often a plastic taste upon the initial start-up of the unit. To remove this

Q: What is the spike that goes into the bottle?
A:Glacier Bay® water dispensers feature a ‘piercing valve’ as part of the

incorporate a sell-piercing membrane In the bottle cap for this specific

feature). If your water bottle does not incorporate this feature, the entire
bottle cap must then be removed to eliminate possible damage to the piercing
valve.
