# Warnings and Installation Checklist ### Warning **Warning** If the Benchy has just been moved do not turn on unless it has been standing for at least 24 hours. Failure to do so will void warranty. Stand the Benchy in an upright position for at least 24 hours before plugging inot the mains socket. **Warning** Ensure there is at least 30mm clearance on each *vented* side of the Benchy to allow adequate airflow. Not allowing adequate ventilation will void warranty, reduce performance and increase power consumption. **Warning** Perform a pressure/leak test prior to use **Warning** Do not exceed gas pressure or water pressure stated on the data plate **Warning** Only use cold to warm water to clean product lines. Do not use hot water to clean product lines ### Before Installation 1. Let the Benchy Sparkling sit for at least 24 hours after delivery or after sitting on its side before turning the unit on. 2. Ensure the under-counter cupboard or bench top can support the weight of the Benchy Sparkling when full of water. 3. Ensure there is adequate ventilation (at least 50mm on each vented side of the Benchy Sparkling) Do not exceed the pressures which are stated on the data plate. Do not set the reservoir temperature to below 2°C **Do not exceed the pressures which are stated on the data plate.** **Do not set the reservoir temperature to below 2°C** ### **Installation Checklist** * [ ] I have checked that the under-counter space or bench top can support the weight of the unit when full * [ ] I have ensured there is a minimum of 50mm clearance on each vented side of the unit * [ ] I have stood the unit upright for minimum 24 hours before switching on * [ ] I have ensured the mains water supply and CO2 gas supply remain off during assembly * [ ] I have ensured the mains water is off and the system is completely depressurised prior to removing any hosing from push in fittings * [ ] I have set the reservoir temperature to 2°C or greater * [ ] I have not exceeded the pressures which are stated on the data plate on the unit * [ ] I have read and followed the instruction manual in its entirety and will now conduct a leak test prior to leaving the unit unattended **IMPORTANT: In order for the Benchy Sparkling to function correctly and to ensure there are no leaks the mains water pressure must be regulated to no more than 80psi (70psi or less is recommended). If the mains water pressure is not regulated then the internal float valve can be damaged by high pressure.** The Benchy Sparkling is the easiest way to setup a sparkling water system. You can be enjoying chilled sparkling water in under 1 hour with this setup. [Use this link for an in-depth instructional video](https://youtu.be/SiPID94lsLw)
