IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed to reduce the risk of re, electric
shock and injury to persons or property. Read all instructions before using any appliance.
1. Keep combustible material such as furniture,
bedding, pillows, clothes and/or papers away
from the back of the unit.
2. Do not operate this, or any other appliance, with
a damaged power cord.
3. No other appliance should be plugged into
the same outlet. Be sure that the plug is fully
inserted into the outlet.
4. Do not run the power cord over carpeting or
other heat insulators.
5. Do not cover the power cord.
6. Keep the power cord away from high trafc
areas.
7. Do not submerge the power cord in water.
8. We do not recommend the use of extension
cords as they may overheat and increase the
risk of re.
9. Exercise caution and use reasonable supervision
when the appliance is used by or near children.
10. Make sure that there is at least 75 mm of space
between the back of unit and wall. Keep a
minimum of 75 mm on each side of unit free.
11. Do not use this product to dispense anything
other than water.
12. This appliance must be placed on an even and
at surface.
13. If the supply cord is damaged, the manufacturer,
one of its service agents or a similarly qualied
person must replace it in order to avoid hazard.
14. This water fountain must be positioned so the
plug is accessible.
15. Disconnect the plug from the outlet when not
in use.
16. Remove power plug or disconnect from main
power source before servicing the appliance.
17. Warranty will be voided if installation is not
carried out as detailed in this instruction manual.
18. The compressor motor is equipped with an
automatic reset protector which will disconnect
the motor from the line in case of an overload.
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 qualied electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. If the wall outlet is a standard,
2-prong outlet, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly-
grounded, 3-prong wall outlet.
• 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.

UNPACKING THE WATER FOUNTAIN
1. After unpacking the water fountain, wipe with a soft cloth. Check the unit for evidence of rough handling.
2. Place the machine on a hard, at surface. Make certain the unit is level. The unit should not be close to
sources of heat, otherwise performance may be affected.
3. It is best to place the water fountain in an area with good air circulation. Make sure there is at least 75 mm
of space between the back of the fountain and the wall.
INSTALLATION
The installation must be in accordance with AS/NZS 3500.1 and AS/NZS 3500.2. Pipe jointing is a trade skill and
Aqua Cooler recommends this process is performed by qualied personnel only.
1. Ensure proper ventilation by allowing 75 mm clearance on each side of the fountain.
2. Minimum water pressure is 100 kPa and maximum is 700 kPa.
3. The recommended maximum water inlet temperature is 38°C.
4. Install a 40 mm waste trap onto the waste outlet on the rear of the fountain - not supplied.
5. Water in connection is secured via a 1/2” kinko nut and olive into the stainless-steel connection on the
rear of the unit. It is recommended that a 1/2” shut off valve is installed at this point for ease of future
maintenance.
6. Turn on water supply and hold down bubbler to purge the system of air until a steady stream of water
comes from the tap.
7. For models equipped with a glass ller, please assemble the glass ller by placing the neck onto the white
tubing pre-installed on the top of the lid, as shown below.
8. The bubbler needs to be adjusted for the correct water ow in relation to the local water pressure. On the
side of the bubbler is an inner and an outer screw. Once you have established water ow, adjust the inner
screw until the stream is in the center of the stainless-steel top.
9. Check all connections for water leaks.
10. Flush fresh mains water through the unit for ve minutes to ensure any residual water from testing is
cleared.
11. Plug the fountain into the building electrical supply. The unit will start automatically.

DRAIN INSTALLATION
NOTE: Pipe jointing is a trade skill and should be executed only by qualied persons. Aqua Cooler recommends
installing a union as part of the PVC drain assembly to enable ease of disconnection if the fountain requires
service.
1. Make sure all connections are cleaned and dry.*
2. Mark waste pipe at a distance equivalent to full depth once inserted into the drain tting on the unit.
3. Apply Watermark certicated Type N solvent cement on the end of the Watermarked AS/NZS 1260 40mm
PVC pipe and insert into the Aqua Cooler drain outlet tting. Firstly to the inside of the M Series drain
tting and then to the external surface of the pipe end (marked area). (See Figure.1) #
4. Please ensure the solvent cement is applied in full even coats to all applicable surfaces.
5. Follow the direction line in gure.1 to connect the PVC pipe to the full depth of the socket and hold the
bond joint in position for at least 30 seconds.
6. Do not disturb for 5 minutes and allow 24 hours curing before testing. (See Figure.2)
* Aqua Cooler suggests using PVC priming uid to prime PVC pipe prior to application of PCB pipe cement for
all installations.
#2: Using both pipe cement type N and type P are both acceptable. Pipe cement type P is recommended
in high pressure application for bonding, while type N is for the non-pressure application. Aqua Cooler
recommends using pipe cement type N complying with AS/NZS3879 for this application.
Please be aware that the connection should be done by an Australian certied plumber.
The socket is adaptable to Watermarked AS/NZS 1260 40mm PVC pipe tting as per the WMTS105
documentation.

REMOVING FROM SERVICE
1. Disconnect the power supply cord.
2. Disconnect the water supply.
3. Remove drain assembly from rear of the fountain.
4. Remove bubbler valve and if present, glass ller.
5. Always drain all water when freezing temperatures are anticipated and before shipping the fountain.
MAINTENANCE
• The only maintenance operation required is the removal of dirt and lint from the condenser. Inspection
should be made at 3 month intervals.
1. Disconnect the power supply.
2. Clean the condenser with a small stiff non-wire brush.
• The unit is equipped with a hermetically sealed compressor and requires no additional lubrication.
• The fan motor on this unit seldom needs oiling. If required, a few drops of SAE 10 oil should be used.
• 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.
• If customers require the unit’s spare parts information, please contact the Aqua Cooler Service Department
for further assistance. The direct line is located on the back of this manual.
