Safety information

Read all information carefully prior to installing and using

the water softener.

Qualiﬁed Installer

Kinetico recommends that a

qualiﬁed installer performs the

installation. Failure to do so could

invalidate the Limited Warranty.

Water Temperature

Do not install in an area where the

water temperature can exceed

35°C or cause the unit to freeze.

Water Pressure

Do not install if the supply water

pressure exceeds 6 BAR (87

psi), unless a suitable pressure

regulating valve has been installed.

Overﬂow

VERY IMPORTANT:

Where a cabinet overﬂow could

cause damage, you must install

a 1/2” I.D. hose to the barbed

ﬁtting on the cabinet and run to

a suitable outlet that is visible

and capable of taking the

overﬂow (i.e. through the outside

wall). Make sure the hose does

not go higher than the barbed

ﬁtting as the water will ﬂow away

using gravity.
