Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the optimal performance of your touchless soap dispenser. Refer to the included installation instruction manual for detailed, step-by-step guidance.

  1. Preparation: Ensure the installation area is clean, dry, and free from obstructions. Gather necessary tools (e.g., drill, screwdriver, level).
  2. Mounting Location: Select a suitable wall location, ensuring adequate clearance for operation and refilling. Avoid mounting directly above electrical outlets or in areas prone to excessive splashing.
  3. Drilling: Mark the drilling points accurately using the provided template (if applicable). Drill holes according to the instructions.
  4. Secure Mounting: Attach the mounting bracket to the wall using appropriate fasteners. Secure the dispenser to the mounting bracket.
  5. Battery Installation: Open the battery compartment, insert the required batteries (typically AA or AAA, not included) according to polarity markings. Close the compartment securely.
  6. Filling the Dispenser: Open the soap reservoir cap. Pour liquid soap into the reservoir, ensuring not to overfill. Close the cap tightly.
  7. Initial Test: Activate the dispenser a few times to prime the pump and ensure proper soap dispensing.

Note: For detailed diagrams and specific mounting hardware, consult the dedicated installation instruction sheet provided in the package.

Operating Instructions

The Kohler Bardon Touchless Soap Dispenser is designed for hygienic and convenient use.

  1. Activation: Place your hand approximately 2-5 cm (1-2 inches) below the sensor located at the bottom of the dispenser.
  2. Soap Dispensing: The sensor will detect your hand, and a measured amount of soap will be dispensed automatically.
  3. Multiple Dispenses: If more soap is desired, remove your hand and place it under the sensor again.
  4. Sensor Sensitivity: Ensure the sensor area is clear of obstructions and direct sunlight, which can interfere with operation.

Maintenance and Care

Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your dispenser.

  • Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For polished chrome finishes, use a non-abrasive cleaner specifically designed for chrome. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or ammonia-based cleaners, as these can damage the finish.
  • Sensor Cleaning: Gently wipe the sensor window with a soft, dry cloth to remove any soap residue or dust that might obstruct its function.
  • Refilling Soap: Refill the soap reservoir when the soap level is low. Avoid mixing different types of soap, as this can lead to clogging.
  • Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when the dispenser stops responding or the indicator light (if present) signals low power. Always replace all batteries at once with new ones of the same type.
  • Long-Term Storage: If the dispenser will not be used for an extended period, empty the soap reservoir and remove the batteries to prevent leakage and corrosion.

The KOHLER Life-Bright finish is designed to last 2 times longer than industry durability standards, strengthened with 3 layers of coating. Proper care will help maintain this finish.
