Using this soap dispenser is easy. First, make sure you've bought the “6 - SOAP - MFT” Soap Multi - Feed Tank if you're using the Multi - Feed system. Fill the soap tank through the top - deck fill port hub. Wave your hand under the spout, and the touch - free dual sensors will activate to dispense soap. When it comes to power, you can either use a Battery pack (4xAA alkaline) or an A/C Adapter. The indicator light at the base of the spout will show power status, activation, and when the soap is running low. As for maintenance, keep it clean with a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the Brushed Bronze finish. Also, check the anti - rotational gasket/washer regularly to ensure it's in good condition. Remember, this is a non - returnable item, so make sure it meets your needs before purchase.
