Introduction The operation of the Quooker The Quooker system consists of a small tank under the sink which is connected to the boiling-water tap. This tank is connected to the water by a so-called inlet combination. The water is heated electrically to approx. 110°C and is kept at this temperature. When boiling water is drawn off, cold water flows into the tank at the same time and is automatically heated.

Overview of Quooker installation It is recommended that you install the Quooker in the following order: A. Drill hole B. Fit tap C. Connect water D. Connect drain E.
A 1 Drilling hole • The tap should be located in one corner of the basin(s). • N.B. It must be possible to move the tap outlet freely up and down. When the outlet is in its lowest position it projects approx.25 cm below the sink. Bear this in mind when fitting the inlet combination, sockets and the like. • The radius of the outlet is a good 16 cm from the centre of the tap hole, which determines how far the outlet extends into the basin.
B 1 Fitting tap • N.B. The total length of the boiling water hose is only 50 cm. The tank must therefore be fitted close to the tap. An extension hose is available but is not normally required. 2 1 Tap through sink Slacken the brass sink nut. Clinch the loop in the hose and remove the sink nut and the loose metal ring. Push the tap through the hole in the sink. Fit the rubber ring between the tap and the sink.
C 1 Connecting water • N.B. The Quooker operates under water supply pressure and must always be fitted with the inlet combination (supplied). • The Quooker boiling-water tap must be connected according to the locally applicable regulations. • Position the inlet combination at such a height that the difference in height between it and the drain is the maximum possible to allow the expansion water to run off (see D4). 2 1 Cutting through cold water pipe Cut through the cold water pipe at a suitable point.
D 1 Connecting drain The Quooker tank releases expansion water via the inlet combination during heating, this water being fed into the transparent funnel. The funnel can easily be connected to the drain by means of the drain hose supplied. The drilling kit also supplied can be used to make a connection to the drain pipe. Try to keep the difference in height between the inlet combination and the connection to the drain as large as possible as the drain water can flow back.
E 1 Connecting tank • N.B. Do not switch on the Quooker until the tank is filled with water. • The Quooker tank is supplied with a 3-core mains cord with earthed plug. All that is required is an earthed socket close to the appliance. • The Quooker tap is fitted with an indicator lamp which indicates whether or not the heating element is heating. 2 1 Connecting tank Place the Quooker in position and connect it to the inlet combination with the fibre ring supplied.
