Unboxing
We strongly recommend keeping the original packaging of your
unit for as long as your warranty lasts. It can be used if you ever
re-locate the pool and offers you peace of mind for transport.
To unpack, unscrew the bolts from the wooden crate starting
from the top panel, then the sides. First thing to note is to make
sure nothing is missing.
Requirements of the room
Prior to using your Mipod, you must ensure that the area of
the room where the Mipod is installed should not be less than
6 Square Meters (65 Square Feet) for best results. The door
frames should be at least 810mm wide (32 inches) to allow the
Mipod to be easily carried inside.
Extreme Weather Exposure
For best results, the ambient room temperature recommended
for all models should be between 10-25ºC (50º-77ºF).
If using your MiPod in extreme cold temperatures, never allow
the water to freeze or serious damage could occur that is not
covered under warranty. If freezing conditions are expected in
the room where the MiPod is installed, empty the water, add
anti-freeze to the water or turn on the heating mode if your
model has that function to keep water above freezing.
On very hot climates over 45ºC, it may not be possible to
run the system at full power due to the excessive heat. If the
temperature inside the unit exceeds 70ºC, the over heat safety
circuit will operate and shut the machine down.
Prepare for set up
Positioning
Your MiPod pool must be placed on a uniformly flat and level surface.
Be sure to place the pool on an area that can support the weight of
the bath when full (water is very heavy, 1KG per Litre). It is always
recommended that you seek the advice of a qualified engineer or
the local council if unsure. If eventual servicing is required for any
particular reasons, please also make sure that you have easy access
to all side vents and panels. We suggest that you closely consider the
required location for your ice bath prior to filling your bath. Please
account for the attachment point to drain the surplus water. We also
recommend to have a floor drain nearby for easy drainage of your
pool.
Airflow
For models with internal chillers, please ensure your MiPod is
placed at a minimum distance of 300mm on all sides away from any
obstacle, wall or structure to allow proper airflow. Please also make
sure it is kept away from heat sources of any description.
You must provide appropriate ventilation to keep the machine within
a safe operating temperature. A good ventilated area is required so
your chiller can disperse the heat effectively into the air and it should
not be placed in a confined space otherwise it will reach unsafe
temperatures that will cause the inbuilt safety system to operate and
shut down the unit.
Water Condensation
Please note that your unit is a very powerful chiller and
condensation will occur inside of your machine and you may notice
a small amount of water at the base. Condensation is water from
the air being condensed as ice or water on the very cold surfaces of
the iCool’s machinery. This is more evident in high humidity where
the air contains a lot of water.

To make setup as smooth as possible, please follow
carefully the instructions outlined below. Do not start
your MiPod until you have read this entire owner’s
manual. Improper installation or operation may result
in equipment damage not covered by warranty.

For models with an internal built-in chiller, the first step is to connect the MiPod to the power and to
the screen. You must absolutely make sure that you do not connect your MiPod machine to the wrong
voltage or this will cause serious damage not covered under warranty.

1. Connect MAIN POWER
Plug the power cable to the Main Power socket and
to a 3-pin earthed wall socket rated at least 13 Amps at 220
volts (and 26 Amps at 110 volts if your machine is 110V). Please
avoid the use of long extension cords as they may result in
voltage drops that may trigger the inbuilt safety system.
MiPods must be connected to the voltage marked on the
machine, /!\ they are NOT multi-voltage and using a
different voltage may cause severe damage. The power
input socket on the side of your MiPod must be connected to
standard AC power capable of providing at least 13 Amps in
countries with a 220v supply, and 26 Amps in countries with a
110v supply. The system requires much less power than this for
normal operation, however they need more power for up to a
minute each time they start up and this must be allowed for. A
3 pin grounded power outlet is absolutely mandatory for user
safety. Never use a 2 pin plug it could be dangerous. Your MiPod
is fitted with an electrical safety device to protect users and All
AC power connections used must have an earth connection
that complies with your local electrical safety regulations.
2. Connect DATA CABLE
Plug the blue DATA cable to the
Ethernet Port on the machine and
to the RJ45 socket on the back of
your screen. Please note, a power
cable is not required for the screen.
The screen will receive its power
from the blue DATA cable (supplied).
Mount the screen on a wall or anywhere you want using the
wall mount bracket kit (included). Please note the DATA cable
supplied is 5m long.
3. Turn on SWITCH
Turn the Main Power Switch ON and check that the
screen turns on correctly. If that is the case, a WELCOME PAGE
will appear on the touch screen.
RJ45 OTG DC
Blue DATA cable Power cable
SCREEN NOT CONNECTING
If the screen does not light up when turning ON the
switch of the MiPod, please make sure that:
1The Main power cable is correctly connected to the
power socket on the unit and to the wall and that no
extension cables are being used.
2The Safety Switch is in the ON or UP position.
Please note that if your MiPod ever detects a potential
electrical safety risk, this switch will instantly turn off all
electric power to your MiPod. Always have an electrician
inspect your MiPod for safety should this ever happen
and before turning it back on.
3The Data cable is correctly connected to the
Ethernet socket on the unit and on the screen.
Please note: when contacting iCool Support, please
send pictures and a short video of the screen and pool
set up. This will help engineers to better determine the
problem and give you the best advice.
This is how you final set up should look:

For models with an external refrigeration unit, installation is recommended to be completed by a
certified plumber. PVC plumbing pipes (not supplied) will need to be connected between the MiPod
and the external chiller. The rest of the operation must be followed as per the chillers Owner’s Manual
purchased (different to this manual).
MiPod Remote
Compact chiller
With all MiPod Remotes, the davey water circulation pump is
installed inside your MiPod pool - an electrician will need to
wire the circulation pump to your chiller (this is not pre-fitted
as it must be custom made once on site). Your compact will
come with PVC barrel unions suited for 1 inch PVC pipes. PVC
pipes & MiPod water outlets are not included. Installation
is recommended to be completed by a certified plumber.
Insulation of the pipes is a must for the full length of the two
water pipes, otherwise a lot of cold energy will be lost.
Remote Screen (Optional)
With MiPod Remote versions, a Remote touch screen is
usually recommended (optional) so you can control your
MiPod temperature from the same area of your pool.
Please follow instructions from Page 15 of the Compact
Range Owner’s Manual (different to this manual).

Davey Cartridge Filters
(optional)
An external filter can be purchased however it
must be ordered at the same time and cannot
be retrofitted on existing MiPods. 2x Water
outlets are fitted to the shell of your MiPod and
installation must be done with PVC pipes. Make
sure to talk to an iCool representative to order
this at the same time you order your MiPod pool.
If using the optional iCool Davey Cartridge Filter, additional
water outlets are manufactured on the shell of your MiPod
when ordered at the same time. This must be ordered in
advance and cannot be retro-fitted.
The connecting PVC pipes between the filter and the
MiPod are not included. Installation is recommended to be
completed by a certified plumber. Insulation of the pipes is a
must for the full length of the two water pipes, otherwise a lot
of cold energy will be lost.

MiPod Ice
For models with no chiller at all, there is no installation required.
Just fill your pool with water and add ice. That’s it!

Fill pool with water and allow enough space to handle water displacement and prevent overflow when
users enter the pool. This is particularly important if you intend to have 2 or 3 people at the same time.
Make sure the bath is filled with enough water as recommended on the right.
Fill with water
Fill with a hose
A permanent water connection is not
required. Simply fill with a hose over
the Mipod to at least cover the internal
top water outlet. If this is not followed,
the machine will draw air and cause the
safety system to shut the system down.
To empty water from MiPod, simply
connect a 12mm hose to the drain valve
and OPEN valve to let water go.
Drain Valve
Make sure the drain valve is in the
CLOSED position when filling the bath
so the water stays inside the MiPod.
