Troubleshooting

No hot water or insufficient hot water

Check that the boiler is powered on and correctly connected. Verify that the water supply valves are open. Ensure the filter cartridge is not blocked and the water pressure meets the minimum requirement.

Tap is leaking

Inspect all connections for tightness. Check the seals and O-rings for damage and replace if necessary. Ensure the filter cartridge is seated correctly.

Child safety lock is difficult to operate

Ensure the lever is in the correct neutral position before engaging the safety lock. Refer to the user manual for the specific operation sequence.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Ensure the unit is installed according to the manufacturer's instructions, paying close attention to the boiler's placement and ventilation requirements.

Compatibility: This tap is suitable for both high and low water pressure systems. However, for the best performance, particularly consistent flow rates, consult the product specifications for minimum required water pressure.
