Cleaning
Do not use strong, corrosive, spray or abrasive cleaners. Clean with a soft cloth
or brush and mild soap and water.
Do not spray water over the tap as it may damage the low-voltage electronics.
Undersink units must never be cleaned with water jets.
The Zenith HydroTap notifies the user when filter replacement is due. The default
seting is 6000L. When a filter change is due, the Change Filter light flashes once
a minute and remains so until reset. The filter status light is located between the
Red and Blue Lights on the tap head assembly. Depending on local water quality
conditions and usage, the filter change period can be set in increments of 1000L
from 1,000L to 10,000L. The filter may also need to be replaced if unpleasant
odours or tastes occur.

towel handy to catch drips and mop up any spills. To change the filter:
