1. Desembale a unidade: Retire cuidadosamente o bebedouro da embalagem. Verifique se há algum dano.
2. Posicionamento: Place the dispenser on a flat, stable, and level surface. Ensure there is adequate ventilation around the unit, especially at the back where the cooling components are located.
3. Limpeza Inicial: Before first use, wipe down the exterior of the unit and the drip tray with a damp pano.
4. Instale a garrafa de água: Remove the cap from a 3 or 5-gallon water bottle. Carefully lift the bottle and place it upright onto the support collar on top of the dispenser. Ensure the bottle is seated firmly and water begins to flow into the unit.
5. Preparar o sistema: Place a cup under the cold water spigot and press the dispensing lever until water flows smoothly. Repeat this process for the hot water spigot (without pressing the child safety lock initially, just the lever, to ensure water fills the hot tank). This removes air from the system.

7. Ativar aquecimento/resfriamento: Locate the hot and cold power switches on the back of the unit. Turn them to the 'ON' position. The indicator lights on the front will illuminate.
