Important Information About Grounding
To provide additional protection from the risk of shock, this unit MUST be connected
to a residual current device (RCD) outlet at all times. Use of an extension cord will
void any warranties.
This appliance must be grounded. Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a
risk of electric shock, causing serious injury and possibly death.
This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a grounding wire with a
grounding plug and must be connected into a properly-grounded, polarised outlet.
Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the
power cord plug. Do not use an adapter plug with this appliance.
Installation Instructions
Important information about the unit and operation:
1. The underbench chiller is not intended for outdoor use.
2. All service work to be carried out by authorised Aqua Cooler service agents only.
Failure to do so will void the warranty on the water cooler.
3. Warranty will also be voided if installation is not carried out as detailed in the Aqua
Cooler installation instructions.
4. Please ensure the chiller is not tilted during transportation. If the chiller is tilted,
please leave the chiller in upright position for at least 30 minutes before turning on
the chiller.
5. If the power cord is unplugged, please wait for at least 3 minutes to re-plug the power
cord to prevent initiating the overload protector of compressor.
6. The compressor motor is equipped with an automatic reset protector which will
disconnect the motor from the line in case of an overload.
Unpacking the water fountain:
1. Place the machine on a hard, flat surface. Make certain the unit is level. The unit
should not be close to sources of heat otherwise performance may be affected.
2. Please inspect the carton and water cooler for evidence of rough handling and
concealed damage. Damage claims should be filed with the carrier.

Connecting the fountain to mains water supply:
The installation must be in accordance with AS/NZS 3500.1 and AS/NZS 3500.2.
Aqua Cooler recommends this process is performed by qualified personnel only.
1. Ensure power is switched off, the unit should not be turned on until the internal tank
is full.
2. Refer to photo on the next page for parts assembly example.
3. Ensure proper ventilation by allowing 50mm clearance on each side of the cooler.
4. The unit is supplied with a mains pressure relief valve and a shut off valve which must
be installed in between the mains water supply source and the underbench chiller
“water inlet” fitting.
5. Minimum water pressure is 100 kpa and maximum is 700 kpa. The recommended
maximum water inlet temperature is 38°C.
6. Please note this unit is fitted with a waste drain and connection to the mains water
drainage system is required.
7. Check the available power supply against the underbench chiller data plate to assure
correct electrical service. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into the grounded
outlet and that no other appliance is plugged into the same outlet.
8. Connect the mains water to the underbench chiller via 1/4” pipe, ensuring that the
supplied mains pressure relief valve is placed inline between the mains water source
and the water chillers water inlet fitting. We recommend a shut off valve or similar is
installed between the mains water pipework and the pressure limiting valve.
9. Connect the chilled water to the faucet (sold separately) from the water outlet
connection on the underbench chiller to the inlet point connection of the faucet,
please refer to your chosen faucet details for further information.
10. Turn on water supply, ensuring you turn your faucet on to purge the system of air
until a steady stream of water appears from your faucet. Continue to flush fresh
water through the system for 5 minutes.
11. Turn on the thermostat to desired coldness and wait for the water to chill down for
the first time.
12. For models equipped with faucet or glass filler, please assemble the faucet or glass
filler by placing the neck onto the desired position of the sink.
13. Check all connections for water leaks.
Removing from service:
1. Disconnect the power supply cord.
2. Disconnect the water supply.
3. Disconnect the faucet from unit. Refer to your faucet instructions for further
information.
4. Drain the reminding water inside the reservoir.

Maintenance:
1. The only maintenance operation required is the removal of dirt and lint from the
condenser. Inspection should be made at 3 month intervals.
2. Disconnect the power supply.
3. Clean the condenser with a small stiff non-wire brush.
4. The unit is equipped with a hermetically sealed compressor and requires no
additional lubrication.
5. The fan motor on this unit seldom needs oiling. If required, a few drops of SAE 10 oil
should be used
6. Aqua Cooler recommends the water fountain is cleaned every month, ensuring there
is no blockage in the condenser or in the back of the unit. Please remove all
potentially harmful factors to prevent any scratch or damage to the unit.
7. If customers require the unit’s spare parts information, please contact the Aqua
