The FlavorShot by SureShot™ dispenser is designed for easy plug and play
installation by the customer. The dispenser’s unique patent-pending pump
system requires no calibration at installation.
To Uncrate:
1. Position the box with the “This Side Up” arrow pointing upward.
2. Turn the dispenser box on its side.
3. Remove the packaging material at the bottom.
4. Install legs by screwing each leg into the bottom of the dispenser. Tighten by
hand until snug.
5. Turn the dispenser box to the upright position.
6. Remove the cardboard box by lifting it up and off. Do not lift the dispenser by
the door.
7. Remove the plastic protective covering from the stainless steel exterior of the
dispenser, by peeling it off. To peel, hold the dispenser firmly at the top and
peel from top to bottom.
8. Remove the plastic protective covering from the catch tray and attach the
catch tray to the dispenser.
To Install:
1. Place the dispenser where it will best serve the customer’s operation.
•Make sure that counters, platforms, or shelves are strong enough to
support the weight of the dispenser and full containers of product. The
empty dispenser weighs 45 pounds.
•Place the dispenser at a serving height so that staff drawing product can
operate the buttons as well as easily place and remove cups.
2. Do not block the vents at the rear of the dispenser. The vents must be free
and open to ensure proper ventilation and to prevent over-heating and
damage to the system.
3. Do not place the dispenser too close to a source of heat or moisture.
4. Maintain air space on all sides.
5. The dispenser should be placed on a level surface or leveled by adjusting the
legs. Use a bubble level to ensure the dispenser is level. Ensure that the
dispenser is level or slightly higher in the back. Do not allow the dispenser to
be tilted backwards.
NOTE: Do not remove the legs from the dispenser or allow the dispenser to sit
flat on the counter. Make sure the adjustable 4-inch legs at the four corners of
the bottom of the dispenser are in place. Note that these legs are adjustable and
they are secure even though they may appear to be loose.
Removal of the legs automatically voids the Warranty.
CAUTION: Before starting the dispenser, make certain that all Installation
instructions have been followed.

7
To Start:
1. Plug the power cord into the proper 110/120 VAC electrical outlet.
2. Turn the Power Switch “ON”. The power switch is recessed on the front
lower left side of the dispenser.
3. Make sure the dispenser door is closed.
4. The LCD window will display “Wait” and then a series of 5 dots will appear.
This indicates that all 5 tank pumps are operating. If the symbol “^” appears
anywhere in this row of dots, it indicates that pump has failed to register. For
example, “Wait ..^..” indicates the pump for tank 3 is not registered and
pump 3 will not dispense. See Troubleshooting, Page 49.
Otherwise, “Waiting …..” indicates all pumps are communicating.
5. Push one of the flavor buttons and then a size button on the front panel and
listen to hear the pump cycle. This confirms that the dispenser is operating.

8
2. TO OPERATE
•Flavor buttons on the front panel are labeled and are in the same order as
the labeled flavor tanks inside the dispenser.
•Flavor tanks sit in pumps. Tanks have twist-off, tethered caps.
•Tanks must be primed after the initial filling, after cleaning, and whenever
a tank has been emptied. To prime, see Instructions on page 9.
•Tanks must be reset after filling, to allow the microcontroller to track
volume accurately as the tank empties.
•Tanks may be refilled as desired. Always refill to the “Full” line near the
top of the tank. Always Reset the system after a tank has been refilled. To
reset, see instructions on page 11.
Clean Before First Use of the Dispenser

TO REFILL & RESET FLAVOR TANKS
To Refill Tank, when product is low
When the product in a flavor tank reaches the “low” level, the red indicator
light at the top of the Flavor button will flash to show that it is time to refill the
tank. When the flashing begins, approximately 200 ml of flavor remain in the
tank. Once the Indicator Light begins to flash, the tank can be refilled with a 750
ml bottle of flavor.
When approximately 100 ml of flavor are left in the tank, the Indicator Light
will turn to solid red, to indicate that the tank must be refilled and reset before
dispensing can continue.
When a product tank has been refilled, the tank level must be reset to
begin the countdown to the low level indication. Refill must be followed by Reset.
To Reset, see page 11.
TO REFILL:
1. Open the dispenser door.

•Flavor tanks hold one full
bottle of flavoring when the
tank has reached the “low
level” indicator, to enable fast
reloading and resetting of the
dispenser.
•Dispensers must be refilled to
either the Reset-Full or Reset-
Low Fill levels. Refilling to any
