2. INTRO TO U-CHILL
U-Chill keeps your drink at its opening temperature, so every sip is as cool as the first. It can be easily integrated into any surface. Simply specify an opening, place U-Chill in, then plug into an electrical outlet. We recommend the opening is cut by a countertop fabricator, and installation can be completed by kitchen installers.

4. DESIGN ALLOWANCE
When designing with U-Chill, all that's required is the specification of an opening, an accessible power outlet and, depending on the size of the space, a small vent for good airflow.

4.1 MINIMUM ALLOWANCES
Ensure that the space has a minimum internal height of 17" and the U-Chill unit is at least 3" away from the internal walls.
If installing multiple U-Chill's into one space, ensure that the center points of each opening are least 7 7/8" apart.

4.2 SURFACE
Counterop thickness allowances between 3/16" - 3". Do not install into metal or glass surfaces.

Countertop thickness: 3/16" - 3"

4.3 MARINE APPLICATIONS
This product is sold with a 110-240v powerpack that delivers a regulated 12v supply that is essential for operation and warranty. This powerpack must be used in all applications, as it provides a regulated 12v supply, particularly if the product is to be used in a marine/battery environment where supply voltage may fluctuate.
If designing U-Chill into a yacht or marine environment:
Install in-cabin and keep dry

Keep away from chlorinated water, such as hot tubs and swimming pools

6

5. VENTILATION
We advise that a small vent is included in all installations, to allow sufficient airflow to the U-Chill base unit. Be aware if the ambient air around the U-Chill is above 32 degrees, the unit will not function as intended and shut down. If ventilation isn't possible, there are larger spaces which don't require it, see below for details. If ventilation is not possible in smaller spaces than what is required, we do not recommend installing your U-Chill as functionality may be compromised.
Ventilation is not required when U-Chill is installed into a space with a volume larger than 4.5 cu. ft. A small vent is required when U-Chill is installed into a space with a volume smaller than 4.6 cu. ft. See following page for further instructions.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

Ensure U-Chill is not installed in close proximity to appliances that generate heat
Ensure the base and sides of the U-Chill are not obstructed
Ensure the base and sides of the U-Chill are not located in an area where they are vulnerable to damage or obstruction

7

5.1 EXAMPLE A - NON-VENTED INSTALL

Spaces that are greater than 4.5 cu. ft. do not require ventilation when a single U-Chill is installed.
If installing multiple U-Chills into a single space, ensure that the void allows for at least 4.5 cu. ft. per U-Chill, otherwise ventilation is required.
This example would not require ventilation: 8" x 32" x 32" = 4.7 cu. ft.

200m8m"

3820"0mm 38200"mm

5.2 EXAMPLE B - VENTED INSTALL
Spaces that are less than 4.5 cu. ft. require a small vent into another void or into ambient air to allow for better airflow circulation.
The vent should have an area of at least 14 sq. in. and is usually best placed in the back panel. We recommend the vent to be placed at the top of the panel for improved air flow.
This example would require a vent: 12" x 12" x 32" = 2.54 cu. ft.

If not, the touch controls will not calibrate and it will not function correctly

6.1 CUT OPENING & VENT

For opening - see page 10 For ventilation - see section 5

6.2 INSERT U-CHILL

Carefully lift the U-Chill from the box using two hands and lower slowly into opening. Push down evenly to secure the unit in place
There is a black circular seal on the base unit top where the Crown will sit, don't remove this

6.3 SEAL SURFACE 6.4 ATTACH CROWN 6.5 POWER UP

Before placing the Crown onto the U-Chill, it is recommended to place a bead of silicone at the edge of the U-Chill unit lip
Ensure no silicone is between the Crown and U-Chill unit magnets
Place the Crown onto the U-Chill, push down evenly to attach the magnets
Wipe away any excess silicone, taking care not to scratch the Crown surface
Remove the protective film from the Crown
Always ensure the Crown is attached before plugging into electrical outlet
The power pack generates a small amount of heat, so place as far away from the U-Chill as the installation space and cable allows
Ensure the power pack is not near a surface that might be subject to liquids. Best practice is to mount onto a surrounding wall
Don't remove the Crown once powered up. If it is removed, unplug from the electrical outlet, place the Crown back on. Wait 15 seconds, then turn on.

9. TRANSPORT & HANDLING
Please only install a U-Chill into a fixed surface or unit that will not be moved. If the surface or unit must be moved, please return the U-Chill to its original packaging and install once the surface/unit is in its final location and position. Damages to the appliance, as a result of transporting while installed are not covered under the U-Chill warranty.
10 . SAFETY NOTICE - IMPORTANT
This appliance should not be used by children of any age, or persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capacities, unless supervised by an adult at all times. When U-Chill is on and in Boost mode, individuals should refrain from putting their hand deep within the lower part of the chamber, due to hazards from cold surfaces. For stability, and to avoid hazards, the appliance must be fixed in accordance with the included installation instructions. We recommend unplugging the U-Chill when not in use.
