I recently got a new Jobo CPP-2 along with the Lift but I am a bit confused with its installation, especially because it came with very inadequate instructions. At the sheet of instuctions that came with it, a little drawing points to two inlets: one for the cold water and the other for draining. The thing is that my CPP-2 has three inlets and the are quite different than even the online html instructions I found on the US site of Jobo.

I have two photos attached from the sides.

Can someone explain to me what they are?

The photo on the left shows the drain valve. It is on the left side of the unit. Mine can be quite hard to twist so take care not to torque it too much.

On the photo on the right, I am not sure. Mine does not look like yours. Fill the unit up with water and eventually water will trickle out of the drain. The other should be the cold water inlet. I have never needed it but I live in a cooler area.

In the right hand picture, the inlet on the right is the cold water inlet. The one on the left is the overflow. Why there's a tee attached to it, I have no idea.

The previous two comments are correct.Picture on the left is the main tub drain attach hose to it to drain or replace water out of the main tub,on the right hand side picture, connection on the right is like your washing machine connection for cold water if you have to cool the tub water quickly for a process it opens up with solenoid to cool the tub temperature to desired or set temp. On the left attach hose to it and to the drain or a container to catch overflow of tub water.
Hope this helps

Thank you.
Its what the instructions say, just the design was different (especially the T of the overflow) so I wanted to make sure.

Perhaps is one of the 2 inlets at that tee used for a hot water inlet. I have something like that. When I start processing the waterbath temp. is mostly lower than 20°C. I inject, to speed up the warm up, some hotwater untill I reached my processing temp.
