[. . . ] Take care of this manual and make sure that it accompanies the water purifier if it is moved or sold, so the user will always have access to the full instructions and the safety information. To help you identify warnings and other important information we have used this symbol to gain your attention: While reading the manual you will find it useful to open out this folded page so you can refer back to the illustration "General View of the Appliance". 2 GENERAL VIEW OF THE APPLIANCE 1 2 10 11 3 5 9 4 Control panel 8 64 7 Filter container Base plate Filter container Supplied with the RO 400: 1 Bracket for reject water hose* 2 Hose for discharge of reject water to waste pipe 3 Connection piece, reject water hose* 4 Hose clip (x 2)* 5 Hose for feed water * packed in a separate bag 3 6 7 8 9 10 11 Elbow for purified water hose* Filter spanner Self-adhesive information panel Hose for purified water Tap for purified water Indicator lights YOUR NEW WATER PURIFIER Unpacking If the appliance has been damaged during transportation, you should immediately notify the company responsible for delivering it.

[. . . ] To restart it, follow the instructions in the "Trouble-shooting table". · The appliance will switch automatically to flushing mode for a brief period once every 12 hours (approximately), provided the water and power supplies are connected. This periodic flushing takes place no matter when the appliance was last used. When using the RO 400, it is sensible to fill a jug with drinking water while it is operating. Try to avoid starting it working just to fill a single glass at a time. This helps save water, because each time the appliance purifies water, a certain amount is lost (via the reject water outlet) before the optimum purification level is reached, and the RO 400 also switches to flushing mode after it is used. B 1 On Off 2 On 13 MAINTENANCE Replacing the filters It is important to replace the filters (in the filter containers) as soon as they need replacing, since their main function is to protect the membrane. Check for any signs of leaks just after you have replaced them and again after you have used the appliance a few more times.

See "Descaling". The appliance starts working on its own (briefly, without tap being turned on). The hose for purified water is not pressed all the way home at the connection on the appliance. Or there may be a leak at the connection of hose to tap, or the hose for this tap may have been shortened (cut) incorrectly. The tap is leaking, which causes the RO 400 to respond constantly to the loss of pressure. [. . . ]
