GENERAL OPERATING PROCEDURES

Follow these simple instructions for the setup and operation of your new dispenser.

1. Lift unit out of shipping container and remove all tapes and packing materials. Do not
discard carton until dispenser is completely assembled and working.

2. Ensure magnetic impeller and wire grate are installed by lifting plastic lid and looking down
into bowl. The word "TOP" should be visible on impeller body. Metal grate should be
installed over impeller.

3. Add liquid to be heated/dispensed. If working with a powder, mix with water prior to pouring
into bowl. For best results, use hot liquid when mixing with powder. This improves mixing
and greatly reduces time to reach serving temperature. Do not place chocolate or cocoa
powder directly into bowl. Mix fi rst.

4. Plug unit into 115V AC outlet.

5. Turn switch on front right side of unit to ON position. This controls indicator light, heating
element and motor. Power is indicated by switch light.

that maintains the product at proper serving temperature.

top with your fi ngers. Release latch to loosen bowl from element band and swing clamp
