■ If you suspect elevated levels of chlorine in your water, it is recommended to use our water
filtration system.
■ The use of a water filter should NOT result in the water pressure to drop below 30 psi (207kPa).
If it does, this will prevent your unit from operating properly.
■ Moving parts inside the tank causing a rattling noise is normal.

Personal Injury: Do not locate filter above an outlet or other
electrical device. Install head and bracket so that connections
require no stretching,kinking or pinching of tubing.
It is normal for approximately 2 oz. of water to
discharge when filter is removed.

Press in again to ensure a secure fit.
■ Insert the other white 3/8" tube
into outlet side of filter head
until it stops. Press in again to
ensure a secure fit.
■ Mark hole locations for filter head
and bracket in a spot that allows
for filter replacement.
■ Drill 1/8" starter holes and attach
bracket to wall with wood screws,
turning until snug.
■ Remove red filter cap, insert filter
cartridge into filter head and twist
clockwise until “LOCK” arrow on the
filter aligns with arrow on bracket.
■ To redirect filter replacement water
discharge, place 6" clear tube over
vent hole on the left side of filter head.
■ Note: 3/8" fitting is required to make
connection to water supply.
■ Connect remaining white 3/8" tube

Scalding Hazard: Do not allow
water to boil. May result in
severe burns.
Replace filter cartridge when there is an obvious
decrease in water flow to the faucet or if there is an
objectionable taste or odor to the water.
When the inlet and outlet ports have been closed
and the filter’s internal pressure has been relieved,
water (about 2 oz) will discharge from vent line.
If the new filter cartridge cannot be inserted,
insert the old one and turn until it stops, remove it
and then retry the new cartridge.
Carbon filters should be replaced within 12 months.
Filter replacement instructions:
■
Replace with an InSinkErator®filter.
■
Place pan or dish towel under the filter to
catch water drainage during change.
■
Slowly turn the cartridge counter-clockwise
completely until it stops (1/4 turn).
■
Pull cartridge straight down and discard.
■
Insert new cartridge into filter head.
■
Top surface of cartridge will become flush
with the bottom of the filter head when
fully engaged.
■
Turn the cartridge clockwise until it stops
(1/4 turn).
■
Align the in/out arrow on the head and
bracket assembly to the in/out arrow on
the cartridge.
■■ Open faucet to expel trapped air.
■■ Run water for 3 minutes before usage.
Factory temperature pre-set is 200˚F.
To reset the thermostat to 200°,
turn the indicator two notches to
the right of vertical.
■
Adjust the thermostat slowly,
turning the dial clockwise
to increase temperature or
counter clockwise to decrease temperature, then
activate faucet handle for 20 seconds to bring in
fresh water to be heated at the new setting. Allow
5-7 minutes for water to reach new temperature.

Covers all replacement parts and labor to correct defects in material or workmanship in the
dispenser system, excluding the replaceable filter cartridge, for the full warranty period from
the date of installation in your home. If warranty service is required during the warranty period,
contact an authorized InSinkErator service agent to replace or repair the unit in your home at

This appliance must be grounded. This instant hot water dispenser is equipped with a cord that
has a grounding conductor and a grounding pin. The plug must be connected to an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet

WARRANTY INFORMATION
Fire Hazard: To minimize possibility of fire, DO NOT store flammable items such as
rags, paper or aerosol cans near the tank. DO NOT store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
An instant hot water dispenser, like any water heater, has a limited life and will eventually
fail. To avoid possible property damage, this instant hot water dispenser should be
regularly examined for leakage and replaced when necessary. A drain pan, plumbed to
an appropriate drain or outfitted with a leak detector, should be used in those
applications where any leakage could cause property damage.
