2.2
- The following instructions are critical if there is insufficient cupboard air
circulation.
If the air flow, using the silicon door buffers, is insufficient, it will be necessary to fit a standard ChillTap vent kit, which ensures heat
dissipation through natural convection via installed vents.
For high use applications, where the cupboard space temperature is near 35°C, or higher, the inlet vent (See Item B below) and
silicon buffers, need to be fitted.
If the airflow is still insufficient to maintain normal operating temperatures then the inlet vent and door outlet vent (See item D
below) will need to be fitted.
Note: The vent kit has to be installed in a way that allows air to be drawn in from the bottom of the cupboard and expelled
through the top of the cupboard. Therefore placement of the outlet vent should be towards the top of the door or on the side of the
cupboard.

Section 5
5.1 - Test and Commission:
Do NOT turn power or water on to the unit. The carbonator must be purged
first with the CO2 gas. Failure to do so will result in poor tasting water. Turn the
sparkling water lever on (white ringed lever) The CO2 will start to run out of the
tap. Gas will purge or escape from the tap at this point. Let it run for approximately
5 seconds to completely fill the tank. Close the sparkling lever by rotating back to
upright.
Note: Should no CO2 gas be expelled, check if regulator valve is open.
FIG.1
Turn on the still water lever (blue ringed lever) then turn on the water supply to the
unit. First air, then water will flow from the tap. Allow the water to continue to flow
for about 7.5 litres, which is required to activate the filter. Once this has been done
turn off the still water lever.
Connect the unit to the mains power supply and turn ON. Confirm the ON/OFF
switch at the side of the undersink unit is on.
The compressor and fan will start, and the water pump will operate for
approximately 20 seconds to fill the carbonator vessel.
After approximately 5 minutes, the compressor and fan will stop as the chiller has
reached its normal operating temperature.
To achieve an optimal level of carbonation, it is beneficial to purge the carbonation
vessel again by isolating the water and electrical supply, and opening the sparkling
lever on the tap until gas is expelled for approximately 5 seconds. Close the tap
and turn on water and power. Wait 20 seconds and the sparkling water should be
ready for use.
ROTATE
FIG.2
Important: Optimal carbonation levels occur at low water temperatures.
Excessive flow rates of carbonated water will result in poor drink quality and
malfunction of system. It is recommended that the flow rate for carbonated water
should be approximately 1.2-1.6 litres/minute.
The lever on the right (Blue rings) is used for chilled still filtered water and the lever
on the left (White rings) is used for chilled sparkling filtered water.
Chilled water is obtained by rotating the lever on the right, to a horizontal position.
The water is chilled by a refrigeration unit fitted within the cabinet stand, under the
basin.
With the carafe tap, you can obtain chilled water within the rated capacity, for as
long as you leave the lever in the open (horizontal) position. When finished, return
the lever to the OFF (upright) position.
Sparkling water is obtained in the same way as the chilled water, by rotating the
lever on the left hand side of the carafe tap.

FIG.3
The carbonation valve has an adjustable fl ow rate. The optimum setting for the valve
is 1.6 litres per minute. Using a 6mm Allen key or a large fl at blade screw driver, you
can adjust the fl ow on the valve.
1. After product commissioning and CO2 purge, you are now ready to adjust carbonator water fl ow rate.
2. To adjust the fl ow rate, rotate the adjustment screw anti-clockwise to increase the fl ow and clockwise to decrease the fl ow, see FIG.3. (Use 1/4 or 1/2 turn increments)
3. To measure the fl ow rate you have set, use a measuring cup or jug and run the spar-
kling water for 15 seconds. Multiply the amount of water dispensed in that 15 seconds
by 4 to get your fl ow rate in litres per minute. 1.6 litres per minute is the optimum fl ow
rate.
Warning - T ake care NOT to use excessive force
during adjustment of the carbonation valve.
