Mistakes Most Beginners Make
Everyone makes these at first. Knowing them in advance means you get to skip the learning-curve tax.
- Filling it with ultra-thick soap. Very thick soap strains the little pump in it. Thin it slightly with water or choose a standard liquid soap.
- Placing it in the splash zone. Constant water spray on the sensor of it causes phantom dispenses. Set it a few inches back from the faucet.
- Ignoring the low-battery blink. A weak battery makes it dispense weakly or not at all. Recharge at the first warning, not after it quits.
- Skipping regular maintenance. It doesn't need much, but it needs something regularly. Neglect compounds; maintenance doesn't.
