SAFETY TIPS
We strongly recommend that one of our professional BIBO Service Technicians installs your BIBO to ensure
compliance with AS/NZS 3500.4 and any applicable local plumbing and electrical regulations.
Should you wish to arrange installation yourself we recommend using a plumber or other suitably qualified person. For
any questions about installation please call us on 1300 002 426.
Your BIBO weighs 15Kgs so please take care when lifting it from its box.
Install your BIBO in a cool, dry, well ventilated place away from sunlight and heat sources.
Keep the rear of your BIBO at least 8cm (3”) away from the wall for adequate ventilation.
Your BIBO requires a standard 230 Volt/10 Amp power supply.
When installing your BIBO use only parts supplied with the machine or if necessary additional certified parts from a
plumbing supply store.
For further safety instructions refer to page 6 of your BIBO User Manual.

Locate your BIBO near to a mains water supply such as a sink, dishwasher, or washing machine.
For best results the mains water pressure should be between 150kPa and 600kPa.
The Pressure Limiting Valve supplied MUST be installed in the water supply connection.
If a water softener is fitted on the premises your BIBO MUST be connected before the water softener i.e. to an
un-softened water supply.

INSTALLATION KIT
The Installation Kit included with your BIBO is designed for connection to a standard ½” Shutoff Valve for the cold
water supply located under the sink.
If there is no existing Shutoff Valve our Service Technician or a plumber can easily fit one and or supply any
additional certified fittings necessary to connect your BIBO to the mains water supply.
The Installation Kit contains the following:
1. 1 x 3m length of White Water Pipe (¼”)
2. 1 x Dual CV Pressure Limiting Valve (¼”)
3. 1 x Angle Check Valve connector (½” male/female to ¼”)
4. 1 x Stem Elbow connector (¼” male/female)

CONNECTION BELOW THE SINK
1. Turn off the cold water Shutoff Valve under the sink and check the cold tap stops running.
2. With a shifting spanner remove the ½” braided hose from the cold water Shutoff Valve
3. Attach the female connection of the Angle Check Valve to the cold water Shutoff Valve. (Picture 1)
4. Re-attach the ½” braided hose to the male connection of the Angle Check Valve. (Picture 1)
5. Using a sharp Stanley knife cut a short 15cm (6”) length of ¼” White Water Pipe from the 3m length provided.
(NOTE: ensure the Pipe is cut cleanly at right angles without crushing it).
6. Insert one end of the short length of Pipe into the ¼” connection of the Angle Check Valve. (NOTE: when
inserting ¼” pipe into fittings always ensure it is fully pressed in). (Picture 2)
7. Insert the other end of the short length of pipe into the bottom end of the Pressure Limiting Valve (NOTE: ensure
the arrow on the Pressure Limiting Valve faces away from the water supply towards the BIBO). (Picture 2)
8. Insert one end of the remaining long length of ¼” Pipe into the top end of the Pressure Limiting Valve. (Picture 3)
9. Feed the other end of the long length of ¼” pipe behind the cupboards to a point just under the bench where
your BIBO will be located.
