Before using your Sunbeam Water Filter
and Chiller System.
• Carefully unpack the appliance and check that
all components are included.
• Wash the water tank and lid with warm soapy
water then rinse thoroughly and dry.
• Wipe the appliance over with a clean cloth or
paper towel.
• Plug the appliance into the electrical outlet and
turn the power on.
• The appliance has been designed to be used
continuously.
Preparing to flush the filter.
• Remove the water tank from the base and fill
with hot tap water. Place the tank back on the
base and press down firmly to ensure correct
sealing of the water tank to the unit.
• Place a large container or jug (at least 3.5
litres) under the spout.
Flushing the filter.
• The first jug of filtered water may contain some
black dust released from the carbon filter.
Although this is not harmful, we recommend
that you flush the filter and discard the first
batch of filtered water. Press and hold the
continuous flow button until the entire
contents of the water tank has been filtered
and dispensed into the container placed
under the spout. It is normal for a small
amount of unfiltered water to remain in the
bottom of the water tank.
• The flushing procedure should be repeated
with cold tap water twice to ensure there is no
taste left from the filter.
Note: During the flushing process, the
appliance may splutter as the air inside the
filter is replaced by water. You will notice a
change in the filtering noise when the
water tank is almost empty.
• Do not fill the water tank above the MAX
fill line.
• When flushing the filter for the first time,
while pressing the pour button, no water
will be dispensed until the tank is almost
empty as the water will be filling the
internal cooling reservoir.
• After flushing the filter, the water will need
to chill. Leave the appliance plugged in
and wait for the ready light to signal that
the appliance is able to dispense chilled
water. On first use the appliance should be
plugged in and left overnight to chill.
• The light may flicker on and off as chilled
water is dispensed and if ambient
temperature increases.
Filtering room temperature water.
• Push the Room temperature/Filtered button.
For manual dispense, place a glass or jug of
water under the spout and push it against the
manual water dispenser button. To filter the
entire contents of the water tank, place a large
container or jug (at least 3.5 litres) under the
spout. Press the continuous flow button.
