INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove all packing materials. This includes the foam base and all adhesive
tape holding the accessories inside and outside.
2. Inspect and remove any remaining packaging, tape and printed material
before turning on the water dispenser.
Note: Allow the water dispenser to stand in an upright position for at least
12 hours before turning on the power.
PROPER LOCATION
• To ensure that your water dispenser works at the maximum efficiency it was
designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper air
circulation and electrical connections.
• The following are the recommended clearances around the water dispenser.
Sides 2" (50mm)
Back 4" (100mm)
• Do not install your water dispenser in any location that is not properly
insulated or heated because the unit is not designed to operate in room
temperature below 55˚F / 13˚C. The water dispenser is for indoor use only.
Room temperature should not exceed 97° F / 36° C.
Note: Thermostats maintain the hot and cold water temperatures
automatically. On the compressor cooled water coolers the hot water
temperature will be between 190˚-203˚ F/ 88˚- 95˚ C and the cold
water temperature will be between 43˚- 50˚ F/ 6˚-10˚ C.
• Select a suitable location for the unit on a hard even surface away from
direct sunlight and heat sources (e.g., radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking
appliances, etc.).
CAUTION: DO NOT plug in the water dispenser until full bottle is
installed first and water flows from both Hot and Cold
water faucets.
Note: Hot and cold water will not be instantly available as the unit will need
time to heat up and cool down the water.
PREPARATION BEFORE FIRST OPERATION
Before connecting the unit to the power source, Let it stand upright for
approximately 12 hours. This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the
cooling system from handling during transportation.
The water dispenser is pre-cleaned at the factory but the reservoir and water
lines should be flushed with fresh water before use as follows:
1. Do NOT plug in the water dispenser.
2. Check and make sure the drain cap on the back of the water dispenser is

ELECTRICAL CONECTIONS
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord containing a grounding
wire and a grounded plug. The plug must be inserted into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded.
• Improper use of the plug may result in the risk of electric shock.
• Consult a qualified electrician or service technician if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood or if in doubt as to whether
the appliance has been properly grounded.
WIRING REQUIREMENTS
This appliance must be plugged into a 15Amp, 115 Volt, 60Hz
GROUNDED OUTLET.
Note: Where a standard two-prong outlet is encountered, it is the personal
responsibility and obligation of the consumer to have it replaced with a
properly grounded three-prong outlet.
EXTENSION CORDS
We do not recommend the use of an extension cord with
this unit.
POWER INTERRUPTIONS
Occasionally, there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or
other causes. Remove the power cord from wall outlet when a power outage occurs. When power has been restored, re-plug the power cord into
wall outlet.

PROPER CARE AND CLEANING
Caution: Before using any cleaning product, always read and follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and warnings to avoid personal injury and/
or product damage.
Note: It is best to clean the dispenser and its surrounding area when replacing
the empty bottle with a new one. This way you can move the unit easily
without the weight of the bottle.
GENERAL
• Before cleaning, place a dust cover on top of the water guard to prevent dust
and debris from going into the dispenser while cleaning.
• Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda mixed with
warm water. Use a sponge or a soft cloth dampened with the cleaning solution
to wipe down the unit.
9
English
Always unplug the unit before cleaning to avoid electric shock.
Failure to do so may result in death or injury.
• Wipe with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine bleach, concentrated
detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. Some of these chemicals may
dissolve, damage and/or discolor the unit.
• The spilled water in the drip tray must be removed regularly and cleaned
properly to avoid any bacteria and residue build-up.
• We recommend that you clean the water dispenser at least twice a year. When
cleaning, you do not need to take anything apart. Simply pour the baking
soda/water solution through the water guard. Then rinse with plenty of water
and allow the water to drain.
• Remove the accumulated water from the drip tray, and wipe the compartment
clean.
WARNING!
CLEANING THE CONDENSER COILS
We recommend that you move the dispenser away from the wall and vacuum
or brush the coils on the rear of the unit at least 4 times a year. Some operating
environments may require more frequent cleaning.
FOR LONG VACATIONS OR ABSENCES / MOVING
• Turn OFF water dispenser.
• Unplug the unit.
• If bottle still contains water, remove it quickly and
carefully to avoid spillage.
• Put a container or bucket on the floor under the drain on
the back of the unit to catch the water released from the
drain tube.
• Remove the drain plug located on the side of the unit to
release the water and empty both the tanks.
Note: Remove drain plug by turning it in a “clockwise direction”. Please note not
to use any tools to remove or install the drain plug. Use hands only.
• After completing the drain process, replace the drain plug to its
original position.
• You must store the unit at room temperature.
• Avoid storing the unit where the temperature is at or below freezing.
• When moving, the unit must be moved vertically. DO NOT move the unit in

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
If the power is switched on and the compressor will not start up:
• Make sure the power cord is plugged in properly
• If the water dispenser is brought indoors in the winter, give it a few hours to
warm up to room temperature before plugging it in. Cold bottled water or
the temperature of the water dispenser itself may affect the thermostat setting.
If the room temperature is lower than the thermostat setting or the water
dispenser itself is cold the compressor will not start up. We do not advise
that you make any adjustments to the thermostat setting.
If water dispenser operation is noisy:
• Make sure the water dispenser sits on a level surface. If the dispenser is
noisy after its first use, unplug it for half an hour and try again.
If the condenser becomes too hot:
• When the compressor is working, it is normal for the condenser to be hot. If
you are concerned that the temperature is too high, check to see that there is
enough room around the water dispenser to allow proper ventilation.
If the cold water tap doesn’t work and the cold water tank freezes
• The cold water tap may freeze under extreme conditions. If the water is
not being used, the cooling compartment is loaded and the compressor is
running continuously, the cold water tank can freeze.
• To thaw the cold water tank, turn off the power, unplug the unit and remove
the water bottle. Keep draining hot water and pouring it back into the water
receptacle. Once the tank has thawed, place the bottle on the unit, plug the
unit in again, and turn the hot and cold switches back on.
If the water is not cold enough:
• This is due to either a compressor malfunction or the cold water may be in
the OFF position.
• Check if the cold water is in the ON position.
• Cold water is used very frequently.
If water is dripping from the dispenser onto the floor:
• The water bottle may have small pinholes or cracks and may be leaking.
• The drain plug in the rear may be improperly fastened. Check that the soft
rubber seal is not torn or damaged.
• The drip tray may be full of water. Take out the drip tray and empty it before
replacing it.
