Unboxing and Initial Inspection
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Verify that all items are present: the soap dispenser unit, a USB-C charging cable, and this user manual. Inspect the dispenser for any signs of damage.
Charging the Dispenser
Before first use, fully charge the dispenser. The built-in 1500mAh LFP battery provides up to 100 days of use per charge. Connect the provided USB-C cable to the charging port located on the top of the dispenser. The indicator light will show charging status.

Filling with Soap

- Reattach the bottle to the main unit and tighten it counter-clockwise until secure.

Operating Instructions
Dispensing Soap
The dispenser features a smart sensor that detects hand distance to adjust foam output. Place your hand under the nozzle:
- Closer (0–1.2 inches / 0–3 cm) for less foam.
- Farther (1.2–2.8 inches / 3–7 cm) for more foam.
No buttons are needed for dispensing.
Kids Mode / 8-Second Timer Light
The dispenser includes an 8-second timer light to guide children in proper handwashing habits. This feature encourages thorough cleaning.

Child Lock Mode
After one minute of inactivity, the indicator light goes out, and the soap dispenser enters child lock mode. In this mode, you cannot operate or turn off the dispenser, but it can still dispense soap. To exit child lock mode, press and hold the setting button until the indicator light illuminates. In the unlocked state, you can adjust the dispensing volume or turn off the dispenser.
Maintenance
Self-Cleaning Mode
The dispenser features a built-in self-cleaning mode to flush the pump. This is useful when switching soaps or after long periods of inactivity. To activate, double-tap the power button. The dispenser will automatically return to standby in 20 seconds.
