USER LICENSE
FOR ONE SODASTREAM ®/MD CYLINDER NOT FOR SALE PROPERTY OF SODA-CLUB (CO2) ATLANTIC GMBH (LLC) OR ITS AFFILIATES PROVIDED UNDER LICENSE

This is a legally binding document between Soda-Club (CO2) Atlantic GmbH (LLC) or its affiliates (“SodaStream”) and the consumer regarding the right to use a SodaStream CO2 Cylinder (the “Cylinder”).
To protect users’ safety and health, various directives and regulations govern and regulate the use, refilling, maintenance, retesting and repair of the Cylinder. SodaStream possesses the legally required knowledge and expertise to be responsible for strict legal compliance. This can only be guaranteed if the Cylinder is maintained, examined, retested and refilled by it. Thus, the Cylinder remains the property of SodaStream and is provided under License.

1. When empty, please return the Cylinder to either SodaStream or an authorized SodaStream distributor in exchange for a full Cylinder, for the price of the gas refill only. This License will continue to bind the use of each subsequent Cylinder.
2. Refilling an empty Cylinder by third parties could be risky. Unauthorized refilling may violate the law and infringes SodaStream’s rights. SodaStream only warrants the safety  of Cylinders refilled by it, bearing a Soda-Club/SodaStream tamper proof valve seal.
3. If you return the Cylinder to SodaStream or an authorized SodaStream distributor, without exchanging it for a full one, you will be entitled to a return fee of 2 USD or local equivalent.
4. The Cylinder, together with this User License, may be transferred to a third party provided the third party agrees to be bound by the conditions and ownership rights
   expressed herein. Possession of this User License proves the right of its holder to use one Cylinder under the terms herein.

The laws of Switzerland govern this License.
For questions, please contact SodaStream International BV, Dongenseweg 200, 5047 SH Tilburg, The Netherlands.

OVERVIEW

SYSTEM

1. 60 L SodaStream®/MD CO2 Cylinder (under license) makes up to 60 L of sparkling water depending on the level of carbonation and type of Sparkling Water Maker.

SET UP

INSTALLING THE CO2 CYLINDER

1. Place the SodaStream ®/MD 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 Plastic Carbonating Bottle is installed in the Sparkling Water Maker. This can cause the Plastic 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.

3. 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 Plastic Carbonating Bottle to burst and result in personal injury or property damage.
   

4. Reinstall the back cover. Now you are ready to create the bubbles.

CREATE THE BUBBLES

1. Fill the Plastic 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, press the tilt lever and screw the Carbonating Bottle into the Sparkling Water Maker. 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.

3. To carbonate, press the carbonating button in short 1 second presses; 3 presses for standard carbonation and 5 presses for strong carbonation.

4. When the desired level of carbonation is achieved, press on the tilt lever. This will release the pressure in the Plastic Carbonating
   Bottle. Unscrew the Carbonating Bottle to remove it from the Sparkling Water Maker.
   WARNING! Do not remove Plastic Carbonating Bottle until after hearing the sound of excess CO2 being released. Attempting to remove the Plastic Carbonating Bottle while it is still pressurized can cause uncontrolled ejection of the Plastic Carbonating Bottle and may result in serious injury.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Any and all claims, complaints, demands for judgment or legal actions brought hereunder relating in any way to your Sparkling Water Maker, Plastic Carbonating Bottle or CO2 Cylinder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the local Country in which the SodaStream Sparkling Water Maker was purchased.
TERMS AND CONDITIONS [for US only]:
Any and all claims, complaints, demands for judgment or legal actions brought hereunder relating in any way to your Sparkling Water Maker, Plastic Carbonating Bottle or CO2 Cylinder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the local laws of the State in which the SodaStream Sparkling Water Maker was purchased and will be subject to binding arbitration as set out under the heading “Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration” [The following paragraph for US only] DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to any SodaStream product including, but not limited to, claims of personal injury and/or property damage, shall be submitted to arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance to its then existing Consumer Arbitration Rules. The AAA Rules are available
online at HYPERLINK “http://www.adr.org/“www.adr.org, or by calling the AAA at 800.778.7879.
The Federal Arbitration Act (Title 9 of the U.S. Code) shall govern the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings relating to this arbitration.
Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. It uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. By agreeing to arbitration, the parties understand and agree that they
are waiving their rights to maintain other available resolution processes, such as a court action or administrative proceeding, to settle their disputes.
Any claim shall be brought only in the party’s individual capacity, and shall not in any case be brought by the party as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.
A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to SodaStream should be addressed to SodaStream’s Corporate Office set out on www.sodastream.com (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought. If an agreement to resolve the claim is not reached within 30 days after the Notice is received, any party may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by a party shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator.
There shall be one arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have the power to rule on his or her own jurisdiction, including, but not limited to, any objections with respect to the existence, scope, or validity of the arbitration provision or to the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim.
The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on all parties, and judgment upon the award may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction.

PRODUCT DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS
