INSTALLING THE CO2 CYLINDER
1.
Place the Sparkling Water Maker on a flat sturdy surface and remove the back cover.
2.
Remove seal and cap from the SodaStream CO2 Cylinder. WARNING! Never insert or replace the
CO2 Cylinder while a Carbonating Bottle is installed in the Sparkling Water Maker. This can cause
the Carbonating Bottle to be ejected or burst. Tilt the Sparkling Water Maker forward and insert
the CO2 Cylinder in the back of the Sparkling Water Maker.
Gently raise the CO2 Cylinder and tighten by turning to the right until it is firmly held in place.
WARNING! Hand-tighten only. DO NOT use tools; this can damage the Sparkling Water Maker
or CO2 Cylinder, which may result in an uncontrolled flow of CO2 gas, causing the Carbonating
Bottle to burst.
3.
Reinstall the back cover. Now you are ready to create the bubbles.

CREATE THE BUBBLES
1.
Fill the Carbonating Bottle with cold water up to the fill line. WARNING! Do not carbonate
anything other than water. Other liquids can contaminate and clog internal parts, potentially
resulting in excessive pressure, bottle failure during carbonation and serious injury. Never
carbonate after flavouring has been added.
2.
To insert the Carbonating Bottle, make sure that the Carbonating Bottle holder is angled forward.
Please make sure you do not pull the carbonating tube. WARNING! Never use a Sparkling Water
Maker with a broken carbonating tube. This can cause excessive pressure, bottle failure and
serious injury. Insert the Carbonating Bottle neck into the Snap-Lock. Push the Carbonating Bottle
up and back. The Snap-Lock will hold the Carbonating Bottle.
Note: when inserted correctly, there is a small gap between the bottom of the Carbonating
Bottle and the base. Do not carbonate if the Carbonating Bottle is resting on the base, or water
will splash out.
3.
To carbonate, press the carbonating
button in short 1 second presses; 3 presses for standard
carbonation
and 5 presses
for high carbonation.
Note: You may see small pieces of ice appear in the water during carbonation of very cold water.
Any ice created will simply melt.
4.
When the desired level of carbonation is achieved, gently pull the Carbonating Bottle towards you
until it reaches its fully forward position. This will release the pressure in the Carbonating Bottle
and allow the Carbonating Bottle to be released from the Snap-Lock.
WARNING! Do not remove Carbonating Bottle until after hearing the sound of excess CO2 being
released. Never force the Carbonating Bottle out of the Snap-Lock. Always allow the Sparkling
Water Maker to release the Carbonating Bottle. If the Carbonating Bottle does not immediately
release from the Snap-Lock wait a few moments. If it still does not release, then push the
Carbonating Bottle back into the vertical position and gently pull it towards you again. Attempting
to remove the Carbonating Bottle while it is still pressurised can cause uncontrolled ejection of
the Carbonating Bottle and may result in serious injury.

sparkling flavoured beverage!

desired flavour by pouring it slowly and carefully down the inside wall of the Carbonating Bottle.
Close with the fizz-preserving cap and tighten, then mix with a gentle shake.
Enjoy!
ONLY CARBONATE WATER . NEVER CARBONATE AFTER FLAVOUR HAS BEEN ADDED.
WARNING! Other liquids can contaminate and clog internal parts, potentially resulting in excessive
pressure, bottle failure during carbonation and serious injury.
