Using this soap dispenser is easy. First, insert 6 D cell batteries into the dispenser (batteries are not included). Then, open the top of the dispenser and fill the 1-liter bottle with your favorite liquid soap. Place the dispenser on your countertop. You can use the remote control to operate it from a distance. When the soap runs out, simply refill the bottle. Keep the dispenser clean by wiping it with a damp cloth regularly. Avoid getting water inside the battery compartment. If the dispenser stops working, check the batteries and replace them if needed.
