Remove the chiller

  2. Unplug the power plug from the chiller by gently pulling it out. Remove the signal wire 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. Find the side of the chiller, on the left, and the two silicone hoses that connect to the chiller inlet and outlet.

  4. Wrap a piece of masking tape around one of the hoses, and put a second piece of tape on the side of the chiller where that hose connects. This marks which fitting the hose belongs to, so both hoses are reconnected correctly.

  5. Using small wire cutters, clip the zip ties that secure the hoses to the chiller. Do this at the chiller end of the hoses, not the machine end. Gently pull the hoses off the chiller inlet and outlet, with a towel or bucket ready to catch any water.
