Cleaning, Sanitizing and Maintenance
IMPORTANT: Failure to follow the instructions regarding sanitizing
can compromise the hygienic safety of the water dispensed.
When using the refrigerator for the first time, and each time
the water filter is changed, flush the water system. Discard the
first 15 litres of water, equivalent to 6 to 7 minutes of
dispensing (not necessarily consecutive, but before initial
consumption) and discard the ice produced in the first
24 hours.
If the water dispenser has not been used for more than
5 days, it is advisable to clean the circuit and run off the first
litre of water.
Clean the ice bin regularly using only drinking water for
cleaning the ice bin.
The water 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 water filter replacement, sanitise the ice and /or
water dispensing system using a food grade disinfectant (with
sodium hypochlorite), which does not alter the characteristics
of the materials, or use the "Sanitising Kit" available from the
After-Sales Service. 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.
Flushing the Water System
1. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the water
dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds.
Repeat until water begins to flow.
2. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing
the dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total
15 litres has been dispensed. This will flush air from the filter
and water dispensing system, and prepare the water filter for
use. Additional flushing may be required in some households.
As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the
dispenser.
The Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a
fresh supply.
To Dispense Water:
1. Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser lever.
2. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
The Ice Dispenser
Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when
the dispenser lever is pressed. To turn off the ice maker, see "Ice
Maker and Storage Bin."
Your ice maker can produce both crushed and cubed ice. Before
dispensing ice, select which type of ice you prefer by pressing the
ICE TYPE button.
The display screen indicates which type of ice is selected.
CRUSHED CUBED
For crushed ice, cubes are crushed before being dispensed. This
may cause a slight delay when dispensing crushed ice. Noise
from the ice crusher is normal, and pieces of ice may vary in size.
When changing from crushed to cubed, a few ounces of crushed
ice will be dispensed along with the first cubes.
To Dispense Ice:
1. Make sure the desired type of ice is selected. To switch
between cubed and crushed, press ICE TYPE.
WARNING
Cut Hazard
Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice.
Failure to do so can result in cuts.
2. Press a sturdy glass against the ice dispenser lever. Hold the
glass close to the dispenser opening so ice does not fall
outside of the glass.
IMPORTANT: You do not need to apply a lot of pressure to the
lever in order to activate the ice dispenser. Pressing hard will
not make the ice dispense faster or in greater quantities.
3. Remove the glass to stop dispensing.
NOTE: Ice may continue to dispense for up to 10 seconds
after removing the glass from the lever. The dispenser may
continue to make noise for a few seconds after dispensing.
The Dispenser Light
When you use the dispenser, the light will automatically turn on.
If you want the light to be on continuously, you may choose either
ON or DIM. The display screen indicates which mode is selected.
ON
ON: Press LIGHT to turn the dispenser light on.
DIM: Press LIGHT a second time to select DIM mode. The
dispenser light will remain on, but at a lower intensity.
OFF: Press LIGHT a third time to turn the dispenser light off.
The dispenser lights are LEDs that cannot be changed. If it
appears that your dispenser lights are not working, see
"Troubleshooting" for more information.
