Thank you for purchasing a Vitapur® Water Dispenser. Please read the enclosed
operating instructions carefully and retain this booklet for future reference. We have carefully
engineered your Vitapur® Water Dispenser to give you years of enjoyment and trouble free operation.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Your Vitapur® water dispenser is designed with a special "safety" feature (float switch
mechanism) that controls activation/operation of the "Kettle Feature" hot water tank heating system. If no water is
present and/or low water levels are detected inside the internal reservoir system, activation/operation of the hot water
heating system is not possible. Likewise, if the hot water heating is operational and water is being drawn simultaneously
causing water levels to drop below safe levels, hot water tank operation is automatically terminated until normal water
levels are restored, at which time you must "manually" re-activate the hot water heating system by pressing the kettle
feature (red) button. NOTE: Operation of the cold water system is not affected by this safety feature.
WARNING: This Product can expose you to chemicals including Diisononyl phthalate (DINP) which is known to
the State of California to cause cancer and Di-isodecyl phthalates (DIDP) which is known to the State of California
to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.p65Warnings.ca.gov
