DRAIN HOSE AND CONTAINER
Before using the beverage dispenser, make sure the drain hose and container are properly installed.
1. Attach the hose to the drain.
2. Attach the container to the hose.
3. Empty the container when it becomes full.
4. Rinse both the hose and container before reattaching to the beverage dispenser.
FINAL PREPARATION
•All stainless steel parts should be wiped with hot soapy water. If buildup occurs, do not use steel wool, abrasive cloths,
cleaners, or powders. If it is necessary to scrape stainless steel to remove encrusted materials, soak with hot, wet cloths
to loosen the material, then use a wood or nylon scraper. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other metal tool to
scrape stainless steel; scratches are almost impossible to remove.
GENERAL TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS
•After making a temperature change, allow 24 hours for your unit to reach a new temperature setting.
•The motor will start and stop often. It must do this to maintain the temperature you select.
•Unplug the appliance before working on anything with the electrical system.
•Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming, or mopping near the front of the unit. Damage to the grill can occur.
•For all cleaning, mix 2 tablespoons baking soda with 1 quart warm water or use mild soapy and water solution. Do not
use strong cleaners or scouring powder or pads.
•Keep your appliance out of direct sunlight.
•Do not splash or spray water on or under the unit.
•Clean you appliance’s condenser periodically to maintain proper cooling performance.
