CARE AND USE
!
CAUTION: Electric Shock Hazard. To prevent electrical shock, disconnect power before servicing unit. Use only a
properly earthed (grounded) and polarized GFCI electric outlet.
ADJUSTING THE THERMOSTAT
For ideal performance adjust the tank temperature to the setting two steps down (approximately
205°F, 96°C) from the maximum setting. Turn the dial on front of the tank clockwise or counter
clockwise to raise or lower the water temperature. After adjusting, depress or twist the dispenser
handle for 20 seconds for water to re-heat to the new setting.

FILTER GUIDE AND REPLACEMENT
To reduce the risk of water leakage or flooding, and to ensure optimal filter performance:
Change the disposable filter cartridge; the disposable filter cartridge MUST be replaced every 6 months or sooner.
Replace filter cartridge when there is an obvious decrease in water flow to the dispenser or if there is an
objectionable taste or odor to the water.
After the recommended usage life, the filter should be disposed of per applicable rules and regulations.
•
During replacement process, water about 1/4 cup
(60ml) may discharge from filter system head.
•
It is recommended that carbon filters be replaced
every 6 months.
Filter replacement instructions:
1. Replace with an InSinkErator
®
filter.
2. Place pan or dish towel under the filter to catch
water drainage during change.
3. Slowly turn the cartridge counterclockwise
completely until it stops (1/4 turn).
4. Pull cartridge straight down and discard.
5. Insert new cartridge into filter head.

unplug and drain unit as described in the
Seasonal Storage/Drainage section on this page
of the manual.
ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATION WHEN UTILIZING FILTRATION SYSTEM:
•
Flush filter for 4 minutes, 3 gal (11.4 L) before first use for F-1500.
•
Recommended water flow: F-1500: 1.0 gpm (3.78 lpm)
•
F-1500 filter capacity: 500 gal (1,893 L)

•
Reinstall tank to wall and reconnect tubes.
•
Remove and discard filter cartridge,
if applicable.
•
To put back into working order, install new filter
cartridge (if applicable) and turn on cold water supply
at valve. Depress or twist the hot water dispenser
faucet lever and hold until water flows from the spout.
Plug in the tank.
•
Cleaners with acids, abrasives, alkaline, and organic
solvents will result in deterioration of the plastic
components and void the warranty.
•

the old one and turn counterclockwise until it stops,
remove it and then retry the new cartridge.
6. Top surface of cartridge will become flush with the
bottom of the filter head when fully engaged.
7. Turn the cartridge clockwise until it stops (1/4 turn).
8. Align the in/out arrow on the head and bracket
assembly to the in/out arrow on the cartridge.
9. Open dispenser to expel trapped air.
10. Run water for 4 minutes before usage.
•
If the water discoloration remains after
draining and refilling unit, discontinue use
and contact InSinkErator.
