COCA-COLA FREESTYLE DISPENSER CREW GUIDEFREqUENTLY ASkED qUESTIONS (FAq’S)27GENERAL QUESTIONSQ. What is the Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser?A. The Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser is the first in a family of new dispensers that uses micro-dosing technology to offer more than 100 sparkling and still beverage brands from a single freestanding unit. The new unit has approximately the same footprint as today’s six-or eight-valve dispensers.Q. How does the Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser work?A. It creates branded beverages by creating a precise recipe of concentrated ingredients with water and sweetener. The proprietary micro-dosing nozzle blends the beverage at the point where it is dispensed.Q. What is the drink quality of the Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser? A. Because the beverage components are stored separately until the moment of dispensing, each drink poured is fresh tasting and aromatic. The micro-dosing and nozzle technologies enable the Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser to recreate specific brand formulas, so the consumer essentially receives a drink that is made to order. Q. How is the Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser different from today’s fountain dispenser?A. It does not use syrup. Rather, the Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser mixes concentrated flavors with sweetener and water at the nozzle to make beverages. Ingredients are stored in the dispenser cabinet itself. Q. What is micro-dosing?A. Micro-dosing is a technology used to pump and meter fluids with a high degree of accuracy. It is commonly used in medical applications.Q. How was the Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser designed?A. The equipment was thoughtfully designed from the inside out, taking into consideration the interaction experiences of the consumer, customer and technician. The goal was to communicate the heritage of the Company as the original fountain beverage company, while also exceeding consumer expectations in an increasingly digital world.QUESTIONS CREW MEMBERS MAY HAVEQ. Can I put a Coke cartridge in another slot if I am out of the other flavor?A. No. Each slot is dedicated to a particular drink ingredient, flavor or sweetener. If you do place the incorrect cartridge in a slot, the RFID reader will not recognize the cartridge. This ensures there is no cross-contamination in the tubing, and protects consumers who may have an allergy to a particular ingredient.Q. I need to order cartridges. What is the ordering process?A. Cartridges can be ordered quickly and easily on the Coca-Cola SmartTM website, which is: http://cokesmart.coke.com.You will need to register for an account before you can login and place your first order. The registration process is described in the Coca-Cola Smart Start guide that was sent to you prior to installation.QUESTIONS CONSUMERS MAY HAVEQ. How many Coca-Cola brands and flavor options are available on the Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser? A. 100+ sparkling and still brands can be served from the Coca-Cola Freestyle dispenser. Freestyle offers a wide range of categories, including diet and light sparkling beverages, flavored waters, sports drinks, lemonades, and the complete Coca-Cola trademark family - Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, Coke Zero and Caffeine Free Diet Coke.Q. Are all of these brands available in supermarkets or other retail locations? A. Many of these offerings are available at retail, but some have been created for this new dispenser only. If you are curious about which brands are available at retail, send us an e-mail at https://secure.thecocacolacompany.com/ssldocs/mail/eQuery_other.shtml.Q. What if I want something I don't see here? A. You can provide feedback to The Coca-Cola Company by going to www.CokeFeedback.com.
