
3. Ensure that purified water production has
stopped. Keep the water purifier connected to
the mains.
4. Unscrew filter container II in accordance with
“Replacing the filters” and place the filter to
one side.
5. Add approximately 2.5 dl detergent
(equivalent to 200 grams) in the filter
container. Fill with lukewarm water (20 – 40
°C) almost up to the edge. Stir until the
powder has dissolved, see fig. A.
6. Screw the filled container into place using the
filter spanner.
7. Open the purified water tap/valve and allow
the water purifier to flush water to the reject
water outlet for 45 seconds.

Trouble-shooting table
To protect the user and the water purifier from incorrect use, there are several different built-in alarms, which
cause the purifier to give an indication and stop. The table below gives probable causes of warnings given by
the water purifier.
The lights can appear in the following three ways:
extinguished lit flashing
INDICATION FAULT CAUSE REMEDIAL ACTION
Time to replace filter or clean the
grid.
• There is time before the water purifier
experiences an emergency stop. Prepare to
replace filter I and to clean the grid.
The feed water’s pressure is too
low, i.e. less than 1.5 bar
(150 kPa).
• Check the feed pressure. If necessary, increase
the pressure to 1.5–10 bar (150–1000 kPa)
Alarm for blocked filter I or II. • Check that there is nothing in the filter containers
that is obstructing the water flow.
• If necessary, replace filter I or II.
Alarm for dirt in the grid. • Check the grid according to “Cleaning the grid”.
Alarm for water
leak/condensation on the base
plate under the pre-filters.
• Check that all the connections are watertight.
• If there is water on the base plate, lean the
appliance forward and wipe it up.
The feed water’s pressure is too
low, i.e. less than 1.5 bar
(150 kPa).
• A pressure increase pump for the feed water can
alleviate this.
• Check the parts that can affect the feed water’s
pressure (water line, coarse filter, extra pre-filter).
Warning about used filter.
• Change filter II in accordance with “Replacing the
filters”.
Alarm for poorer water quality.
• If the water purifier is new and not yet calibrated,
rectify according to the section “Calibration”.
• Pull out and reconnect the plug so that the water
purifier flushes. Repeat this procedure two or
more times.
14

IF THE WATER PURIFIER IS NOT WORKING
INDICATION FAULT CAUSE REMEDIAL ACTION
Alarm indicating that calibration
has been commenced, but not
carried out correctly (probably
due to the tap having been
closed before 10 minutes had
elapsed).
• Restart the water purifier by pulling out and
reconnecting the plug so that flushing is
performed. Recalibrate the water purifier
according to the section “Calibration”.
Alarm for fault in the water quality
meter.
• Restart the water purifier by pulling out and
reconnecting the plug so that flushing is
performed. Wait for 2 hours then use the water
purifier as normal.
Low water flow The membrane may have
become blocked.
• Clean the water purifier in accordance with
“Cleaning/Descaling”.
The appliance
false starts (short
starts)
The water pressure between the
water purifier and e.g. tap, valve
or tank has dropped below the
water purifier’s starting pressure
level.
• Check the connections.
• Check that the ends of the water purified water
hose are flat, circular and with no burrs.
• Check that taps and valves are watertight in their
closed position.
Unpleasant odour When the water purifier is
stationary (without power supply)
and there is microbiological
growth in the water,
the water can smell “bad”.
• Try flushing the water purifier according to the
section “Flushing”.
• Clean the water purifier in accordance with
“Disinfection”.
If the water purifier has experienced an emergency stop, it must be restarted by pulling out the plug, waiting
for at least one minute and then reconnecting the plug again. If problems remain with the water purifier after
having read and tried to implement remedial measures in accordance with the trouble-shooting table, contact
your dealer.

INSTALLATION
Unpacking
• If the appliance has been damaged during
transportation, you should immediately notify the
company responsible for delivering it.
• Carefully lift out the water purifier by taking hold of
the rear handle and the front edge. The water
purifier can be damaged if it is lifted in any other
way.
• Check the purifier for any signs of damage and
check that no accessories are missing. Any
damage, faults or missing parts should be notified
to the supplier immediately.
• Do not leave packaging material lying around so
that children can play with it.
Positioning the water purifier
Remember the following when installing the water
purifier:
• The purifier is installed upright, without support, on
a horizontal surface that can take the load.
• The installation space should be close to cold
water supply, drainage and an earthed electrical
supply.
• It should be easy to inspect the control panel.
• It should be possible to open the front cover so
that the filter containers can be accessed.
• The water purifier should be installed with a 2 cm
gap to any adjacent fittings or walls to ensure good
ventilation around the appliance.
• Connections can be routed in any direction from the
connection point. Make sure no connections are
crushed or damaged. Hoses and cables must not be
tensioned. The dimensions of the area required for
the water purifier are specified in fig. A.
Affixing the information decal
The accessory box contains an adhesive sheet
with information decals in various languages.
Select the required language and affix the decal at
the indicated place, see fig. B.
Water connection
Feed connection: The water purifier is connected to
cold water (2 - 40 °C) via the feed water hose, see fig.
C(3). The connection should be supplied with an easily
accessible shut-off valve, see fig. D. If the connection
is with new pipes or pipes that have not been in use for
an extended period, the water should be allowed to run
for a while before the hose is connected. Any sand and
rust are then flushed out.
1. Check that the black seals are in place in the
feed water hose’s two connections.
2. Screw the feed water hose's straight end
onto the shut-off valve as shown in fig. D. If
the 3/4” hose connection does not fit, it can
be changed to a 1/2” connection using the
adapter supplied. Put the black washer in the
adapter and screw the adapter onto the shut-
off valve for feed water. Screw the feed water
hose onto the adapter.

INSTALLATION
Reject water outlet connection: The reject water
is routed via the reject water hose, see fig. C(2),
to the reject water outlet. The hose may be
extended up to 4 m, and the minimum internal
diameter is 13 mm.
The connection is made to the water trap
via the dishwasher drain. If there is only a
reject water outlet spigot and this is already
connected, the intermediate section should
be changed to one with two spigots. The
reject water outlet spigot is placed before
the water trap. Affix the hose as shown in
fig. E, securely with the aid of one hose clip
and the bracket for the reject water hose.
The reject water hose should be placed
in a loop at least 50 mm and at most 500
mm above the top of the water purifier
and existing water trap using the
enclosed bracket.
Electrical connection
The water purifier should be connected to an
earthed electrical supply (230V, 50Hz and 10A).
We recommend connection using a plug, as some
operations require the power supply to be
temporarily interrupted. The plug should also be
easily accessible after installation.
Connecting the water purifier
Before the water purifier is placed in its intended
position, remove the three protective sleeves from
the water purifier’s connections and the transport
protection under the pre-filter containers.
Feed water
1. Screw the feed water hose’s bent end
onto the water purifier’s connection. See
fig. F.
2. Open the shut-off valve on the feed and
check that there is no leakage at the
feed water hose.
Purified water
Connect the purified water hose from the
peripheral equipment to the water purifier.
See fig. F. Push the hose into the bottom
position, up to the mark (approx. 17 mm).
Use the angle bracket for the purified
water hose if the space behind the
appliance is limited.
Wastewater
The bent end of the reject water hose is
secured to the water purifier’s reject water
connection using a hose clip. See fig. F.

INSTALLATION
Electrical connection
1. Connect the plug to the wall socket, see
fig. G.
2. The water purifier starts and flushes.
The water purifier conducts this flushing
operation every time the plug is
connected.
The water may not be used until the
flushing procedure as described in
the section “Flushing” has been
completed.
3. Start purified water production and
check that the connections are
watertight following installation. If any of
the connections leak, pull out the plug
and further tighten the hose clip or nut.
Connect the plug.
4. Post-tighten the reject water and feed
water hoses after one week’s use.
A few drops of leakage at either end
of the purified water hose is sufficient
for the water purifier to start
(involuntarily). Leakage outside the
water purifier cannot be discovered
by its safety system. Unless
otherwise indicated, the shut-off
valve must always be open for the
water purifier’s safety system to
work.
G
Flushing
Flushing is performed when the water purifier:
• Is new and has never been used before.
• Is reinstalled after having been in storage.
• Has been cleaned, in order to rinse out
the detergent.
• Has been supplied with a new membrane.
Purified water may not be drunk/used
before or while flushing is in progress.
First check that:
• Purified water production has stopped.
• The purified water hose is disconnected
from any peripheral equipment and routed
to the reject water outlet.
• The shut-off valve on the feed water pipe
is open.
• There are no leaks at the feed water
connection.
• The reject water and purified water
connections are watertight.
• The pre-filters are properly tightened.
1. Pull the plug out of the wall socket.
2. Connect the plug to the wall socket again.
The water purifier flushes automatically.
3. Restart the water purifier so that it flushes
automatically by pulling out and
reconnecting the plug again.
4. Restart the water purifier one more time.
5. New installation or membrane
replacement
Perform calibration according to the
section “Calibration”.
5. Just flushing
Allow the water purifier to flush purified
water to the reject water outlet via the
purified water hose. If no tap is installed,
this takes place automatically. Pull out the
plug after 10 minutes and connect the
purified water hose to any peripheral
equipment. If the tap is installed, open the
tap and allow the water purifier to produce
purified water for 10 minutes. Close the
tap.
The water purifier is now ready to produce
purified water.

INSTALLATION
Calibration
To achieve a starting position for the degree of
purification based specifically on your water, the
water purifier must be calibrated (reset).
Calibration may only be performed if:
• The water purifier is new and has never
been used before.
• The incoming water quality changes for
some reason, such as moving the water
purifier.
• Membrane replacement has recently
been carried out.
Do not drink or use the water that is
produced during the calibration
procedure!
To calibrate the water purifier:
1. With tap installed: Open the purified
water tap. Within 10 seconds (with the tap
still open), you must press the calibration
button, see fig. H, and then hold it
depressed until the lights for purification
levels I and II come on and then go out.
When only the On/Off light is lit, the
button can be released.
1. Without tap connected: After the third
automatic flushing in the flushing
procedure, which takes 30 seconds, the
water purifier stops for a second and then
starts producing purified water to the
reject water outlet. Once the production of
purified water has started, the calibration
button must be pressed within 10
seconds, see fig. H, and then kept
depressed until the lights for purification
levels I and II come on and then go out.
When only the On/Off light is lit, the
button can be released.
If any of the lights for purification levels I-
III does not go out, go through the
Checkpoints under “Flushing” again and
restart calibration.
2. Allow the water purifier to produce purified
water for at least 10 minutes. The lights
for purification levels I and II flash once.
The current water quality level is
displayed by the lamp for level III starting
to shine continuously, indicating the
maximum degree of purity.
3. If a wandering flashing light appears
between the lights for levels I - III, the
calibration has been carried out
incorrectly. In this case, repeat the
calibration from the beginning.
4. With tap installed: Close the purified
water tap and allow the water purifier to
flush automatically. Allow the flushing to
stop.
4. Without tap installed: Pull out the plug,
wait for one minute and then reconnect it.
The water purifier flushes. Pull out the
plug after the automatic flushing. Connect
the purified water hose to the peripheral
equipment.
The water purifier is now ready to produce
purified water.
H
Moving the water purifier
If you move the purifier from one place to another,
you should remember the following points:
• Close the shut-off valve for the feed
water.
• Pull out the plug.
• Always transport the appliance upright.
• Installation takes place according to the
installation instructions.
• New calibration should only be performed
if the quality of the feed water has
changed, or if the membrane has been
replaced.
The appliance must be put in storage if
it is not going to be used for a period
of more than 4 months, see the section
“Storage”.
