STEP 4 - Connect Cold Water Supply
Refer to installation instructions included with faucet if necessary.
Cold water is supplied to the tank through the faucet. Connect the cold water line to the faucet using
the 1/4" supply line and the quick-connect fitting.
Make sure the cold water connecting to the faucet is filtered. It is suggested that a shut-off
valve be installed between this connection and the cold water supply line.
Another common installation method is with the use of a saddle valve if a saddle valve is used; follow
the manufacturer's installation guides.
Connection to a hot water supply is not recommended. If a water filter is used, water pressure
to the tank should not drop below 240kPa or 35psi (2.4 bar).

STEP 5 - Check for Leaks
1. Open valve in water line.
2. Turn faucet on (push to unlock) to fill tank (about1 minute). When tank is full, water will flow
from faucet.
3. Turn faucet off. Check for leaks.
STEP 6 - Prepare for Power
Double check the thermostat control dial is in the OFF position. Thermostat control dial controls the
water temperature, not the water flow or delivery.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
This dispenser is equipped with a Self re-setting thermal fuse
Turn the thermostat to OFF position and fill tank with water before plugging the power cord from the
tank into an electrical outlet.
If tank is empty and the thermostat set in the ON position when the power cord is
Connected, the self re-setting fuse in the heater control will disconnect the current to the heater after
approximately one minute, thus protecting the heater from a "dry start" failure. The fuse in the heater
control will self-reset after approximately 1/2 hour. Turn on the water supply to the tank and continue
the installation.
Continued misuse will cause damage to the appliance and is detectible thus, voiding the warranty.
