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.

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. 
 
2) To prevent algae growth, find a 
location for your dispenser that is 
protected from direct sunlight and 
other sources of heat (e.g., radiators, 
baseboard heaters, cooking appliances, 
etc).  Do not use when relative 
humidity is greater than 90%. 
 
3) Do not install the dispenser where the 
surrounding air temperature will be 
above 100°F (38°C) or below 50°F 
(10°C).   
 
4) Place the dispenser on a level surface 
that can support its weight with a  full 
water bottle on it. 
 
5) To ensure that your water dispenser 
works at the maximum efficiency, 
leave at least 2 inches of clearance 
between all sides of the dispenser and 
any walls.  
 
6) To prevent damage to dispenser, do 
not plug dispenser into the power 
outlet until reading the instructions 
first!

PREPARING, LOADING  & OPERATING  YOUR DISPENSER 
 
1) Make sure that the dispenser is not plugged into the electrical outlet a\
nd that both the 
hot and cold power switches (on the back of the dispenser) are set to \
the OFF position.   
 
2) Sanitize the dispenser water tanks prior to installing a full bottle of water for the first 
time (see “Proper Care and Cleaning of Dispenser”). 
 
3) The water bottle will have a cap.  The cap may have a stopper that is intended to be 
pushed into the bottle.  (Sometimes these stoppers are covered by a removable 
paper/foil seal.)  If your bottle has a cap with a stopper, simply hold the water bottle 
vertically straight upside down and place the water bottle into the supp\
ort collar on 
top of the water dispenser.  The post in the collar will push the stoppe\
r into the bottle.  
If the water bottle cap does not have a stopper that is intended to be p\
ushed into the 
bottle, first remove the support collar of the water dispenser by turning it 
counterclockwise and pulling it straight up and off.  Then remove the cap from the 
water bottle.  Quickly lift the water bottle, turn it upside down, and place the water 
bottle onto the top of the water dispenser.  Wipe up any water that spills on to the 
water dispenser or floor. 
 
                                                   ________Rotate counterclockwise
