Introduction
Congratulations on your new AQVIA®sparkling water maker. Now you can
make
delicious, refreshing carbonated water at home, and even flavour it with fruit or
natural concentrates available from our retailers. One AGA carbon dioxide cylinder
is enough for about 60 litres of carbonated water.
Before using the machine for the first time, you should read through the usage and
safety instructions provided in this manual.
Please note that the guarantee for your sparkling water maker is only valid on
condition that it has been treated with care and in compliance with these safety
instructions.
General safety instructions
– Never transport the sparkling water maker with the gas cylinder attached
to the machine. Always make sure that the gas cylinder has been fully detached
before transportation.
– Keep the sparkling water maker out of the reach of children.
– Never place the sparkling water maker close to a source of heat, such as a
hob or a radiator, and keep it out of direct sunlight.
– Only use 425 g gas cylinders and PET bottles that are approved for the
carbonator. Other bottles may seem to fit but could reduce the function, damage
the machine or cause a safety risk.
– Never press the gas button before attaching a water bottle.
– Never inject gas into an empty water bottle.
– Never fill a water bottle above the maximum volume mark.
– Never try to use your sparkling water maker when it is broken or damaged,
as doing so can be dangerous.
– The machine is not intended for commercial use.
– If your sparkling water maker breaks or malfunctions, do not try to repair or
open the machine yourself. Contact AGA’s customer service on:

Safety instructions for the gas cylinder
– Never transport the gas cylinder when attached to the sparkling water
maker. Always make sure that the gas cylinder has been fully detached
before transportation.
– Do not store the cylinder close to a source of heat, such as a hob or a
radiator, and keep it out of direct sunlight.
– Keep the cylinder out of the reach of children.
– The gas cylinder must only be used when at room temperature. After
transportation and frequent use, the cylinder can become cold and less
efficient. Avoid touching the cylinder if it is covered in ice.
– We recommend that you only use 425 g gas cylinders from AGA.
– Do not tamper with or otherwise alter the design or shape of the gas cylinder.
– If the gas cylinder breaks or becomes damaged, contact AGA’s customer
service on: Sweden +46 8 731 15 00, Denmark +45 328 366 00,
Norway +47 220 277 60, Finland +358 102 429 002.
Safety instructions for the water bottle
– Never fill water bottles with anything other than pure drinking water, and never
carbonate any other fluids than water. If other fluids are carbonated, there is a
serious danger that the fluid will leak into the machine, and that additives such
as sugar will cause the pressure relief valves to stick. If the relief valves stop
working, the machine will not be safe to use.
– Never fill the bottle above the maximum volume mark; if you do, water can
enter the machine and spurt out through the pressure relief valves.
– The water bottles can withstand water temperatures up to 40oC. The bottles
must therefore be washed only in warm water and never in a dishwasher.
– Never freeze the water bottles.
– Never use water bottles that have exceeded their use-by date, as this poses a
safety hazard. Use-by dates are printed on the bottles.
– Never use discoloured, deformed or cracked water bottles.
– To avoid the buildup of bacteria in the bottle, always make sure to rinse it
thoroughly before use.
– Never drink straight from the bottle.
– Only use AQVIA® water bottles.

Using the sparkling water maker
Your new sparkling water maker enables you to carbonate your own water, which
you can then flavour with concentrates from AQVIA®. To carbonate your own water,
you need the AGA 425 g carbon dioxide gas cylinder. When the cylinder is empty, a
replacement can be bought from the store where you made your original purchase
and the old bottle returned for deposit.
Inserting the gas cylinder
Remove the seal and the protective cap from the cylinder. Keep the cap in a safe place
as it will be needed when you replace the cylinder when empty.
Place the carbonator
on a flat surface and remove the back cover of the machine: hold in the catches on
the side and angle the cover backwards and then lift it upwards.
Tilt the sparkling water maker forwards and insert the gas cylinder through the
opening in the bottom of the machine so that the cylinder is standing on the work
surface. Gently tilt the sparkling water maker back so that the upper part of the
machine rests against the threaded neck of the cylinder.
Screw the cylinder into the machine as far as
it will go (see illustration), at which point the
sparkling water maker will have returned to
its original resting position. Make sure that the
cylinder is rmly in place.
Now replace the back cover by inserting the
bottom lip into the hole in the base and then
angling the cover forward carefully until you
hear a click from the catches.

Removing the gas cylinder
Place the carbonator on a flat surface and remove the back cover of the machine:
hold in the catches on the side and angle the cover backwards and then lift it
upwards. Unscrew the cylinder, at which point the sparkling water maker will tip
forwards slightly. Tilt the sparkling water maker a little further forwards and lift out
the cylinder.
Filling the water bottle
Clean the bottle before use. Do not use water
hotter than 40oC. Fill the bottle with cold water
up to the maximum volume mark. If the bottle
is overfilled, water can enter the machine
and leak out. For best results, use cold water;
the colder the water, the greater the volume
of gas that can be dissolved. It is therefore a
good idea to store an extra bottle of water in
the fridge. Make sure, however, not to keep
the water for too long in the bottle as it might
become stale.
Important! Never carbonate anything other than pure drinking water, as sugar
or other additives might cause the pressure relief valves to stick, rendering the
machine unsafe to use.

Attaching the water bottle
Remove the lid from the water bottle.
Position
the bottle so that the gas tube protrudes into
the water and then push the bottle up as far
as it will go. Turn the bottle as shown in the
illustration until you feel it engage. Make sure
that the water bottle is firmly in place before
use.
Carbonating water
Important! Never carbonate anything other than pure drinking water, as sugar
or other additives might cause the pressure relief valves to stick, rendering the
machine unsafe to use.
The degree of carbonation is a matter of
personal taste, so for the first few times you
use the machine, you will have to experiment
until you find the degree of carbonation that
is right for you.
To carbonate the water, press the button and
keep it pressed for 3-4 seconds or until you
hear a hiss as the pressure relief valve opens.
Depending on the water temperature, this will
give you a normal degree of carbonation.
You can add more gas as desired by pressing
the button again briefly once or twice.
Release the button and wait until you hear
another hiss as any excess pressure is
discharged and the water bottle is vented.
Unscrew the water bottle and enjoy your carbonated water. Store the water in a
cool place with the lid tightly screwed on to prevent the water going flat.

Removing the water bottle
Grasp the water bottle and turn it as shown
until you feel it disengage. The bottle has a
bayonet fitting and should click slightly as it
does so.
Flavour your carbonated water
Flavour your carbonated water with fruit or AQVIA®essences, ciders or sodas.
Please carefully read the instructions on the bottles and pour the right amount of
essence in a glass or a pitcher, and then add the carbonated water.
Emptying the spill tray
Wipe out the drip tray as required. Check that
there is no water under the machine. If the
PET bottle is filled above the max mark, the
surplus water may run down the front of the
machine and into the drip tray.
Maintenance and cleaning
– To clean your sparkling water maker , wipe it with a damp cloth. A mild
cleaning agent may also be used.
– Clean water bottles in warm water with a mild detergent and rinse well.
Store empty bottles with their lids off.
– Never wash water bottles in a dishwasher. Water bottles can only withstand
a maximum water temperature of 40oC.
– Never use solvents or powerful cleaning agents.
