5. END-USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS:
5.1 Proper Care
o The faucet nozzles should be wiped on a daily basis with clean cotton rug or non
abrasive sponge and warm or hot water.
o The spillage collection tray (drip tray) should be emptied and washed with hot
water on a daily basis.
o The external stainless steel surface of the cabinet needs to be cleaned and
polished once every month with regular non-abrasive cleaning solution or metal
cleaner.
o Use metal polish to restore its shiny appearance or to remove any discoloration or
stain on its surface.
o Use only a soft and all cotton cloth for cleaning and polishing the stainless steel
surface of the unit.
o Unplug only the electric power connection during maintenance and servicing or in
case of problem or malfunction of the unit.
o When the CO2 regulator gas quantity gauge needle moves to the Red section of
the gage, it is necessary to replace the canister immediately or have it refilled to
avoid disruption of the sparkling water supply.
o In order to obtain the maximum efficiency of the refrigeration system, periodically
clean the condenser grill with a soft brush and vacuum cleaner.
o Replace the air filter every 12 months or when there is a noticeable reduction in
cold water production.
o Check the heat exchange water tub monthly. Add distilled or de-ionized water until
the water level is over the coils. DO NOT fill to the very top of the tub.
5.2 Advice for Proper Use
o In public bars and restaurants, “Purified Water” must be clearly indicated on the
unit or on the side of it. Signs must be posted on the unit saying: “Potable, purified
water” and the purified water must be served in appropriate bottles with correct
labels and specifications.
o Purified water should be listed as such in the price list and on receipts and invoices
so that it is not confused with regular water.
o When not using the machine for a long period of time, it should be properly stored
away to avoid bacterial contamination.
o On a daily basis, always run at least three liters of water prior to consumption.
o Never add brine water to the water chiller bucket.
o Do not expose the CO2 tank to the sun, any sources of heat, or to temperatures
below 32° F (0°C).
o Always Keep the CO2 tank in a vertical position and secure it with a small chain or
strap.
o For correct carbonated water, make sure that the CO2 tank pressure, indicated by
the regulator pressure-gauge, is compressed between 60 and 65 psi.
o Use only CO2 (UN1013) super dry for carbonating drinking water.
