OPERATION

Before Use

General Notes
• If the appliance is not used for a long period,
dispense over 500 ml water from the hot, cold
and ambient temperature water tap respectively
before using the appliance. If water has been left
for a long period, bacteria can be generated and
water taste can be changed.
• When you fill the cup with water, place it close to
the water tap. Water may splash out of the cup
and fall to the floor.
• Open the water supply valve. The appliance
operates normally when water is supplied
properly at a consistent pressure that is within
the operating requirement.
• When heating or freezing water, white sediment
may appear due to minerals in water. These
minerals are harmless to humans.
• It is very important to replace the filter
periodically in order to drink clean water. If an
expired filter is used, the water taste may be
changed and the filtration function may be
degraded.
• Do not use filtered water to replace water in a
humidifier or fishbowl. Leaving filtered water as
it is for a long period of time may multiply the
bacteria.
• Use the appliance only after closing the
appliance cover completely. Otherwise, insects
or other foreign substances may get in.
• Press the Volume button on the appliance to
dispense hot water, cold water, or ambient
water in 3 different volume (120 ml, 250 ml, 500
ml). The amount of water that comes out may
vary depending on the water pressure and flow
rate of tap water supplied to each house.
• If cold or ambient water is dispensed
immediately after hot water is dispensed, the
water temperature for the first cup may be
different.
Notes for Hot Water
• Hot water is heated by instant induction heating.
It will take several seconds for the water to heat
up and make noise.
• The flow rate of hot water is less than cold or
ambient water.
• Due to remaining water in the hose, the first cup
of water may be not hot enough:
- When hot water is dispensed immediately
after changing the temperature of hot water.
- When hot water is dispensed immediately
after cold water or ambient water is
dispensed.
• Place the cup near the water tap as close as
possible when dispensing hot water. Small
bursts of water and steam are emitted because
the cold water is rapidly heated.
• If hot water is not used for 5 seconds, the hot
water function will be automatically turned off to
prevent burns.
WARNING
• Steam may be created when water supply valve
is locked or when repeating the actions below.
- Repeatedly dispense hot water and stop
dispensing hot water
• Do not connect the equipment that reduces
pressure to the hot water tank hose of the
appliance.
• Children should be supervised when children
use the appliance, otherwise the children may
get burned by pressing the button for hot water
on the top of the appliance.
CAUTION
• If you use ambient or cold water immediately
after dispensing hot water, the water may still be
hot or warm due to the water remaining in the
dispenser pipe. You should be careful not to get
burned.
