Cleaning,
maintenance of the ice and/or water
dispenser (if present)
Failure to follow the instructions regarding
sanitizing can compromise the hygienic safety of
the water dispensed.
> When using the appliance for the first time and
every time the filter is changed, it is recommended
to let the water flow in the circuit using the "Manual
Cleaning" and discard the ice produced in the first
24 hours.
> If the water dispenser has not been used for more
than 4/5 days, it is advisable to clean the circuit and
run off the first litre of water.
> Reposition the removable water dispenser (if
present), ensuring your hands are hygienically
clean.
> Clean the ice bucket or drawer regularly by using
only drinking water.
> The filter must be changed when indicated on the
control panel or when the ice/water dispenser has
not been used for more than 30 days.
> With each filter replacement, sanitise the ice and/
or water distribution system using a food grade
disinfectant (with sodium hypochlorite), which does
not alter the characteristics of the materials. Rinse
with at least 2 litres of water before use.
> Only original spare parts supplied by the
manufacturer should be used when replacing
components in the ice and water dispenser.
