3. Basic Installation (See also Installation Guide p13)
3.1 UNPACKING INSTRUCTIONS
•The chiller must be handled only in a vertical position. Transporting the appliance in a horizontal position can cause severe damage
to the refrigerator.
•Remove the exterior and interior packing. Packing materials (especially any plastic bags) should be stored out of the reach
of children, as a potential source of danger. When disposing packaging parts, please follow current regulations on the matter,
separating carton from plastic parts.
•Always check that the equipment that is delivered corresponds to the model indicated in the accompanying document.
•The equipment is shipped in a cardboard box. Once the packaging has been removed, check the equipment has not been damaged
in transit; if damage is found, notify the carrier.
3.2 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
When installing the machine, always observe the local regulations and standards. The appliance is supplied with a moulded power
cord. A suitable mains power supply socket should be available within easy access of the appliance so that it can be disconnected
easily after install.
3.3 PLUMBING INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
• Ensure that the equipment is installed according to local plumbing & water regulations.
• Fit a stop valve on a cold water line and attach a 3/8” BSP male tting, (E.g. 3/4” x 1/2” 311 or washing machine type stop valve).
• Connect water supply lines following the installation drawings. As per installation guide (starting page 14)
• In case lter systems are used verify that they satisfy the requirements of the legislation in force.
• If the lter is new, turn on water and ush at least 10 liters (2.5 gallon) through the lter before to connect it to the cooler; if the
lter is a used one, connect water inlet to the chiller.
• To ensure that the maximum value of pressure of 3 Bar is not exceeded the chiller integrates a pressure reducer.
• Turn on the water to ush any impurities, dust etc from the inlet hose and water pipe. Allow several litres through. Especially for
new installations.

3.5 BACKFLOW PREVENTION
This equipment must be installed with adequate backow protection to comply with all applicable federal, state and local codes.
3.6 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION
• The equipment is not suitable for external use.
• The equipment must be placed so it is protected from rain and water splashes, and in a location with the temperature appropriate
to its climate class (stated in specication); otherwise warranty rights are forfeited and malfunctions may occur.
3.7 POSITIONING
•The equipment must be placed on a surface capable of bearing the weight of the dispenser complete with water. Install the
equipment following the schematic described in this user guide.
• The chosen position must in any case allow satisfactory ventilation; in particular, there must be a gap of at least 10 cm (3.9 in)
around the back and top for ventilation.
• The equipment must not be placed close to direct or indirect heat sources (ovens, stoves, radiators, etc.). The electrical
connection and water supply points must be close to the equipment and located in such a way the power cable and water hose do
not form an obstruction.
• The appliance must not be installed where water jets can be generated. Do not spray water on the device; this could cause
electric shock or res.
3.4 CO2 INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
Connect CO2 using the appropriate polyethylene tube.
CO2.
• Only use super-dry food grade CO2 should be used. Before connecting the pressure reducer to the gas cylinder, always
vent any dirt from the valve and close the cylinder valve after few seconds.
GAS CYLINDER LOCATION
• To prevent the risk of injury or damage, the CO2 cylinder must always be kept in a vertical position against a wall, held in
place by a chain and xed to a bracket. Do not expose the bottle to heat sources or very low temperatures.
PRESSURE REDUCERs
• There are different type of CO2 cylinder available. Always use a pressure reducer suitable for the type of valve on the cylinder.
• If you use CO2, especially in a small area, ventilate the contaminated area at once.
• Please use Dual gauge CO2 regulator 1400195
• Check for leaks using a solution of soapy water.

CARBONATION PUMP
The device is equipped with a carbonation pump required for the addition of Carbon Dioxide in the water. After about 3.5 minutes
of continuous operation the pump stops carbonation. Stops and starts dictated by the carbonation level probes can be a
symptom of a leak in the water feed. To reset this simply disconnect and then reconnect the power to the equipment.
THERMOSTAT SETTING
The temperature of the dispensed beverages can be adjusted using the thermostat on the back of the chiller.
If the knob is turned in a clockwise direction the water will be cooler, if turned in the opposite direction water will be less cool. If the
thermostat knob is turned completely anticlockwise (to “0” or “STOP” position), the compressor turns off.
4. OPERATING
4.1 BEFORE USING CHILLER
•Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours. This will reduce the possibility
of a malfunction.
•Check that all installation procedures have been carried out.
•Ensure water inlet is open.
•Before supplying power to the unit check water and Carbon Dioxide lines do not leak.
•Plug the chiller into a suitable socket switch ON/OFF switch on the rear of the chiller to ON position.
•The “Power ON Status” light will light-up.
•When the unit is on, the carbonation pump starts to ll. The carbonation device stops when it reaches the maximum level.
•Once water and CO2 are connected, open the vent on top of the Chiller by pulling the ring. This operation allows the escape of any
air bubbles present inside, which would affect the carbonation adversely.
•On the pressure reducer knob, adjust CO2 pressure to a value between 50 and 65 PSI (350 and 450 kPa) (3.5 - 4.5 bar)
This value depends on the temperature of the water and on the ambient temperature. The temperatures correspond to the CO2
pressure.
•To enable lling the lines, open the two lines in the following order: cold sparkling water and cold natural water, until the ows appear
regular and without the presence of air, in each case deliver and discharge at least 5 liters of water from each line.
•At this point you can dispense water.

4.3 MAINTENANCE
Maintenance procedures (described below) are required for optimum equipment operation.
4.3.1 DAILY MAINTENANCE
1. Water faucet. Clean the faucet nozzle and remove any residue using warm water; do not use solvents or abrasive
detergents. If required, remove all the limestone with a food descaling solution.
2. Drip tray. Clean the tray and remove any residue using warm water.
3. CO2 pressure. Review pressure CO2 gauges for proper settings.
4. Power cord. Check condition of the power cord. Replace if necessary.
4.3.2 LIMESCALE
Descaling of the machine should ideally be carried out by qualied service personnel.
4.3.3 CHECK FOR CO2 PRESSURE:
Review pressure CO2 gauges for proper settings. 50 - 65 psi (350 - 450 Kpi) (3-4.5 bar)
Replacing a carbon dioxide (CO2) cylinder.
the cyclinder must be replaced when the needle of the reducer high pressure gauge is in the red segment.
1.Record the pressure values set on the pressure reducer, then fully close the bottle with the valve.
2.Remove the pressure reducer or disconnect the high pressure hose from the bottle if tted. Check the condition of the
gaskets between the reducer and the bottle, replace them if necessary.
3.Replace the CO2 cylinder by slowly opening the valve to the fully open position and check that the pressure values are as
originally set.
4.3.4 CLEANING THE CHILLER CONDENSER:
Check the chiller condenser at monthly intervals and in accordance to the environmental conditions (humidity and dust). If
dust or dirt occurs between the condenser blades: remove screws, plastic clips and the removable upper panel then clean the
condenser ns using a soft brush, a vacuum cleaner or a low-pressure compressed air. Remove any dust from the cooling
and electrical components.
• Accumulation of dust and grease over the condenser may cause overheating which could damage the compressor
beyond repair. The condenser must always be cleaned when necessary.
• Do not use wire brushes or compressed air jets as they can damage the condenser.
