and unpacking
The appliance is very heavy.
Take maximum care during handling
to avoid injury.
The appliance should always be
transported in an erect position.
Avoid at all costs leaning it on its front
side.
Since this is a large and heavy appliance, before
transporting the appliance, check the access to
the location where it will be installed (door size,
maneuvering space in stairwells, etc.).
The appliance is attached to the base of the packaging
(pallet) through four bolts which can be removed
using a 19 mm (3/4”) wrench.
It is recommended to use a manual transporting device
to move the appliance to the installation site, and only
at this point to remove the base of the packaging.
The appliance should always be transported in an
erect position.
If this is not possible, transport the appliance laying
on its rear side.
Once at the installation site, the appliance, which is
equipped with four wheels, can be taken o the pallet
and positioned in the installation area.
Operate as follows:
> Take o the four bolts securing [ 1 ] the appliance
to the pallet by means of a 19 mm (3/4”) wrench or
socket.
> Remove the fixing brackets [ 3 ] and [ 4 ] .
> To release the front fixing bracket [ 3 ] , loosen the
rear wheel adjusting bolt [ 2 ] by means of a 13 mm
(1/2”) wrench or socket. Avoid straining this bolt at its
stop points one way or the other so as to not damage

all 4 wheels are able to contact the floor for easiest
maneuvering.
> From the back of the unit and by means of a suitable,
heavy duty hand trolley, take o the appliance and
place it on the floor.
Be very careful to avoid any damage to floors. Delicate
floors should be protected with plywood, hard
cardboard or similar material panels.
3.2 Electrical and water connection
The Built-in filter cannot make it safe
to drink any water which is not already
suitable for human consumption.
The appliance should be connected only
to a potable water supply system.
Do not use extension cords or adapters.

connected to the water supply (if
applicable) and operational, in the event
that the water supply must be turned off,
