using your HotCup
™
water dispenser
Before using your HotCup
™
water dispenser for the first time
•
Remove your HotCup
™
water dispenser carefully from the box. Remove any
packaging and promotional material and position it on a dry, level, secure work
surface away from the edge.
• Make sure that the re-set button at the rear of the appliance is pressed in.
•
Follow the instructions below on using your HotCup
™
water dispenser and discard the
first full tank of boiled water by cycling the appliance. This will remove any residues
that may remain from the manufacturing process.
Using your HotCup
™
water dispenser
Always position your HotCup
™
water dispenser in such a way that the start
button cannot be accidentally operated especially by children.
If water has been left in your HotCup
™
water dispenser for a number of days, fill
the water reservoir to the MAX marking and discard all of the water by cycling the
appliance as described below.
1. Lift the lid. Fill the water reservoir with cold water using a suitable jug. The water level
should be between the MIN and MAX markings.
2.
Close the lid, then plug your HotCup
™
water dispenser into a mains supply socket.
3.
Position the drip tray according to the height of your cup:
•
For a tall cup, place the drip tray in the lower position by guiding it onto the
magnetised plate on the HotCup
™
water dispenser until secured in place.
•
For a shorter cup, turn the drip tray upside down and hook the lip of the tray into
the positioning slot. The magnet will guide the drip tray into the correct position.
4.
Place the drip tray inner and the stainless steel drip tray cover onto the drip tray.
5.
Position your cup with a tea bag, coffee, sugar, etc. below the dispensing nozzle.
Never operate your HotCup
™
water dispenser without a cup or suitable container
placed below the dispensing nozzle.
6.
Turn the dispensing control to the required setting. The control adjusts the quantity
of boiling water dispensed by your HotCup
™
water dispenser. For smaller cups like
teacups, set the control towards the setting; for larger cups like coffee mugs, set
the control towards the
setting. If you are not sure which setting to use, it’s best to
use a lower setting until you gain experience using your HotCup
™
water dispenser.
7. Press the start button. The water reservoir, dispensing nozzle, and the window under
the stop button will light up. If the start button doesn’t start the appliance, check that
the re-set button at the rear of the appliance is pressed in.
8.
The selected quantity of boiling water will be dispensed into the cup and then stop.
Alternatively, press the stop button to only dispense the amount of water you require.
Always keep your HotCup
™
water dispenser topped up with water (between the MIN and
MAX markings). That way you’ll ensure that it’s always ready to use and don’t forget,
unlike an ordinary kettle, this will have no effect on the energy your HotCup
™
water
dispenser uses.
