# Filter Replacement
Not changing cartridges when required may cause the water to become biologically unsafe.
Thoroughly flush the water through if the filter tap has not been used for more than 12 hours. For safe operation, the
filter cartridge should be replaced at least every 6-12 months, or earlier if you notice a persistent reduction in water
pressure from the Filter Tap, or an unpleasant taste or odour in the water.
Use only a Zip filter cartridge to match that of your Filter Tap. Replacement cartridges can be obtained through plumbing
suppliers or directly from Zip.
When replacing your Zip filter cartridge, replacement instruction will be provided with your replacement cartridge kit.
Operating
You can obtain filtered water within the rated capacity for as long as you rotate the
lever. In the upright position the tap is off, when the lever is rotated anticlockwise
water will flow. Water will continue to flow until the lever is returned to the upright
position.
Cleaning
Never use strong, corrosive or abrasive cleaning materials on the Zip Filter Tap. Wipe
the outer surfaces clean with a sponge or a soft cloth using a mild soap and water.
