INFORMATION

SAFETY INFORMATION

Installation and service

UV-160 should only be installed and used with cold water

Ensure that you are aware of local regulations, recommenda-

tions, plumbing codes etc. before UV 160 is installed.

UV 160 shall not be installed in places where temperature

drops below +2ºC.

Don´t put the water puriﬁ er in a hot/cold place or in direct

sunlight.

Any damage to the power cord or the plug may only be

repaired by an authorized service provider.

UV 160 shall always be installed upright (vertically).

Check that the inlet hose and power cord is not kinked,

squeezed etc. when the water puriﬁ er is moved, for example

during installation and/or cleaning.

Some faucets shall not be exposed to counter pressure, for

example due to the installation of a water puriﬁ er, since

seals are not always of the necessary quality. Check with the

supplier of the faucet.

If the inlet water is unﬁ t for drinking, a sample of the pu-

riﬁ ed water from UV 160 shall be taken for analysis after

installation. If the analysis result shows that the water is ﬁ t

for drinking, tests should be made regularly.

Note!

If the taste or smell deteriorates, a new test shall im-

mediately be made!

Note!

Do not drink the water if the analysis of the puriﬁ ed

water is not satisfying. Contact your dealer for further infor-

mation.

MAINTENANCE

Regular care and maintenance

For optimal function and service life:

Check the indicator lamps, red ( 1 ) and green ( 2 )

every time the UV160 is used, to ensure the UV160

is functioning correctly. The green lamp should nor-

mally be lit after 10 sec. If the red lamp is lit more

then 15 sec. or none of the lamps are lit, see section

”Trouble-shooting guide”.

Everyday care of the UV160 simply consists of

keeping it clean. The outside of the UV160 should

be cleaned using a damp, but not wet cloth.

Once a month check that all connections to the

UV160 are properly tightened and not leaking.

Do not pour over, or submerge the unit into,

water and do not use any corrosive or abrasive

cleaning products.

The descaling procedure should be carried out at

regular intervals, depending on the hardness of the

water, see the

table 1, Frequencey of descaling

Be sure to replace the carbon block. The life of the

carbon block is determined by the level of impurities

in your water supply. The carbon block needs replac-

ing when the water ﬂ ow has decreased to about half

the normal amount, or when it has been in service

for six months.

After replacing the carbon block, allow the used

carbon block to drain for a few minutes. It can be

discarded in your ordinary household waste as it

does not contain any substances which are hazardous

to the environment (assuming the UV160 has been

used for the purpose for which it was intended)
