Setup and Installation
- Unpacking: Carefully remove the dispenser from its packaging. Inspect for any damage.
- Placement: Place the dispenser on a stable, level, and dry surface. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the unit, especially at the rear and sides, to allow for proper heat dissipation from the cooling system.
- Cleaning: Before first use, thoroughly clean all removable parts (tanks, lids, drip trays, agitators) with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
- Assembly:
- Insert the agitators into their respective positions within the base unit.
- Place the clean beverage tanks onto the base unit, ensuring they are securely seated.
- Attach the lids to the tanks.
- Position the drip trays under each dispensing lever.
- Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet that matches the appliance's voltage and frequency (680W power requirement).
Operating Instructions
- Filling Tanks: Open the lids and pour your desired cold beverages into each of the three 18-liter tanks. Do not overfill.
- Power On: Locate the power switch (usually on the side or rear of the base unit) and turn the dispenser ON.
- Cooling and Agitation: The cooling system will begin to chill the beverages, and the fountain-type agitation system will start mixing the contents to maintain an even temperature and prevent settling. This process may take some time depending on the initial temperature of the beverages.
- Dispensing: To dispense a beverage, place a cup under the desired dispensing lever and press the lever inward. Release the lever to stop the flow.
- Monitoring Levels: Regularly check beverage levels in the transparent tanks and refill as needed.
