Care and cleaning of the dispenser.
Defrosting
Defrost whenever frost on the wall of the chiller compartment becomes
excessive. Never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost
as it may damage the liner. We recommend using a plastic scraper.
Do not use any electrical device in defrosting your chiller compartment.
To defrost:
I
Remove items from the compartment.
I
Turn the Cold (Blue) Power switch to off and unplug
the dispenser.
I
Put several towels in the bottom of the compartment
to collect water.
Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster,
keep the door open.
Preparing for Vacation
For long vacations or absences, set both power switches
(on the back of the dispenser) to the O (off) position.
1. Unplug the water dispenser.
2. Remove the water bottle.
3. Drain the water tanks (see Draining the Dispenser).
