SodaStream Genesis Home Soda Maker Instruction Manual

The SodaStream Genesis Home Soda Maker is designed to transform ordinary tap water into sparkling water or soda in seconds. This system offers a convenient and efficient method for preparing carbonated beverages at home, reducing the need for store-bought bottles and cans.

The Genesis model operates without electricity or batteries, relying on a CO2 cylinder to carbonate water. This manual will guide you through the process of setting up your device, carbonating water, and maintaining your SodaStream Genesis for optimal performance.

Інструкція з експлуатації

1. Prepare the Carbonating Bottle:
   • Fill the SodaStream carbonating bottle with cold tap water up to the fill line. Do not overfill.
   • Ensure the water is cold, as colder water carbonates more effectively.
2. Прикріпіть пляшку:
   • Twist the carbonating bottle into the soda maker's bottle rest until it is securely locked in place.
   • The bottle should be upright and centered.
3. Карбонізуйте воду:
   • Press the carbonating button located on the top of the machine firmly for 1-2 seconds, then release.
   • Repeat this process 3-5 times for standard carbonation, or more for a stronger fizz. You will hear a buzzing sound as the CO2 is released into the water.

   Video: Shows a user filling a SodaStream bottle with water, attaching it to the machine, and pressing the carbonation button to create sparkling water. Bubbles are visible during the carbonation process.

4. Remove the Bottle:
   • Once carbonation is complete, gently twist the bottle counter-clockwise to release it from the machine.
   • A small amount of excess CO2 may be released, which is normal.
5. Add Flavors (Optional):
   • If desired, add SodaStream flavor syrups or other flavorings to your carbonated water. Always add flavors after carbonation to prevent foaming and potential damage to the machine.
   • Gently mix the flavor into the water.

Технічне обслуговування

• Очищення машини: Wipe the exterior of the SodaStream Genesis with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the machine in water or use abrasive cleaners.
• Cleaning Carbonating Bottles: Wash carbonating bottles with lukewarm water and a mild dish soap. Do not wash in a dishwasher unless explicitly stated as dishwasher-safe on the bottle. Avoid hot water, as it can damage the bottle.
• CO2 Cylinder Replacement: When the CO2 cylinder is empty (you will notice a decrease in fizz or no carbonation), replace it with a new SodaStream CO2 cylinder. Empty cylinders can often be exchanged for full ones at participating retailers.
• Зберігання: Store the SodaStream Genesis in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources.

Усунення несправностей

No Fizz or Weak Carbonation:

• Ensure the CO2 cylinder is properly installed and not empty.
• Verify the carbonating bottle is securely attached to the machine.
• Confirm the water used is cold.
• Press the carbonating button firmly and hold for the recommended duration (1-2 seconds per press), repeating 3-5 times.

Water Leaking During Carbonation:

• Check that the carbonating bottle is filled only to the fill line and not overfilled.
• Ensure the bottle is securely twisted into the machine.
• Do not carbonate anything other than plain water.

Machine Not Operating:

• Since the Genesis model does not require electricity or batteries, ensure the CO2 cylinder is correctly installed and has gas.
• If issues persist, contact SodaStream customer support.
