SAFETY INFORMATION
Recognize Safety Information
This is the safety-alert symbol. When you see this
symbol on our machine or in this manual, be alert to
the potentially of personal injury.
Follow recommended precautions and safe operating
practices.
Understand Signal Words
A signal word - DANGER, WARNING, OR CAUTION
is used with the safety-alert symbol. DANGER identi-
fies the most serious hazards.
DANGER
Safety signs with signal word DANGER or WARNING
are typically near specific hazards.
General precautions are listed on CAUTION safety
signs. CAUTION also calls attention to safety messages in this manual.
WARNING
CAUTION
Follow Safety Instructions
Carefully read all safety messages in this manual and on your machine safety signs. Keep safety signs in
good condition. Replace missing or damaged safety signs. Learn how to operate the machine and how to
use the controls properly. Do not let anyone operate the machine without instructions. Keep your machine in
proper working condition. Unauthorized modifications to the machine may impair function and/or safety and
affect the machine life.
CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) Warning
CO2 Displaces Oxygen. Strict Attention must be observed in the prevention of CO2 (carbon dioxide)
gas leaks in the entire CO2 and soft drink system. If a CO2 gas leak is suspected, particularly in a
small area, immediately ventilate the contaminated area before attempting to repair the leak. Personnel exposed to high concentration of CO2 gas will experience tremors which are followed rapidly by
loss of consciousness and suffocation.
Shipping, Storing, Or Relocating Unit
CAUTION: Before shipping, storing, or relocating this Unit, the product systems must be sanitized
and all sanitizing solution must be purged from the product systems. A freezing ambient temperature
will cause residual water remaining inside the Unit to freeze resulting in damage to internal components of the Unit.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
IMPORTANT: To the user of this manual – This manual is a guide for installing, operating, and
maintaining this equipment. Refer to Table of Contents for page location of detailed information
pertaining to questions that arise during installation, operation, service and maintenance, or
troubleshooting this equipment.
This section gives the description, theory of operation, and design data for the Ambassador Four-Flavor
Pre-Mix Dispensing Stations with or without lighted sign, hereafter referred to as units.
UNIT DESCRIPTION
The units (see Figure 1) are compact and lightweight and may be island–mounted or installed on or on edge of
countertop. Units are designed to dispense pre-cooled pre-mix product from either a refrigeration unit or cold
plate (see Figure 2) and consist basically of four dispensing valves attached to front housing, a base with cup
rest, and lighted sign if applicable. Installation of unit, installation of LOOSE–SHIPPED PARTS (see Table 1),
connection of unit to refrigeration unit or cold plate, and adjusting dispensing valve product flow rate is all that is
required for unit operation.
