These particles are harmless and are
washed off during the preparation
process.
2. Soak the cartridge in a bowl of water
for 5-10 minutes to remove all air
bubbles.
3. Flush for 1 minute under a running tap.
4. The filter cartridge is now ready for use.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
• Remove the lid and take out the upper
water tank.
• Fit the water filter cartridge into the
underside of the upper tank, rotating
clockwise to lock into place. Ensure it
is firmly secured.
• Re-insert the upper tank and pour in water until both
the tanks are full. Water will flow through the filter at a
set rate and may take some time due to the action of the
filter cartridge.
• During normal use top up the tanks regularly.
Note:
If the unit has been drained it is recommended to
hold the water dispenser lever open with a glass while
filling the tanks to stop air becoming trapped inside the
unit. Once water flows through the tap, the dispensing
lever can be released.
• Fit the lid, plug the unit into the electrical mains supply
and switch on. The power/chilling light will illuminate
blue and the motor will begin to chill the water.
• Dispense 2 litres of water from the unit to remove any
unfiltered water and top up.
• When the light turns pale blue/white, the water
will be cooled to approximately 10º C less than the
ambient temperature. The motor switches on and off
automatically to keep the water constantly fresh.
• Place a glass under the dispenser and push the lever
back to dispense water.
• Top up the upper tank as required.
Note:
It is possible to use the unit without power; in this
case the water will be correctly filtered but will not be
cooled.
REPLACING THE AQUA OPTIMA FILTER CARTRIDGE
Note:
This water chiller is only intended for use with Aqua
Optima water filters.
• Drain the water from the tanks and remove the lid.
• Take out the upper water tank and remove the filter
cartridge by rotating it anti-clockwise.
• Insert the new filter cartridge as described previously
and refit the upper tank and lid.
FILTER LIFE INDICATOR
The electronic filter cartridge life indicator will remind you
when to change the filter cartridge and ensure optimum
performance.
AQUA OPTIMA 30-DAY FILTER CARTRIDGE
To ensure the best performance, the filter cartridge should
be changed after 100 litres, which is approximately 30 days
of typical use.
After you have fitted the filter cartridge, press and hold the
RESET button. The display will flash 30 and 60 alternately.
Keep pressing until the display shows a steady 30. This
should take approximately 4-8 seconds. When it shows a
steady 30, you can then release the button.
The display will show 30 and the counter will start. It will
count down in days from 30 to 0.
Replace the cartridge when the display reaches 00 and
begins to flash continuously.
Every time you replace the cartridge, reset the indicator
again following the above instructions. If you accidentally
set the wrong date for your filter, then simply start the
procedure again.
AQUA OPTIMA 60-DAY FILTER CARTRIDGE
To ensure the best performance, the filter cartridge should
be changed after 200 litres, which is approximately 60
days of typical use.
After you have fitted the filter cartridge, press and hold the
RESET button. The display will flash 30 and 60 alternately.
After 4-8 seconds, it will show 30. Keep pressing until the
display shows a steady 60. This should take approximately
9-12 seconds. When it shows a steady 60, you can then
release the button.
The display will show 60 and the counter will start. It will
count down in days from 60 to 0.
Replace the cartridge when the display reaches 00 and
begins to flash continuously.
Every time you replace the cartridge, reset the indicator
again following the above instructions. If you accidentally
set the wrong date for your filter, then simply start the
procedure again.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
• Water is a foodstuff. We recommend using the filtered
water within 2 days. If the appliance is not used for more
than 48 hours fill it twice with cold water and empty the
water before continuing to use it normally.
• Should the appliance not be used for an extended
period of time (for example a holiday) we recommend
that the filter is removed and placed in a clean plastic
bag and stored in the fridge. This will help to maintain
the filter when not in use. Before using the filter after
storage, follow the preparation and fitting instructions
for use as normal.
CLEANING
ATTENTION:
NEVER PLACE THE APPLIANCE BODY, PLUG
OR POWER CORD IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUIDS; ALWAYS
WIPE CLEAN WITH A DAMP CLOTH.
• Wash, rinse and dry the upper tank and the lid regularly,
at least when the filter cartridge is replaced.
• Do not use any washing-up liquid or anything that may
taint the water. Don’t use harsh or abrasive cleaning
agents or solvents.
TO DRAIN THE WATER CHILLER COMPLETELY
BEFORE STORING
Remove plug from the electrical wall socket and empty
both tanks.
In the middle of the cable tidy, underneath the appliance,
is a drainage plug which must be unscrewed to remove
any residual water from the internal tank.
