SECTION 3 WARNINGS & REGULATORY INFORMATION
• Never locate the system near, or clean with water jets.
• Do not expose the appliance to the elements of nature.
• A pressure limiting valve must be fitted for mains water pressures above
the max. limits stated.
• Use of tools can be hazardous, assess the risks before you start.
• A clearance envelope around the appliance must be provided to allow
adequate ventilation and service access for safe and effective use.
• Valve and fitting threads must be sealed appropriately with PTFE tape
where compression seals are not provided. Do not over tighten plumbing
and hose connections.
• The power cord and power outlet must be in a safe and accessible
position after installation. When positioning the appliance, ensure the

replaced by a Zip service provider or a qualified electrician.
• Do not stand anything on top of the mains electrical connector casing.
• Ensure that the mains electrical connector casing is safety positioned
such that it is not in contact with water and does not present a trip
hazard.
• For UK, this appliance only contains materials that conform to the
requirements of BS6920:2014 ‘Suitability of non metallic materials and
products for use in contact with water intended for human consumption
with regard to their effect on the quality of water’.
• Zip cannot be held responsible for any appliance malfunction if the water
pressure exceeds that stated. If in doubt, consult your water supply
company.
• Zip cannot be held responsible for lime-scale related problems even
when a lime-scale reducer has been installed.
• As with all refrigeration systems, irreparable damage can be caused by
laying the chiller on its side or even transporting upside down.

This device must be installed vertically with
the direction of flow downwards (inlet at
the top, outlet at the bottom). See Fig. 1.
• The Water block should be installed in a convenient
location on the water supply line to the appliance.
• Rotate Pointer ‘P’ (see Fig.3) until in line with the max.
required flow. The number scale corresponds to 5 litres
of flow i.e. 1 = 5 litres, 10 = 50 litres.
• The key (see Fig.2) should be used to adjust the pointer.
• The inlet should be connected via a 15mm copper tail or
install rail.
• The outlet shall be connected via the 3/4” BSP - 1/4”
push fit brass fitting supplied.
• Ensure that the direction of flow through the Water block is correct and
that the filter screen (see Fig.2) is inserted correctly with the convex
surface facing towards the water supply.
6.6.2 Water block
6.6.3 Reset Procedure
• The Water block will activate and shut off the supply if more water than the
set amount is drawn off at one time.
• In this event isolate the water supply to the Water block.

SECTION 7 Commissioning and operation
7.1 Switch on, commissioning and operation
• Secure all pipes and cables.
• Turn on the mains water supply and check
for leaks.
• Switch on the mains power supply.
• Due to the factory sanitisation process,
residue from the sanitisation liquid
might remain in the appliance, which
requires the appliance to be flushed with
fresh water at installation. So the first
few glasses of water may look soapy with
presence of bubbles.
• As part of the sanitising process press
the tap lever to flush the filter through
with 10 litres of water before first use.
• Check that the water is clear.
• Wait 10mins for the appliance to reach
the correct temperature.
• Pull the tap lever forward to manually
dispense water from the tap.
• The lever is spring loaded, and returns to
the closed position automatically.
