OPERATION

Ambient temperature
Temperature 0-35°C
Atmosphere 86-106 kpa
VOLTAGE:115V/60HZ
Position the water cooler on the horizontal, structurally sound ground. Leave an adequate open space (10-20 cm) behind the water cooler for good ventilation.
When using the bottles holding ultra-pure water, distilled water or space water with the so-called clever lid, tear off the hygienic labels on the lid. Place the bottles at the intake, then the core of water guard will automatically open the valve and seal it in the meantime, when moving the bottles, the valve will also seal automatically to avoid any possible oozing.
Push the hot water valves, bubbles are generated inside the bottle, indicating that water is flowing into hot water and cold water tanks, keep pressing the hot water valve until water flows out, dispensing cold water required need no particular adjustment.
Do not connect the electrical power plug until water comes out of the hot water tap.
After water is flowing out from the hot tap, then we can open the switch at the back side.
Turn the heating switch on, the red indicator is on and the heating system starts working. When the hot water comes up (86-95°C) or so, the red light goes off, the heating system stops working, and it is on a warm keeping status.
When the hot water temperature is lower than 85°C, the heating system will resume working again automatically.
Turn on the cooling switch, the green indicator is on and the cooling system starts working. When the cold water falls down to 5-10°C (for compressor-cooling), the green light goes off, the cooling system stops working, and it is on a cold keeping status.
When the cold water temperature goes up to a set degree, the cooling system will resume working again atomically.
Since the temperature has already been adjusted before leaving the factory, it is unnecessary for customers to set the temperature.
If device is not applied for a long time, after the hot water cools down, please remove the power plug and revolve the drain the rest water in the hot tank then tighten the cap open the cold water tap to drain the rest water in the cold tank.
If there is no water flowing from cooling tap, please shut down the cooling switch until there is water flowing out.

MAINTENANCE

Remove power plugs or disconnect from the mains before performing any maintenance or servicing the product.
Never use detergent or chemicals harmful to health to clean the water tank.
Do not directly spray water on the surface of the product. Wipe the front and back of the product with water-soaked soft cloth.
If dust of other foreign substance has accumulated on the condenser, wipe off with water soaked soft cloth.
After cleaning the product, completely dry it. Fill the water to the tanks until waters comes out of the hot water tap, then connect the electric power plug. If the surface of the electric heater in the hot water tank is deposited by water deposition, heating capacity will decrease. Fill hot water tank with aqueous solution of 2% edible citric acid and keep it for about two hours then cleaning. If the problems can not be solved contact your dealer or the service centre of our company.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE

Problem	Possible cause
The unit does not operate	Not plugged in The circuit breaker tripped or blown fuse.
The unit is not cold enough	Check to be sure the cold switch on the back is on. The water cooler does not have the correct clearance.
Hot water is not hot enough	Check to be sure the hot switch on the back is on.
Compressor turns on and off frequently	The room temperature is hotter than normal. The water cooler does not have the correct clearance.
Vibration	Check to assure that the water cooler is level
The unit seems to make to much noise	The rating noise may come from flow of the refrigerant, which is normal. As each cycles ends, you may hear gurgling. Sound cause by the flow of refrigerant in your water cooler. Contraction and expansion of inside walls may cause popping and cracking noises. The water cooler is not level.
