CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Use any liquid dishwashing detergent. DO NOT use any product containing ammonia or scouring powders, as these could dull, scratch or mar the unit and its contents.

Maintaining your Sparkling Beverage Maker

• Do not immerse the unit housing in water or spray it with water. Clean only by wiping with a damp sponge, cloth or paper towel.
• Do not position or store your Sparkling Beverage Maker close to a heat source.
• Always remove the drip tray for cleaning when the unit is not in use.

Maintaining your Beverage Bottle

• The beverage bottle designed for your Sparkling Beverage Maker is uniquely threaded to fit only a Cuisinart Sparkling Beverage Maker. Use only Cuisinart beverage bottles in your Sparkling Beverage Maker. The attempted use of other beverage bottles not approved by Cuisinart will damage your Sparkling Beverage Maker.
• Always check your beverage bottle and bottle cap before each use. If you discover that the bottle or cap has any defects, such as a distorted shape, scratches or cuts, or is generally worn down, stop using the defective item and replace it.

- The beverage bottles and cap are not dishwasher safe (hand wash only).

- Do not store near a heat source. Exposure to heat will likely damage your beverage bottle. Do not microwave.

- Each beverage bottle has an expiration date. Be sure to discontinue use and replace the bottle once the expiration date is reached.

- Always clean the beverage bottle immediately after each use. Soda syrups have a tendency to stain. Wash bottle with warm water and any liquid dishwashing detergent; rinse thoroughly.

• Carbonate cold water only.
- Never store bottle in the freezer.

Maintaining your Cuisinart Recyclable CO _2 Cartridge

• The Cuisinart recyclable CO_2 cartridge is designed specifically for a Cuisinart Sparkling Beverage Maker system. These cartridges are uniquely made to fit our exclusive quick-connect system. Only use Cuisinart recyclable CO_2 cartridges when carbonating water in your Sparkling Beverage Maker.
• Cuisinart recyclable CO _2 cartridges are safe and made specifically for household use only. Please follow all safety instructions.
• Never tamper with the recyclable CO_2 cartridge. Doing so could result in severe injury.
• Store only in a cool place that is not subject to frequent temperature changes or high temperatures. If subjected to heat, the pressure inside the cartridge will rise.
• All Cuisinart recyclable CO_2 cartridges are outfitted with an internal burst disk that will release/expel/discharge the CO_2 if the pressure inside the cartridge becomes too high.
• If this should happen, DO NOT touch the cartridge. Leave the cartridge alone until all the gas inside the cartridge is released. You will see the cartridge frost up and it will become exceptionally cold. DO NOT touch the cartridge until it has returned to room temperature. You will know it has returned to room temperature when the frost on the outside of the cartridge has dissipated.
• Continue to exercise caution when handling the recyclable CO_2 cartridge as it may still be cold.
• Do not transport your Sparkling Beverage Maker while the recyclable CO_2 cartridge is connected to the unit.
• Do not expose to direct sunlight or temperatures in excess of 130^ (54°C).

TIPS AND HINTS

• 3 pumps—two-second bursts of pressure on the carbonating activation lever leaving a few seconds in between each burst, are recommended to achieve an average level of carbonation. To achieve a stronger carbonation level, simply pump again to add more CO_2 .
• Add your favorite soda syrups to carbonated water, create your own homemade sodas, or try the recipes in our recipe booklet!
• Use your Sparkling Beverage Maker in tandem with our Juice Extractor—mix nutritious fresh juices into your carbonated water!
• Using ingredients readily available at home, like fresh juice or low calorie/diet syrups, is a healthier alternative to popular high-fructose sodas.
• Always tightly cap your beverage bottle to hold onto the fizz in your beverage!

Make your morning fizz –

Add some carbonated water to freshly squeezed orange or grapefruit juice. Serve in a champagne glass with a citrus wedge and make the kids feel extra special.

To each their own –

You decide how much fizz you want in your drink. Some prefer water with their bubbles, while others prefer bubbles to dominate the water; you be the judge. The more times you press, the more bubbles are being forced into your water.

The Chill Factor-

To get the best bubbles, be sure to use the coldest water possible. Store the carbonating bottles filled with fresh, filtered water in the refrigerator so they are ready to go when you are!

At a moment's notice –

Simple syrup can keep in the refrigerator for up to one month. Make a big batch so you can whip up drinks at any time.

Herbal-Infusions –

Herbs lend well to carbonated drinks. We

have recipes that use mint and basil, but be creative and try your favorites, especially when your herb garden is in full force!

A Sweet Finish -

Root beer and cola floats are delicious at any age. Use our Winter Spice syrup over vanilla ice cream for another frozen treat. Strawberries and cream more your thing? Pair our strawberry syrup with soda water and some vanilla ice cream. It is all about preference, so keep trying until you find your favorite.

For the after 5 o'clock crowd -

Let the Cuisinart Soda Maker be a fixture on your bar at home. From fizzy mojitos with a mint syrup to big bowls of spritzy, wine punches, carbonated cocktails make a statement.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Solution
Your Sparkling Beverage Maker isn't carbonating water	Be sure it's in a fully upright position on a level surface. Your cartridge may be empty. Full and empty weights are listed on the cartridge. Be sure your beverage bottle is filled to the water line.
CO2is not coming out when I press the lever.	The cylinder could be out of gas. If so you can exchange your empty cartridge for a refilled cartridge at participating retailers. Never throw away an empty cartridge. The needle could be clogged.
I need to clean the carbonating needle	Using a cup of plain warm water immerse the needle into the water for a few minutes. Gently press the lever to allow a small amount of gas to enter the cup of warm water. This should loosen any residual syrup residue.
The unit is continuing to make a hissing noise as if CO2is leaking from the machine.	Call customer service at 1-800-726-0190.
The beverage bottle won't unscrew from the machine.	Tilt the bottle away from the a machine to engage the pressure relief valves.
My water is too lightly carbonated	Ideally (3) one-second buzzes should be sufficient carbonation. When the unit buzzes while carbonating, it is signifying that you have reached the optimal absorption of CO2. It is recommended to make sure your water is extra carbonated when adding flavor to carbonated water.
Water from the beverage bottle and made a mess all over my countertop.	Make sure you only fill the water bottle to the water fill line. Overfilling the bottle can result in water getting drawn back into the unit.
My bottle is overflowing.	Make sure you are only carbonating water. Never add the flavor syrup before carbonating. Be sure to tilt the bottle of carbonated water at a 45 degree angle while slowing adding in the flavored syrups. All of these things could cause your bottle to overflow.
I hear gas escaping, but it's not making the "buzz" noise.	The water bottle might not be screwed in tight enough. Make sure to turn until firmly seated into the carbonating unit.
My beverage bottle has passed its expiration date.	The bottle is designed to withstand many cycles of carbonating but since nothing lasts forever its best to ensure that the bottle is not used indefinitely. As the expiration date approaches new bottles should be purchased to replace the current beverage bottles
I need to refill my CO2 cartridge.	Never attempt to refill a cartridge yourself. It must be refilled by an authorized Cuisinart retailer. Please bring your empty cartridge to a participating retailer to exchange it for a full one.

WARRANTY Limited Three-Year Warranty

This warranty is available to consumers only. You are a consumer if you own a Cuisinart Sparkling Beverage Maker that was purchased at retail for personal, family or household use. Except as otherwise required under applicable law, this warranty is not available to retailers or other commercial purchasers or owners.

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY

California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents have the option of returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store that sells Cuisinart products of the same type.

If neither of the above two options results in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility, if service or repair can be economically accomplished. Cuisinart and not the consumer will be responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair, replacement, or refund for nonconforming products under warranty.

California residents may also, according to their preference, return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair or, if necessary, replacement by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 800-726-0190. Cuisinart will be
