ELECTRICAL SAFETY

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and injury to persons or pro p e rt y. Read all instructions before using any appliance.
• DANGER: Do not bend or manipulate the power cord. Do not use power plug for ON/OFF operation.
• Do not let hot water touch bare skin. Keep combustible materials such as furniture, bedding, pillows,
clothes, and/or papers away from the back of the unit.
• Do not operate this, or any other appliance with a damaged cord. No other appliance should be plugged
into the same outlet. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into the receptacle.
• Do not run cord under/over carpeting or other heat insulators. Do not cover the cord. Keep cord away
from traffic areas, and do not submerge in water.
• We do not recommend the use of an extension cord as it may overheat and cause a risk of fire. If you
must use an extension cord, use No. 14 AWG minimum size and rated not less than 1875 watts.
• Unplug the water dispenser before cleaning or making repairs. In order to avoid potential electric shock,
do not clean the machine with water - instead use a soft damp cloth.
• Do not plug your water dispenser into the power outlet or turn the power switches on, when the water
dispenser is empty.
• Exercise caution and use reasonable supervision when the appliance is use by or near children.
• Do not use your water dispenser outdoors. Place the water dispenser away from direct sunlight and make
sure that there is at least 6"/15cm of space between the back of your unit and the wall. Keep a minimum
distance of 2"/5cm on each side of your unit free. Do not move the unit roughly. Do not let unit incline
over 45°.
• Do not use this product to dispense anything other than water.
• Do not flick the power switches quickly on and off. The resulting power surges may damage your water
dispenser.
