Site preparation

These dispensers are very heavy. Place them on a sturdy counter or shelf capable of supporting at least 180 lbs for the CDS2 and 250 lbs for the CDS3. They are for indoor use only.

The dispenser must have at least four inches of space behind it. This space is needed for airflow, air filter removal, and cleaning. Minimal clearance is required between the dispenser sides and the wall or another appli- ance. The dispenser performs better if not placed near any heating appliance. Leave some space so the dispenser can be moved for cleaning.
