UTILISATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE WATER DISPENSER AND FILTER

Water dispenser

First use

The first time you use the water dispenser or after a long period left not used wash the tank and the filter with water. The water dispenser provides fresh, filtered water, without the need of opening the refrigerator door. This will reduce the number of times the door is opened, thus also reducing energy consumption of the product.

Fitting and replacing the active carbon filter

The water filter should be removed from the foil bag (found in the crisper drawer (item 7). Follow the instructions provided with the filter. Important: If the filter is left dry for an extended period of time, its performance may be reduced. Immerse the filter in water for a few seconds to reinstate optimum performance.

To fill the tank, rotate the cap in the direction of the arrow

Water tank (fig. 1)

The water tank is made of antibacterial material. This prevents and reduces the proliferation of bacteria. An internal container, with an active carbon filtered ensures water filtration. To fill the tank: rotate the water inlet towards you and fill with water, using a jug or other suitable container. Once the tank is full, close the water inlet by moving it back to its original position. Always use drinking water only: any other liquid may impair product performance.

Obtaining filtered water (fig. 2)

After filling the tank, the water may not be immediately available. This is because the filtering process may require a few minutes (depending on the amount of water in the tank). To dispense water: with the refrigerator door closed, press the water dispenser tab with the glass. If for safety reason water delivery must be prevented, simply press the stop at the back of the tab. To release water delivery, move the stop back to its original position. It is recommended to drink the supplied water from the dispenser in 6 hours.

Cleaning the water tank (fig. 3-4-5-6-7-8)

Periodically clean the water tank with running water. Twice a year it is recommended to keep healthy the unit using specific products based on diluted chlorine that not modify the material properties and rinse with current water. To clean the tank, proceed as follows:

- (fig. 3) release and remove the water tank by lifting it and pulling towards you. Place the tank on a flat surface, remove and wash the top cover.

Note: the tank must be refitted in its position as soon as possible, to prevent the refrigerator from overheating.

- (fig. 7) replace the valve cap by rotating clockwise.

Fig. 7

- (fig. 8) fit the tank back in place by placing it between the lateral guides of the door and pushing it in position, ensuring that the valve is back in its original seat. Check that the there are no gaps between the rubber seal of the tank and the door.

Water Filter Duration

To ensure optimum performance you should change the water filter according with the following table:

Water consumption (average) Filter duration

3,0 l/day 4 months 4,5 l/day 3 months

6,0 l/day 2 months

Filter replacement is not covered by product warranty. To order more water filter cartridges, please contact your after-sales service.
