Preparing Your Water Dispenser For Use; How Your Cooling Compartment Works - Sunbeam 101 User Manual

P R E PARING YOUR WATER DISPENSER FOR USE
1) Make sure that the water dispenser is not plugged into the electrical outlet.
2) Before placing water bottle on unit, be sure that the drain plug on the back is tightly fastened.
3) Hold the water bottle vertically and upside down (over water dispenser) and place the water bottle into the no-
spill bottle receptacle. Apply slight pressure in order to pierce the bottle cap with the spigot. It is not advisable to
make any adjustments to the thermostat settings before the water dispenser and bottled water are warmed up to
normal room temperature. This unit accepts two, three or five gallon water bottles with pierceable sealed caps.
4 ) Open the taps to let the air out, until the water starts to flow. When this happens, release the taps.
5) Plug the water dispenser into a grounded power outlet and turn the power switches on.
6) If the water dispenser is brought in from outside in the winter time, give it a few hours to warm up to room
temperature before plugging it in. The thermostat setting may be affected by the coldness of the water dispenser
itself or the bottled water.
• The refrigeration thermostat is factory set between 7ºC and 8ºC (44.6ºF and 46.4ºF).
• The hot water thermostat is factory set between 88ºC and 89ºC (190.4ºF and 192.2ºF).
• The hot and cold indicator lights will be on while the system is working. Once the desired
temperatures have been reached, the lights will go off.
• If you choose to set the cold water thermostat to the lowest setting, it may take over one hour to cool the water
down to the coldest setting.
• Before the water dispenser leaves the factory, the thermostat is set properly. It is not advisable to
adjust the thermostat when using the water dispenser for the first time.
NOTE: When your water dispenser is in operation there is a small amount of water in the passage
between the water tanks and the taps. This water is not controlled by the cold, hot or room
temperature settings. We recommend that in order to fully enjoy the desired temperature
setting, you should eliminate this small amount, 200ml - 400ml (6.76 fl.oz - 13.52 fl.oz) using
a small glass container.
HOW YOUR COOLING COMPA RTMENT WORKS
THE COOLING COMPARTMENT IS DESIGNED FOR EVEN COOLING.
Your water dispenser has two thermostats located at the back of the unit.
One thermostat controls the water and the other controls the cooling compartment. To start
the compressor, a signal from either of the two thermostats is required.
Your water dispenser also has three power switches located at the back of the unit. One
switch controls the hot water, one switch controls the cooling compartment, and the other
switch controls the cold water and cooling compartment.
Both the cold water thermostat and the cooling compartment thermostat are factory set
between 2 and 4. To adjust the temperature of the water and/or the cooling compartment,
turn the corresponding thermostat clockwise to set the temperature colder, a n d
counterclockwise to set the temperature warmer. When the temperature of the fridge or the
water is set lower, the compressor will take a longer time to reach the set temperature than
if it is set higher, but this will not affect the life of the compressor.
This cooling compartment is not a frost-free unit. Minor ice build-up in the compartment is
normal and expected.
Warning: If the water and or refrigeration thermostat is set at 6
for an extended period of time, there is a possibility of
freezing in the water tank or in the interior of the
cooling compartment.
