HOT WATER DISPENSER CARE
NOTE:
It is not necessary to turn off the hot water dispenser each night to conserve energy. The hot water dispenser uses
approximately 10 to 19 kilowatt-hours of energy per month when heating 7 to 8 cups of water per day.
Prepare Hot Water Dispenser for Nonuse
If the hot water dispenser will not be used for 2 to 30 days, set the Temperature Control to the Off position to conserve energy.
