1. Plan the installation. In particular, the Brita filter (A) supplied must be used regardless
of mains or tank fill.
2. It must be located between the mains water/Flojet pump outlet and the rear machine
water inlet. If your machine has a metal base cabinet, provision is built in for mounting
the filter via 2 screws prefitted.
For example, the following shows a Brita filter unit (B) installed between the Flojet out-
let (C) and coffee machine inlet (A):
If your machine is not fitted with a base cabinet, the filter must be located in a suitable
place such as below the counter or a nearby cupboard. It can be mounted in any orienta-
tion.

3. The filter must be flushed before use. This is achieved using the small grey rubber
discharge hose inside the filter head unit (C). Remove this from its storage location in-
side the head (B) before mounting. The filter head is removed from the filter body by
rotating the lock handle (E) observing the padlock symbols on the side. When the grey
tube is free, refit the filter head on the filter, paying attention to the 3 o rings on the fil-
ter body that must remain in place. Rotate the lock handle to the lock position.
4. Place machine and filter/mount bracket in their final positions. Secure the mounting
bracket with screws/bolts. Cut and push fit the supplied blue JG water line as required
from the mains water connection or Flojet water pump outlet.
5. Turn on the water supply or pump and check for leaks.
6. Flush/purge air from Brita filter. This is achieved by placing the grey rubber discharge
tube (C) into a jug/bucket and gently depressing the flush button (D) on the filter head
until the water flowing out is steady and clear.
7. Once the water circuit is complete and free from leaks and flushed, proceed with the se-
tup but at this point, do NOT supply electrical power the machine.

Initial Setup after installation
1. Ensure the electricity supply is OFF and the water supply is ON.
2. Machines are supplied with a Brita water filter, this must be fitted and flushed
before using the machine. Do not proceed further until this is carried out.
3. Open the main machine door with the silver key.
4. Open the external grey lid on the top right side of the machine. This lid will not open
without the main door open. It is used to fill the milk canister, this is labeled on its
front.
5. The chocolate canister is located on the hinged metal bracket inside the main door, it
should be clearly labeled
6. Fill both canisters; each compartment will take up to a bag of product. Do not
overfill. The lids will not close and the machine will not operate.
7. Close the machine door. Switch on the mains electricity supply. The front LCD will
power up while the machine runs a short diagnostic program. Water may flow from
the dispensing nozzles; this will run into the drip tray to be emptied after.
8. “Temperature” should appear on the LCD display for some minutes after which it will
show “Ready for use”
9. Open the transparent plastic door on the top left of the machine. Insert a pod then
press Mokaccino. Discard this first drink, it is only to prime the powder conveyers.
10. Congratulations, the machine is now ready for use.
11. Make a selection from short black, long black, latte, mokaccino, cappuccino, strong
hot chocolate, hot chocolate or hot water.
12. Wait for the display to show ‘Take your drink’ and then enjoy!

1. Push section 4 downward gently then firmly pull out the centre section 3.
2. Clean 2, 3 and 4 of powder residue using warm water and detergent. Do not clean
any parts in a dishwasher as this may cause damage.
It is important to clean the mixing bowl assembly thoroughly in order to
prevent bacteria build up.
Section 5 may be cleaned by rotating then pulling outward to remove. Dry then
reassemble in reverse order.
3. Continue with the machine door open. Place the yellow service key into the slot at the
top centre of the machine and turn the key 90 degrees clockwise. This will restore
power to the machine.
4. On the inside of the main door are 2 black buttons, the left button is the rinse button.
Ensure the display reads “Ready for use”.
5. Press the rinse button. This will rinse the mixing bowl, dispensing tubes and the filters
in the coffee brew unit. Repeat the process twice to ensure all parts have been flushed.
6. Remove the grey drip tray at the front of the machine. It separates into 2 sections for
cleaning by pressing the two release tabs. Do not wash in a dishwasher, this will
damage the tray.
7. Remove the large rear waste container from behind the drip tray. Empty and clean.
Replace ONLY when the display reads ‘Insert tray’ This is very important. If inserted
too soon, the machine will not register that it has been emptied and ask again!
8. Remove yellow service key and store inside the machine, the small storage drawer is
ideal. Close and lock the main door. Store your key safely.
9. The machine will now self test and heat. Wait for the LCD to show “Ready for use”

Problem Solving
LCD display shows “out of order” - Press any button on the front of the machine, after a short
delay, the lcd will list the machine error. If the error is not reflected on the list below, visit our
support website www.bluepod.com.au/support or call 1800 800 255.
“Waste container full” This is the most common issue and is NOT a malfunction.
Open the machine, insert the yellow key. When the display reads ‘Ready for use’, remove the
drip tray and waste container. Empty and clean. WAIT for LCD display to show ‘Insert tray’.
When this message displays, insert empty rear container and front drip tray. Remove yellow key,
close and lock the door. The machine is now reset.
Machine display reads "Water failure" - Ensure water supply to machine is on both locally
and to the building. If the machine is supplied from a water tank, ensure the pump is switched
on and the water tank is full of fresh clean drinking water.
Chocolate tastes weak - Chocolate powder canister empty. Replenish as necessary.
No Milk in drink - Milk powder canister empty. Replenish as necessary. Possible blockage in
mixing bowl. Check/clean as per the weekly instructions listed above.
Water leaking from the machine – Ensure both the drip tray and waste containers are fitted
correctly and are not cracked. Ensure the rear water fill hose is fully tightened by hand only. If
water still continues to leak then close the water supply to the machine and call Bluepod service.
Bad smell emanating from the machine - Open machine and clean mixing bowl and drip
tray/waste containers.
