OVERVIEW

SET UP

INSTALLING THE CO2 CYLINDER

Place the Sparkling Water Maker on a flat sturdy surface and remove the back cover.
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. This may result in an uncontrolled flow of CO2 gas, causing the Carbonating Bottle to burst and result in personal injury or property damage.
Reinstall the back cover. Now you are ready to create the bubbles.

SODASTREAM®/MD CO2 SCREW SYSTEM CYLINDER

CREATE THE BUBBLES

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 carbonationnand serious injury. Never carbonate after flavoring has been added.
To insert the Carbonating Bottle, make sure that the Carbonating Bottle rest 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.
. 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 pressurized can cause uncontrolled ejection of the Carbonating Bottle and may result in serious injury
