Cleaning Cold Water Tank
Regular cleaning of cold water tank is recommended every 3 months or whenever
an off-taste is detected to ensure optimal performance and water quality. Follow
these steps to clean the water tank:
Removing Existing Water:
Turn off the switches on the back of the machine.
Disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet.
Gently rotate the dispenser 90° in either direction and carefully move it away
from the wall.
Disconnect the water container from the suction pump.
Place a small bucket with a capacity of at least 1 gallon under the machine’s
drain plug.
Remove the drain cap and rubber to allow water to be dispensed into the
bucket.
Reassemble the drain rubber and cap securely after draining.
In a clean bucket, mix 3 tablespoons of unscented household bleach or vinegar
with 1 gallon of tap water to create a sanitizing solution. Allow the solution to sit
for 30 minutes.
WARNING: Do not use strong bleach or harmful detergents.
Using a soft cloth soaked in the sanitizing solution, thoroughly wipe the water
container cover and the area surrounding the two faucets.
Sanitizing the Cover of Water Container and Faucets:
Sanitizing Storage Tanks
Fill an empty water container with the prepared sanitizing solution.
Insert the suction pipe into the empty container.
Carefully insert the empty container into the designated space in the machine.
Close the cabinet door securely.
Plug the unit into a nearby power source.
Turn on the switch located at the back of the machine.
Fill the empty storage tanks with the sanitizing solution by double pressing the
cold icon button, then wait for it to dispense water, once water came out of the
cold faucet that is an indication that the tank is filled.
Allow the solution to remain in the tank for 10 minutes, then turn off the switch
at the back and unplug the power cord from the outlet.
Place a sturdy bucket beneath the dispenser's drain cap and drain the sanitizing
solution from the tanks.
Reinstall the drain cap securely after draining.
Fill a water container with tap water and insert the suction pipe into the
container, ensuring that the extraction pipe securely connected.
Insert the water container securely to the designated space in the machine.
Close the cabinet door securely.

Fill the empty storage tanks with the tap water by double pressing the cold
icon button, then wait for it to dispense water, once water came out of the cold
faucet that is an indication that the tank is filled.
After 10 minutes, turn off the switch and unplug the power cord from the outlet.
Prepare a bucket and place it beneath the drain plug.
Remove the drain stopper to drain any remaining water from the tanks.
Reinstall the drain cap securely after draining.
The coffee tea bar is now ready for use. Simply plug it into a power source and
turn on the switch.
If a vinegar or chlorine taste is still detected, repeat the process by adding
another 1 gallon of clean water, drain the tanks, and retest the water quality.
Return the unit to its original position, replace the water container, and follow the
installation instructions provided in this manual under Installation Instructions.
Before performing any maintenance or service, please ensure that the power
switch is turned off, the power plug is unplugged, and keep a safe distance
from charged objects.
Avoid cleaning the water container with detergents or chemicals that may be
harmful to health.
After wringing dry, use a damp soft cloth to gently wipe off any dust or foreign
matter on the outer surface of the product, taking care to prevent water from
entering the interior.
It is recommended to conduct descaling every three months for optimal per-
formance
Other Maintenance Safety Precautions
Periodic Descaling
After using the machine for a period of time, a layer of scale may form on the
bottom of the kettle and the surface of the temperature sensor, which can affect the
accuracy of the temperature displayed on the display board.
Calcium oxide is a natural calcareous sediment that forms when heating water.
Although it is harmless to the human body, it can cause an unpleasant taste if it
mixes into drinking water.
Under normal use, it is recommended to descale the machine two to six times per
year. If you notice that it takes longer to boil water or if the auto shut down occurs
immediately while boiling, it indicates that descaling is needed.
Fill the kettle to the recomended water level (720mL) with a mixture of vinegar
and water in the proportion of 1:2.
Turn on the power switch and let the machine work until the water boils.
Leave the mixture in the kettle for 2 hours, then pour it out and rinse the inside
of the kettle with water until it is clean.

Troubleshooting
During use, you may encounter the following situations, which are considered normal.
Please continue to use the product with confidence:
Fill the kettle with water again and boil it to remove any lingering vinegar.
Repeat this step as necessary.
Minor noise from the heating pipe during the heating process.
When heating without water, the power connection of the electric heating tube
will automatically shut down and emit a series of "Di, Di, Di..." sounds. The
digital display will show E2 symbol indicating dry burning. If water is not added
immediately, the machine will automatically shut down, ensuring safety and
prolonging the service life of the electric kettle.
If no operation is performed, the machine will automatically shut down to
reduce issues caused by long-term power usage. This helps save energy and
prolong the service life of the electric kettle.
If you experience any issues during use, please bring the product to an authorized
maintenance center. Before sending it for repair, you can check the following list of
common reasons and try to resolve the issue:
