PRIOR TO FIRST TIME USE

IMPORTANT: Prior to using the Water Dispenser for the first time, the water tanks need to be flushed in order to prevent the water from tasting awkward.

The water dispenser tanks also need to be cleaned periodically to prevent buildup of mineral deposits that can affect water taste and flow. To clean the water tanks:

1.Make sure that the power switches are in the OFF position

2.Create a solution of one quart of water with either one quart of vinegar or four ounces of lemon juice. Make enough so you can fill the water tank all the way to the top.

3.Remove the bottle supporter and pour the solution in the opening at the top of the dispenser.

4.Let the cleaning solution sit inside the unit for about 1 hour, drain out the cleaning solution from the drain plug at the back of the unit. When no more water comes from drain plug, press the hot and cold dispenser buttons to drain out the solution.

5.Rinse the water dispenser with clean water.

6.Install the water bottle ( see Loading the Dispenser, page 5)

IMPORTANT: Before use, dispense at least one quart of water from each tap to make sure the cleaning solution is completely removed.
