• 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..........3/4" (19mm)
Back ..............2" (50mm)
• 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 temperature settings
below 55˚F / 13˚C.
Note: The built-in thermostat maintains the hot and cold temperatures
automatically. The hot water temperature will be between
176-203˚F / 80-95˚C and the cold water temperature will be between
36-50˚F / 2-10˚C during this operation.
• 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.).
Note: Hot and cold water will not be instantly available as the unit will need
time to heat up and cool down the water.
CAUTION: DO NOT plug in the water dispenser until water
flows through both Hot and Cold water faucets.
Read carefully and understand all installation instructions
before installing the water dispenser.
Installing Your Water Dispenser
Follow the steps below to install the water dispenser.
1. Remove the cap from the water bottle first. Lift up the
water bottle and quickly place it into the water guard.
Make sure it is standing in an upright position. (The water bottle is not included.)
2. DO NOT plug in the water dispenser until you have checked that
water flows out of both the red and blue faucets when pressed.
Never turn on the water dispenser without water in it. Doing so
may cause the unit to catch fire or malfunction.
Note: To avoid spilling water on the floor, we recommend that you use
"Spill-Proof" bottles, which are available at any water distributor.
"Spill-Proof" bottles are easy to install since cap removal is not necessary.
Contact your local water distributor for more information.
3. Check that water flows out by pressing both the red and blue faucets one at a
time.
4. Plug the power cord into an 115Volt / 60Hz outlet.
5. To activate the water heater and cooler, turn ON the red and green switches on
the back of the unit. The hot & cold indicators in the front will be lit.

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.
Electrical Connections
Page 16
English
This water dispenser maintains instant hot and cold water for your cooking and
drinking needs. It accepts 2, 3 or 5-gallon water bottles.
Cold (blue) / Hot (red) Water Faucets
• Press the tap lever down to release the water flow.
• Pull the tap lever up to stop the water flow.
Note: The hot (red) water faucet is equipped with a child
safety lock to prevent accidental spilling of hot water. To
release the hot water flow, the tap lever must be
squeezed and then pushed down.
• In the case of WDQT165W press in the hot water safety child
lock and then push down. Release the lever to stop the water
flow.
• In case of the WDQSC245 for hot water press the child safety
latch down and press in the hot water lever.
Cold (green) / Hot (red) Water Switches
Cold Water Switch (green):
The cold water switch activates the cooling process when turned ON.
• Press the switch to the ON position. The switch should become lit.
Note: When turning on the unit for the first time, it will take
some time to chill the water.
Hot Water Switch (red):
The hot water switch activates the heating process when turned ON.
• Press the switch to the ON position. The switch should become lit.
Caution! Be careful when carrying hot water in your cup or
container to avoid any injury or harm from spills.
Cold (green) / Hot (red) Water Indicator Lights
When the green and red lights are illuminated on the front of the
unit, the heating and cooling process is in progress. When the cold
and hot water has reached their proper temperatures, both lights
will turn off automatically. Normally, hot water reaches proper
temperature first.

Using the Refrigerator Compartment
(Not in all models)
The convenient refrigerator compartment can be very useful in storing
beverages and other perishable food items.
• When the dispenser is turned on for the first time, avoid food
spoilage by waiting at least 8 hours before putting any food or
beverages into the compartment, as the compartment may not be
cool enough to store foods.
• The refrigerator is frost free. During the automatic defrost cycle, ice build-up on
the rear interior wall of the compartment will melt and drip into the
water-collecting tray and then evaporate naturally.
Using the Storage Compartment
(Not in all models)
The convenient storage compartment can be very useful in storing instant drink
mixes such as coffee, tea, hot chocolate powder and other snacks.
You may store items in both the upper and lower levels of the
compartment. Remove the plastic shelf to store taller items.
Replacing the Fuse (Not in all models)
When the fuse is blown, none of the indicator lights will be illuminated. You may
need to replace it with a new fuse.
Follow the instructions below to replace a blown fuse.
1. First, unplug the unit.
2. Use a small flathead screwdriver to open the fuse holder on the back of the unit
by turning the knob in a counter-clockwise direction. The fuse holder will pop out.
3. Remove the bad fuse and replace it with a new one. Use a 15Amp rating fuse
ONLY.
4. Close the fuse holder by pushing and turning the knob in a clockwise direction.
5. Plug the unit into the outlet.
6. If the indicator lights are still not illuminated after you have replaced the blown
fuse with a new one,
a) The new fuse may be defective. Check the fuse status.
b) You may have installed the fuse improperly. Repeat the steps above.
Page 18
English
Removable Drip Tray
The spilled water in the drip tray must be removed regularly and cleaned properly
to avoid any bacteria and residue build-up. To remove it gently, lift the tray up.
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 in between
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 the 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.
• 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.
WARNING!
Always unplug the unit before cleaning to
avoid electric shock. Failure to do so may
result in death or injury.
Proper Care and Cleaning

Page 19
English
19
Cleaning the Condenser Coils (Not in all models)
• 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 the cold and hot water switches.
• Unplug the unit.
• Drain the unit completely and remove the empty water bottle.
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.
Note: The location of the drain may vary depending on the model type.
• Remove the drain plug to release the water.
• 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
horizontal position as this may cause possible damage to internal parts.
• You must cover the unit to avoid dust and debris from entering the water guard.
Page 20
Troubleshooting Guide
The unit does not operate.
• Check if your water dispenser is plugged in.
• Check the circuit breaker and the fuse to make sure there is power at the outlet.
The unit is plugged in but the indicator lights are not illuminated.
• Read the "Replacing the Fuse" section on page 17.
There is no water from the faucet.
This is due to an improper setting of the water bottle or from blocked airflow.
• Adjust the position of the bottle properly on the water bottle guard so the air
opening is not blocked.
There is no hot water coming from the faucet.
• Too much hot water was used in too short a period of time.
• You may need to wait awhile for more water to be heated.
• Check if the hot water switch is in the ON position.
The water is not cool.
This is due to either a compressor malfunction (for units with compressor) or the cold
water switch may be in the OFF position.
• Check if the cold water button is in the ON position.

Compressor runs too frequently.
This may be necessary to maintain a constant temperature during hot and humid
days.
• Clean the condenser coils on the back of the unit.
The water is leaking from the drip tray.
This is due to over-spilling of the water in the drip tray.
• You must remove the drip tray from the dispenser and empty out the water.
• Replace it once you have emptied the water.
What happens if the water dispenser is running dry
(without the water)?
• You must never let the water dispenser run dry as this may cause damage to the
unit and create a fire. DO NOT let the dispenser run without water.
• You must replace the empty bottle immediately.
What size of water bottle can I use with this water dispenser?
• You can use 2, 3 or 5-gallon bottles with our water dispenser.
