Troubleshooting

No water dispensing from spouts

This could be caused by the water bottle being empty. Please replace the bottle and allow 5-10 minutes for the water cooler tanks to fill up. Allow the proper time for the water to heat and cool.

This could be the result of the bottle supporter (#1) being blocked. Please lift the bottle from the bottle supporter with two hands. Check to ensure that the seal or possible paper from the bottle is not causing a blockage. Install the bottle again.

Water is leaking from the bottle supporter (#1)

This could be the cause of a broken bottle. Please check to make sure that the bottle is not broken and if so please replace it.

This could also be caused by a misaligned seal. Using two hands please remove the bottle. Please remove the bottle supporter (#1) and ensure that the seal is aligned correctly around the edge.

Noisy operation

This could be caused by the machine not sitting flat. Please make sure that the machine is placed on a placid and solid surface.

Water not dispensing at a hot or cold temperature

This could be caused by an over consumption of water in a short period of time causing the tanks to empty. Please allow 5 to 10 minutes for the water cooler tanks to refill. Allow the proper time for the water to heat and cool.

This could be caused by an interruption in the power supply. Please ensure that the power cord is connected to an outlet. Please make sure that the heating (#12) and cooling (#11) switches are in the on (l) position.
