Frequently Asked Questions - ACQUA BT 100 IMETEC

How do I install the ACQUA BT 100 water dispenser?

Place the dispenser on a flat, stable surface near a power outlet. Connect the power cord, then fill the cold and hot water tanks with potable water. Wait 10 minutes for the water to heat/cool before use.

Can I use bottled water with this dispenser?

Yes, you can use bottled water or tap water. If using tap water, ensure it is drinkable and change it regularly.

How do I clean the water dispenser?

Unplug the device. Remove and wash the drip tray with mild soap. Descale the tanks every 3 months using a descaling solution or vinegar. Rinse thoroughly before reuse.

Why is the hot water not hot enough?

Ensure the hot water tank is filled and the heater switch is ON. It may take up to 15 minutes to reach full temperature. If still not hot, check the power supply or contact support.

Why is there a strange noise coming from the dispenser?

A slight gurgling or humming is normal due to water flow and cooling compressor. If loud or persistent, check if the unit is level and the drip tray is properly placed.

How do I activate the child safety lock?

For the hot water tap, press the child lock button (usually marked with a lock icon) before dispensing. This prevents accidental hot water release.

What should I do if the dispenser leaks?

Check the drip tray and tanks for overfilling. Ensure the water tanks are properly sealed. If leaking from the bottom, inspect internal hoses – contact service if needed.

Can I dispense cold water immediately after plugging in?

Cold water takes about 30-45 minutes to reach optimal temperature. You can use room temperature water immediately by pressing the cold tap briefly.

How do I descale the dispenser?

Mix a descaling solution (or 1 part white vinegar to 3 parts water) and fill both tanks. Run the hot water for 5 minutes, then let it sit for 30 minutes. Empty, rinse with fresh water twice, and refill.

Where can I get spare parts or service?

Contact Imetec customer service or visit the official website. Use an authorized service center for repairs. Keep your purchase receipt for warranty claims.
