• Remove empty bottle.
• Empty the reservoir by draining the cold water faucet.
• Add one half a teaspoon of bleach to one gallon of tap water and pour into reservoir.
• Wash reservoir thoroughly with diluted bleach solution and let stand for five minutes.
• Drain bleach solution from reservoir through the cold faucet.
• Rinse reservoir with clear water several times, draining water through the faucet(s).  Continue rinsing until no chlorine taste remains.
• Place new bottle on cooler and plug cord into electrical outlet.
