4. Setup Instructions

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the water cooler from its packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage.
2. Placement: Place the unit on a level, stable surface, ensuring adequate ventilation around the back and sides. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources.
3. Initial Cleaning: Before first use, it is recommended to clean the water paths. Fill the water bottle compartment with a mixture of water and citric acid (as per citric acid instructions for cleaning appliances), then dispense water from all spouts until the mixture is gone. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
4. Install Water Bottle: Open the bottom compartment door. Insert the probe into a new 3 or 5-gallon water bottle. Slide the bottle into the compartment and close the door. The empty bottle alert will turn off once the bottle is correctly installed and water fills the internal tanks.
5. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a grounded electrical outlet.
6. Initial Water Flow: Before turning on heating or cooling, dispense at least 1 liter of water from each spout (hot, cold, room temperature) to ensure all air is purged from the system. This prevents dry heating of the hot tank.
