each side of the dispenser for electrical connection and ventilation
(Fig.1).
2. Rough-in the electrical service and water line.
§ Electrical: 115V, single phase, 15A receptacle required. The dispenser
has an integral 8 ft. (2.4 m) cord and plug.
§ Water: supply line (with shut-off valve) connects to the dispenser's 1/4"
MPT inlet.
NOTICE!
If installing optional Drip Tray Drain Kit or Leg Accessory,
complete those steps before proceeding. Refer to instructions
included with the Drip Tray Drain Kit, or see page 9 for Leg
Accessory instructions.
3. Connect water line. Recommended routing (Fig. 2) allows easy access
to water for cleaning and sanitizing procedure.
4. If installing the optional internal water lter*, please see
Maintenance/Cleaning Mode on page 12 before proceeding. If
