IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:

• WARNING: BURN HAZARD. The dispenser heats water to a temperature of approximately 190°F (88°C). Water temperatures above 125°F (52°C) can cause severe burns or death from scalding. Children, the disabled and the elderly are at highest risk of being scalded. Children should be supervised by an adult when using this product.

• WARNING: CRUSH AND FALL HAZARD. Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the outside of the dispenser, or on the shelves inside the storage cabinet. They could tip the dispenser over or fall and seriously injure themselves. Children should be supervised by an adult when using this product.

• WARNING: FIRE HAZARD. Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Do not operate dispenser with a damaged cord. Do not use with an underrated extension cord.

• WARNING: SHOCK HAZARD. Unplug the water dispenser before cleaning or wiping up spilled water on unit. Do not attempt to service the dispenser. Do not operate dispenser with a damaged cord.

• WARNING: TOXIC SUBSTANCE HAZARD. Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality. Do not dispense anything other than water of known quality.

• CAUTION: SPOILED FOOD HAZARD. The storage compartment in this unit is not a refrigerator. Do not store perishable food in compartment.

DANGER: CHILD ENTRAPMENT HAZARD. PROPERLY DISPOSE OF THE WATER DISPENSER AS DIRECTED BELOW.

Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned dispensers with storage areas are still dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old water dispenser, please follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.

BEFORE YOU THROW AWAY YOUR OLD DISPENSER:

• Take off the doors and discard separately.

• Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

• If the dispenser door has a lock, make it unusable.

REFRIGERANT DISPOSAL:

Your old water dispenser may have used a regulated refrigerant in its cooling system. These refrigerants are believed to harm stratospheric ozone. If you are throwing away your old dispenser, make sure the refrigerant is removed and recovered for proper disposal by an EPA-certified technician. If you intentionally release this refrigerant, you can be subject to fines and imprisonment under provisions of environmental legislation.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

PROPER INSTALLATION AND LOCATION

1) Dispenser is for

indoor use only. Do not use outdoors.

surrounding air temperature will be above 100°F (38°C) or below 50°F (10°C).
