ATTENTION: DON’T MOVE THE TAP KNOB BEFORE THE SEQUENCE IS COMPLETED

If the reset is correct, the blue LED flashes while you suply water. If the reset is not correct, the red LED flashes.

If the tap is closed and you don’t supply water for more than 8 hours, when you open the tap, the yellow LED flashes for 3 seconds. Wait for the LED to turn blue before drinking or using water.

When the circuit counter reaches the count of 2,800 minutes, the blue LED stops flashing, and the red LED starts flashing to indicate the reserve, until you get to 3,000 minutes.

When 3,000 minutes have passed, you will need to change the filter. The red LED stays on or doesn’t flash, indicating that the cartridge is exhausted, even if the tap is not delivering water. The red LED also flashes after a calendar year has passed from the circuit start, indicating that you have to change the filter. In any case, reset the circuit. If 3,000 minutes or a calendar year haven’t passed and you remove and reinsert the battery, the count reset will not happen, as the circuit will normally store the minutes it has delivered within a 3,000 minute or year cycle.

TAP CIRCUIT FUNCTIONSSTART/RESET THE CIRCUIT

Close the tap, insert the battery into the circuit, and insert it into the tap within 30 seconds, verify that the 1 LEDs flash with this sequence: the red for 7 seconds, the blue for 7 seconds and the yellow for 7 seconds. The LEDs remain off for 7 seconds and if the circuit detects a successful reset, the 3 LEDs will flash simultaneously for about 3 seconds. If the circuit didn’t detect the reset, the red LED flashes and stays on constantly, so remove and insert the battery again.
