Installation, Care & Use Manual

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE YOU BEGIN

For your satisfaction and safety, read all instructions, cautions and warnings before installing or using this instant hot

water dispenser.

Make sure that all electrical wiring and connections conform to local codes. A standard 115-volt grounded electrical outlet is required for the dispenser’s electrical power. The wall outlet powering the dispenser must have power supplied to it continuously. It is recommended that a dedicated control valve be installed on the cold water line supplying water to this system. If you suspect elevated levels of chlorine in your water, or your water has a rusty appearance before the installation

of this unit, it is recommended to use our water filtration system. This product contains stainless steel. The manufacturer cannot guarantee against rusty water because of the number of factors that are involved beyond the manufacturer’s control. However, the sudden appearance of rusty water discharged from the hot water dispenser may indicate the need for service or replacement of this product.

Moving parts inside the tank causing a rattling noise is normal.
