GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For your protection, the Waring™ Commercial Hot Water Dispenser is equipped with a 3-conductor cord set that has a molded 3-prong grounding-type plug and should be used in combination with a properly connected grounding-type outlet, as shown in Figure 1. If a grounding-type outlet is not available, an adapter, shown in Figure 2, may be obtained so that a 2-slot wall outlet can be used with a 3-prong plug. Referring to Figure 3, the adapter must be grounded by attaching its grounding lug under the screw of the outlet cover plate.

CAUTION: Before using an adapter, it must be determined that the outlet cover plate screw is properly grounded. If in doubt, consult a licensed electrician. Never use an adapter unless you are sure it is properly grounded.
NOTE: Use of an adapter is not permitted in Canada.

    SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
    A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
    If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

  4.  Slide the drip tray into slots underneath.

WATER HOOKUP
NOTE: The hot water dispenser must be installed in compliance with applicable federal, state, and/or local plumbing codes having jurisdiction. This product requires an approved backflow prevention water device, such as a double-check valve, to be installed between the machine and the water supply. Incoming pressure should be greater than 30 psi and not more than 70 psi.
NOTE: Connecting the hot water dispenser to a warm water supply will speed up heating and recovery times.

  1. The hot water dispenser is equipped with a ¾” GHT (garden hose thread) flare water inlet fitting, which is located on the back of the unit.
  2. Provide a shutoff valve and union in the supply line near the hot water dispenser.
  3. The minimum inlet pressure at the hot water dispenser should be 30 psi and the maximum inlet pressure is recommended at 70 psi.
  4. Turn on the water supply line and check for leaks.

NOTE: A filtering system is recommended to remove odors and inhibit lime and scale buildup in the unit.
NOTE: In areas with extremely hard water, a water softener must be installed in order to prevent mineral deposits that may cause malfunctioning of the equipment.
ELECTRICAL HOOKUP
NOTE: This equipment must be installed in compliance with applicable federal, state, and/or local electrical codes having jurisdiction. Do not use extension cords. Make sure that the outlet is properly grounded.

  1. Check to rate marking on the hot water dispenser nameplate to be sure electric lines match the voltage, phase, and amperage requirements of the hot water dispenser. Select the proper cord and cord grip for an electrical rating of the hot water dispenser.

Helpful Hints
Why use Night Mode?
When you need hot water at the start of business, but do not want your machine on full power during non-business hours. Utilize Night Mode, an energy-saving feature that will maintain a water temperature of 158°F/70°C during non- business, and heat to a full set temperature at the time you set.
What time should I set Night Mode to?
Once Night Mode turns off and the machine is re-energized, it will take approximately 1 hour to reach 205° (MAX), so set the time forNight Mode for approximately 1 hour before you will need hot water.
Can I change the temperature in Night Mode?
158°F/70°C is the fixed temperature and cannot be adjusted.
