CAUTION!
No service or maintenance should be performed until the technician has thoroughly read this service manual. Except for routine cleaning and sanitizing, only qualied technicians should attempt to service or maintain this equipment.

Countertop Installation

The E7 Series countertop model is designed to t on counters underneath standard mounted cabinets, this does not apply to E15 Series models. See
page 4 for dimensions. Installation instructions for freestanding model
may be found on page 9.
1. A clearance of at least 7.62 cm (3") is required behind and on each side of the dispenser for electrical connection and ventilation
(Fig.1).

§ Electrical: 230V, single phase. The dispenser is provided with a 2.4m (8 ft.) power cord with choice of CEE 7/7, AS 3112, or BS1363 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 8 for Leg Accessory instructions.
3. Connect water line (Fig. 2.1).
4. Connect to the 1/2" ID drain line (Fig. 2.2) (barb tting provided) and
route to customer drain. Drain line must slope 6 mm per 30,4 mm run (1/4" per foot).
