Electric Shock Hazard: Using an ungrounded or improperly connected
appliance can result in serious injury or death from electrical shock.
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 installed by a qualified
electrician. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the instant hot
water dispenser is properly grounded.
Personal Injury: This tank is a non-pressurized tank. DO NOT modify this system.
DO NOT close vent tube or connect other type dispensers or valves to the tank. Use only
the InSinkErator dispenser faucet supplied. Use only parts provided. Contact an
authorized InSinkErator Service agent for repairs or replacement components.
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.
Property Damage: To avoid water damage, replace any loose or split tubing.
Periodically inspect the unit for any signs of leakage and immediately remove from
service any unit suspected of leaking.
An instant hot water dispenser, like any water heater, has a limited life and will eventually fail.
To avoid possible property damage and personal injury, this instant hot water dispenser
should be regularly examined for leakage and/or corrosion 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. To check for
corrosion, examine the appearance of the dispensed water in a clear glass once every three
(3) months. If there is any discoloration or rusty appearance, unplug and drain unit as
described in the Seasonal Storage/Drainage section on page 13 of this manual. If the water
discoloration remains after draining and refilling unit, discontinue use and contact an
authorized InSinkErator service agent.
