Whynter T-1A - Manual (Page 5)

T-1 Version 08/05 5
Preparing the Appliance for Use
Unpack the appliance and place it on a sturdy level surface. It is recommended
that the packaging is retained for secure movement/transport.
The appliance operates at its optimum performance in a normal room
temperature of 68ºF / 20ºC.
The refrigerant inside the appliance must have time to settle following
transportation and a minimum stabilization period of three hours is recommended
prior to switching on the appliance.
There are two ventilation grilles in the appliance cover, one in the lower left hand
side and one in the upper rear panel. To ensure correct appliance operation
these grilles must not be obstructed. A gap of at least 10 cm. (4 inches) must be
maintained between the appliance sides, rear and top and other appliances or
walls.
Remove the Water Tank (the lower of the two removable drawers on the
appliance front face) and pour fresh drinkable mains tap water into the tank
through the larger rectangular hole in the Water Tank lid and fill the tank up to the
MAX line of the Water Level Indicator on the front right of the water tank.
Commercially bottled still drinking water may be used if desired. Replace the
Water Tank fully home into its recess.
Ensure the Ice Cube Drawer is fully home in its recess and the Cover with
Window is closed as the freezing element gets very cold during operation.
For the T-1A, please make sure to use a ¾ inch fitting for the mains water inlet to
the drinkable mains water supply. Please ensure that the hose connections are
tightly connected to water mains and to the rear of the unit to avoid any leakage.
Note: If a replacement hose is required, a food grade hose is recommended.
