SAFETY INSTRUCTION
WARNING!
Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following:
This water dispenser must be properly installed and
located in accordance with these instructions before
it is used.
Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the
outside of the dispenser. The dispenser could tip
over and get damaged and seriously injure
somebody.
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other
appliance.
Unplug the water dispenser before cleaning and
making repairs.
Note: We strongly recommend that any servicing
be performed by a qualified individual. If your
WHYNTER water dispenser requires servicing or
you have technical questions, please contact
our service department.
Do not plug in the power cord or turn on the power
switches when the water dispenser is empty.
Never turn the water dispenser upside-down or tilt it
more than 45º.
Wipe up any water spills immediately after loading
or unloading water bottles.
WARNING: Do not use with water that is
microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality
without adequate disinfection.
This water dispenser heats water to approximately
90ºC / 194ºF. Water temperatures above 52ºC/
125ºF can cause severe burns. Please operate the
water dispenser carefully.
Do not use this dispenser to dispense anything other
than water.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your
personal responsibility and obligation to have it
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
WARNING- improper use of the grounding
plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
This appliance must be grounded. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing
an escape wire for the electric current.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the
third (ground) prong from the power cord.
Do not use an adapter plug with this appliance.
This appliance is equipped with a power cord
which contains a grounding wire with a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance. If
the power cord is too short, have a qualified
electrician or service technician install an outlet near
the appliance.
For best operation, plug the appliance into its own
electrical outlet on a dedicated circuit to prevent
flickering of lights, blowing of fuse, or tripping of circuit
breaker.
Consult a qualified electrician or service
technician if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if doubt
exists as to whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
