INSTRUCTIONS

NOTE: Please note that the filter (with the pump) must be located below the reservoir water level. 

If you wish to place the unit at the side of the reservoir, you must fill the filtration system with 

water before turning it on.

OPERATION

1.  Do NOT power on the chiller unit yet. Fully submerge the water pump to be used, plug it in, and ensure 

that water is moving freely between the holding reservoir and the chiller unit.

2.  Plug the chiller into a grounded outlet and ensure the power switch located on the back of the 

unit is in the “ON” (I) position.

WARNINGS:

•  Do NOT cover the chiller unit with anything during operation.
•  Place the chiller in the upright position ONLY for operation and storage purposes.
•  Avoid direct contact with liquids to the external body of the chiller unit. Failure to do so may 

result in damage to the unit or electric shock.

•  Keep power cord free of obstructions, such as heavy or sharp objects sitting directly on it.
•  This chiller is approved for indoor use ONLY.
•  Keep the unit away from flammable vapors, direct sunlight, high temperature exposure, and high 

humidity.

•  Do NOT submerse the chiller. Doing so will damage the unit and may inflict electric shock.

SETTING THE TEMPERATURE:

1.  Press and hold the SET button down for approximately 3 seconds to enter the water temperature 

programming mode. The previous water temperature setting will display.

2.  Use the /\ or \/ buttons on the control panel to increase or decrease the desired water 

temperature. Press the SET button once more, or wait approximately 8 seconds to select the 

desired temperature.

TEMPERATURE DISPLAY:

Press the SET button once to display the current set temperature value of the chiller unit, press the 

SET button again to display the actual temperature value of the water. The blinking display indicates 

the set temperature.

TEMPERATURE ERROR ADJUSTMENT:

1.  When the reservoir water temperature differs from the set temperature value, an “II” indication 

should appear in the display.

2.  Press and hold the /\ and \/ buttons at the same time for approximately 6 seconds to enter the error 

adjustment programming mode. The display will blink once this status is active.

3.  By pressing either the /\ or \/ buttons, the error adjustment range can be mo/- 1.5 degrees 

Celsius. *DO NOT USE THIS FUNCTION UNLESS IT IS NECESSARY*
