FITTING THE HEIGHT EXTENSION BASE
Your water cooler has been supplied with a height adjustment base to improve water tap accessibility.
The base requires simple assembly as shown below.
Parts provided:
1 Front Panel and 1 Back Panel
1 Stability Ring (located on the top foam cover, underneath the top box flaps)
2 Thick Screws and 2 Thin Screws (located in the bag with this instruction manual)
Remove all parts and packaged materials from the box.
1) Align both the front and the back panels of
the base and assemble as shown in Figure 1.
2a) Align the assembled base to the bottom
stability ring as shown in Figure 2a. Make sure
the markings “1” and “2” on the base match
the “1”and “2” markings on the stability ring.
Note: These parts must be aligned correctly for
the unit to be properly assembled. If the base is
not aligned to the stability ring correctly, the
retaining clips can be permanently damaged
and cause the base to be un-useable.
2b) Make sure that the clips on each side of
the base and the screw holes align correctly.
Then insert the clips into their respective slots
on the stability ring, as shown in Fig 2b.

the power cord fits securely through the cutout in the back panel. Line up the join-line in the cooler casing
with the join-line in the extension base, so as to find the screw hole. Firmly secure the base to the water
cooler using the 2 thick screws provided.
PRE RINSE INSTRUCTIONS
Your water cooler has been pre-cleaned but the reservoir and water lines should be flushed with fresh tap or
spring water AFTER it has been left to stand upright for 1hr.
Keep the cooler unplugged from the power socket.
Gently twist the water intake spike anticlockwise and lift off the top cover.
Slowly pour into the water tank spring or fresh tap water until the water level is at least 5cm higher
than the internal plastic plate. Let water settle for about two minutes.

cooling indicator lights on the front will light up at first.
Now unplug the dispenser from the electrical outlet. Proceed to drain the water from the taps, one at
a time, until no more water remains. To facilitate this procedure, use a large container/bucket.
To put top cover back on, place into the slots, hold the spike and gently twist clockwise. Lift spike
gently upwards to test that the top cover is now properly secured on the cooler.
Note: Your water dispenser has already been cleaned and sanitized, but in the unlikely case that there is a
slight taste issue, place one tablespoon of baking/bi-carb soda into a bucket of hot fresh tap water, fill the
water tank again, leave it overnight, and then repeat the above pre rinse instructions.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The thermostat is set to deliver cold water generally in the range 6C to 10C, with the unit in a room which
is no greater than 25C. Unit must be placed away from direct sunlight and any heater.
Water temperature will depend upon usage, room temperature and when the cooling system last activated.
Accurate temperatures are measured from the water flow and not from within the container that the water is
dispensed. If you feel that the water temperature is not cold enough or have any queries please contact the
AQUA TO GO Service Centre ph 1300 760 474 or [e-mail]
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

circumstances alter this power plug.

The cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling as this might cause
accidental injury.
Do not use an adapter plug with this appliance.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If the power cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician install an outlet near the appliance.
CLEANING YOUR WATER COOLER OR IF THERE’S A BAD TASTE
We suggest you give your cooler a thorough clean at least every 2 months or earlier if you experience a bad
taste in the water. In between general cleans we recommend that you remove and clean the spike disc with
standard dishwashing detergent.
General cleaning warning
DO NOT immerse the cooler in water. Do not hose the cooler. To prevent damage to the plastic parts, avoid
abrasive cleaning aids such as steel wool. Before cleaning always unplug the cooler from the power socket
and move to a water safe area in case you splash or water leaks. The top cover with spike, drip tray, and the
cooler plastic casing can be cleaned in warm water with any non-abrasive household cleaner, such as a mild
dishwashing liquid. Do not use bleach. Once a month inspect the coils located across the back of the
dispenser. Vacuum any accumulation of dust or clean it with a hard brush.
To clean the stainless steel cooling tank and taps:
Unplug the water cooler from the power and turn off power switch on the rear of the cooler.
Remove bottle and dispense all remaining water from both taps.
Move water cooler to an area outside where when water flows no damage is caused.
Unscrew the rear drain cap, which is located near the bottom of the water cooler casing. Be careful as
the water will flow out and may make a mess.
Leave the unit outside, and unplugged from the power, whilst you do the rest of the below steps.
Hold onto the spike disk, twist it anti-clockwise and lift to reveal the water tank.
Put tap water into the tank and flush through a couple of litres through the unit, which will come out
the rear drain cap and the rest you can dispense from the taps.
Now screw back on the rear drain cap.
Mix 30ML (1 & 1/2 caps) of Milton anti-bacterial cleaning solution (available from most
supermarkets) into 3 litres of hot water and pour this into the water tank until it is full. At this time
please also clean the sides of the water tank. Now let the cooler sit overnight with this cleaning
solution in it. Alternatively –Fill the tank with hot tap water and mix in two tablespoons of
baking/bi-carb soda, leave it overnight.
Next morning unscrew the rear drain cap and flush through at least 2 litres of tap water, dispensing
the rest of the water through the taps.
Screw the drain cap back on.
Put the water cooler back inside in the desired location and put a bottle back on the water cooler.
Very Important –Now dispense a cup of water from blue tap, before you turn power on.
Only then plug it back into the power and turn the rear power switch on.

the flow of refrigerant in your water cooler, which is normal.
Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may cause slight
popping and crackling noises, which is normal.

on top.
Taps may be loose. Tighten the leaking tap slightly by turning
clockwise or if this doesn’t work remove bottle, drain the
water, unscrew the tap anticlockwise fully. Examine the inside
of the tap to see if it is clear of blockage and then put it back on
screwing it clockwise. If you need a new tap please contact us
