Steps

☠️ WARNING ☠️Turn off and unplug your machine before starting

⚠️CAUTION ⚠️ Drain the chiller completely prior to removal.

1. Open the lower panel on the right side of the machine. Locate the side of the chiller at the right end of the opening.

   

2. Unplug the power plug from the chiller by gently pulling it out. Remove the signal wire from the chiller by unscrewing its retaining ring and then pulling it out.

   

3. Use a cabinet key to open the exhaust system access panel on the back of the machine. Locate the side of the chiller, on the left, and the two silicone hoses that connect the chiller inlet and the chiller outlet.

   

4. Wrap a piece of masking tape around one of the hoses, and place a second piece of tape on the side of the chiller that hose is connected. This will indicate which fitting that hose connects to and ensure that both hoses get reconnected properly.

   

5. Using a pair of small wire cutters, clip the zipties that connect the hoses to the chiller.

   

   ⚠️CAUTION ⚠️ Do this at the CHILLER end of the hoses, NOT the MACHINE end.

   Gently pull the hoses off of the chiller inlet and outlet. Have a towel or bucket ready to catch any water spillage.

6. Remove the 4 Phillips head screws that hold the chiller into the machine; one on each corner of the chiller’s rear panel.

   

7. Gently slide the chiller from the machine. Use the open side panels to carefully move the chiller out of the back of the machine.
