illuminate constantly when the desired temperature is

reached.

208.4°F: Black tea, some green teas, hot water for

oatmeal or other hot instant food, some coffees

automatically switch into keep-warm mode. While in

keep warm mode the red boil light will turn off and the

green keep-warm light will illuminate. When the green

keep-warm light illuminates constantly, the product is

regulating the water temperature at the preset

6. There are three ways to dispense water from this

product:

• AUTO DISPENSING. In the front panel, press the

“unlock” button once. The yellow UNLOCK indicator light

will turn on. Pressing the “Dispense” button at this time

will cause the product to automatically dispense water

from the water outlet.

Caution: If the dispense button is not selected within 10 seconds after selecting the unlock button, the appliance will automatically revert back to the lock position. The auto dispensing function will not operate if the product is not connected to power.

Note: The unlock button is a safety feature meant to prevent accidental dispensing of hot water from the product through the pressing of a single button.

• MANUAL DISPENSING: On the upper lid, switch the

pump lock to the “unlock” position. Then push the “water

pump lid” to dispense some water. Allow the pump lid to

return to its default position and repeat if more water is

required.

Note: Manual dispensing can be performed even when the product is not connected to power. However, without power, the product will not be able to keep the water at the desired keep-warm temperature indefinitely.

• CUP SWITCH: In the front panel, press the “unlock”

button once. The yellow UNLOCK indicator light will turn

on. While holding a cup under the water outlet, push the

cup up against the cup switch under the upper lid to

dispense water. The product will automatically dispense

water from the water outlet while the cup switch is

pressed.

• Caution: If the cup switch is not pressed within 10

seconds after selecting the unlock button, the appliance

will automatically revert back to the lock position. The

cup switch function will not operate if the product is not

connected to power.

7. After the desired keep-warm temperature is reached,

the product will maintain this temperature. To reboil the

water at any time, press “reboil” button once. The green

keep-warm light will turn off and the boil indicator light

will come on. After reboil has been completed, the keep

warm indicator light will turn on again.

CAUTION: Reboil will not function if there is insufficient water inside. Pressing the reboil button immediately after the water has just reached the boiling level will also have no effect as the water is already at 212°F.
