◼ Unscrew and remove the aerator from your tap.
◼ Screw the Adaptor Ring that ts your tap if required.
◼ Screw the Flow Diverter to the tap/adaptor.
◼ Slide the Water Soener on to the tube.
◼ Aach the tube to the Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV).
◼ Use tubing to connect to the outlet of the PRV to the
Tap Water Inlet connecon on the back of the unit.

Installaon
Cauon
◼ All threaded connecons to the cold water supply should be covered with Teon
tape to avoid the chance of leaks.
◼ If you need to relocate the unit, be careful not to over-stress any connecon.
Over-stressing a connecon can cause the connecons to leak aer the unit is
relocated. Over-stressing can cause the O-rings and seals to distort and not seal
or seat properly. Under mains pressure condions these over-stressed joints may
leak or break.
◼ If connecons are overghtened, then leaks are possible. And if connecons are
too loose, then leaks are also possible. For best result ensure connecons are
ght enough to not produce any leaks but not too ght to damage them. Use
Teon tape on all male thread connecons.
◼ If the tube between the inlet and water drain port is installed incorrectly, it may
mean the unit will not generate hydrogen and cause the unit to fail. Any failure
due to incorrect installaon is not covered by warranty.
How to Cut the Tubing for Connecon
◼ Use a very sharp knife or razor blade to get a clean right angle cut.
◼ Check to make sure you have a clean and even end.

Turn OFF the water control valve
before connecng the water
supply tubing to the machine.
Aach the 90° elbow connectors
to water input and output ports
on the back of the machine.
Connect water supply tubing to
the elbow connector.
Cauon
Inlet and outlet check
◼ Ensure the water inlet and outlet are connected correctly. Refer to Page 9 Unit
Back diagram. If the unit is used with the inlet (IN) and outlet (OUT) reversed,
then it will cause severe internal damage to the hydrogen cell and the unit will
stop working. This error is not covered under the product warranty.

How to measure your tap’s aerator
Please place the water Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) between the
tap ow diverter valve and the unit.
Standard tap adaptor rings are supplied with the Higen 1+. These adaptors meet
the Australian tap thread sizes standard and will t most taps in Australia.
If these adaptor rings don’t t to your tap, please call AlkaWay on 1800 268 469
or email us at [e-mail] with a photo of your tap and a photo
showing a very clear measurement of your aerator as pictured above. Make sure
the ruler runs exactly through the center of the aerator (measure in mm).

Installaon
Flow Diverter Installaon
Removing aerator from your tap
◼ Most modern mixer taps have an aerator that
can be unscrewed counter-clockwise (make sure
you keep this in a safe place, as oen they are
unique to each tap and hard to replace).
Aaching the ow diverter to your tap
◼ Screw the adaptor ring to the diverter (hand
ght). Then screw the adaptor ring diverter
assembly to the tap (use a lile Teon plumbers’
tape if needed), taking care not to twist the
hose.
Shortening hose from the ow diverter
◼ If you need the hose to be short, remove the
hose by unscrewing the knurled collar from the
diverter and pull o the hose from the diverter.
Then cut the hose to the required length. Push
the hose back onto the diverter and re-screw on
the knurled collar ghtly.
Using the ow diverter
Push the diverter pin to divert ow into your Higen
1+.

Installaon
Cauon
◼ The water drain hose MUST be less than 600mm long. Shorter is beer. A
longer drain hose will cause an increase in back pressure. This will cause the unit
to produce lower concentraons of hydrogen and potenally cause it to fail.
◼ Place the drain hose end for water drain port lower than the machine.
Connect drain tubing to the elbow
connector. Read Cauon below.
Plug in the power. You will hear a
start-up sound and all lights will
turn on for 3 seconds.
The hydrogen water level is
automacally set to level 2.
Push bar across on the ow
diverter so when tap is turned on
water will ow to the unit. Cold
water only. Turn the ON/OFF
valve ON to start water ow.
Cauon
◼ Check the hose connecons for leaks before using the device.
◼ Diverter installaon on the end of your tap is recommended. Flush machine by
pressing the puried water buon. Run for 5-10 minutes or unl water runs

Installaon Checklist
◼ A simple way of measuring the ow rate is me how long it takes to ll a 200ml
cup with water from the unit. It should take about 13-14 second. This equates to
a ow rate of around 0.7-0.8L/min (Which is normal operaon).
How to check the water pressure and ow rate
If the water pressure is too low or high, a warning buzzer will sound, when the
ON/OFF valve is turned on. The warning buzzer will sound if the water ow is
lower than 0.5 liters/min or higher than 3.5 liters/min. To adjust the ow, turn
the adjustment screw on top of the Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV).
(The working water pressure is 21 to 42 PSI and water ow is 0.7- 0.8L/ min)
Source water: Ground/bore, rain or town water?
The Higen 1+ is only suitable for town water supplies. Contact us for more
details on 1800 268 469.
For areas with high limestone/calcium in the water, we supply a water
condioner (high powered magnet on the inlet tube) to help control build up.
Contact us on 1800 268 469 for more informaon.
For hard water, choose appropriate pre-lter to be installed before the unit.
Contact us on 1800 268 469 for more informaon.
Clean the machine by pressing the Clean/Set buon regularly. To protect the
electrolysis cell, aer 30 liters the unit will give you audio alert and go into
automac cleaning for 60 seconds.
Diverter installaon: To prolong the life of the ow diverter, turn o the tap,
push bar over (diverng the water) then turn on the tap. This will help protect
the ow diverter. Turn the ON/OFF Valve on to access the water.

How to Use the Higen 1+
Once you turn the ON/OFF valve
to the On posion the water will
ow and the green LED lights
will start blinking.
DO NOT DRINK OZONE WATER
The opmized amount of ow is
0.7-0.8 Liters per minute
(including Ozone water).
The water ow can be
controlled by the ON/OFF Valve.
Turn the knob to adjust the ow.
Notes
◼ Once you start water owing from the Faucet/Spout the lter lifespan indicator
lights will light up. The lights indicate how much lter life is le (for 3 seconds).
Then the lights will cycle on from le to right as the units is dispensing water.
◼ Default seng for Hydrogen Water is level 2.
◼ To protect the electrolysis cell, aer 30 liters the unit will give you an audio alert
and go into automac cleaning for 60 seconds.
◼ Even aer turning the ON/OFF valve to the OFF posion, the water could come out
for another 3-5 seconds. Please don't worry as this is the normal.
◼ Replace the lter every 12 months even if the lter capacity hasn’t been exceeded.

When to Change the Filter
Cauon
◼ For poor quality source (inlet) water, a prelter lter is required before the
Higen 1+ unit. Contact us on 1800 268 469 for more informaon.
◼ In case of any abnormal scent from the outlet water, replace lter with a
new one even if the lter is less than 12 months old.
◼ Replace the lter every 12 months even if the lter capacity hasn’t been
exceeded.

Water treatment capacity and service life of lter:
◼ Filter life me will be eected by the quality of the source water.
Filter replacement me:
◼ Filter life is 3000 litres or 12 months. So replace the lter at 3000L or 12 months,
which ever comes rst, even if there is sll lter capacity.
◼ When the ON/OFF valve is turn on, the green LED lights will light up (solid for 3
seconds). These lights indicate how much life is le in the lter.
◼ 4 lights means 100% lter life le to use,
◼ 3 lights means 75% lter life le (25% used),
◼ 2 lights means 50% lter life le (50% used),
◼ 1 lights means 25% lter life le (75% used) and,
◼ no lights means lter life is used up. Replace the lter.

How to Change the lter
Please remove the plasc cover from the
new lter. Place the lter onto the lter
holder and press it into place. Ensure the
PCB board is facing toward you as shown
in image (le). Turn the lter 90° (¼
turn) clock-wise to lock it into posion.
Make sure that the rubber ring
in the connecon between the
lter and the main body is not
detached or jammed. Failure to
do so may cause a water leak.
Turn the lter 90° (¼ turn)
counter-clock-wise. Then pull
the lter free.
Disconnect the electric connecon to
the lter monitoring sensor (PCB)
located on the top of the water lter.
NOTE: DO NOT PULL ON THE WIRES.
