4. Setup
Follow these steps to set up your water dispenser:
- Unpack: Carefully remove the dispenser from its packaging. Inspect for any damage.
- Placement: Place the dispenser on a stable, flat, and dry surface. Ensure there is at least 10 cm (4 inches) of clearance from walls to allow for proper ventilation. Avoid placing it near direct sunlight or heat sources.
- Install Water Bottle: Remove the cap from a new 4.5 to 18.9-liter water bottle. Invert the bottle and carefully place it onto the support collar on top of the dispenser. Ensure it is seated firmly and water begins to flow into the dispenser's reservoir.
- Prime the System: Before plugging in the unit, dispense water from both the hot and cold faucets until water flows steadily. This ensures the internal tanks are filled and prevents dry heating.
- Plug In: Once the system is primed, plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
