Cleaning the Outside of the Water Dispenser
The outside of the dispenser can be wiped clean with a vitapur® water dispenser cleaning solution or a mild soap and
water mixture. Never use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and then dry surfaces.
Cleaning the Drip Tray
To remove the drip tray, (Fig. 8) pull the tray forward dislodging it from the guides.
Drain and clean.
The drip tray should be emptied and cleaned regularly to remove spotting and any
mineral deposits. Clean with vitapur® water dispenser cleaning solution or a mild
soap and water mixture. For tough deposits, add vinegar and let it soak until the
deposits come loose. Then wash, rinse and dry thoroughly. To replace, put the grill
back on the tray and slide the tray onto the guides (not dishwasher safe).
Cleaning the Condenser
Vacuum or sweep away the dust from the condenser coils at the back of the
dispenser. For best results, you can purchase a brush designed specifically for
this purpose from your local appliance store. This will improve cooling
and efficiency.
Draining the Reservoirs
Drain the reservoirs before and after cleaning, when going on long vacations or
if not using the dispenser for long periods of time.
IMPORTANT! Unplug the dispenser before performing this procedure.
Dispense hot water until temperature drops to a safe level to avoid the risk
of scalding.
1. Remove the water bottle.
2. Press both dispensing taps until water no longer comes out.
3. Place a bucket beneath the drain valve on the back of the dispenser.
4. Remove the cap and plug from the drain valve and let the water flow into the bucket. Replace the cap and plug.
IMPORTANT: Collect the water in a container, not the drip tray.
5. Replace the water bottle (see Installing the Water Bottle).
Going Away on Vacation
When not using the dispenser for long periods of time or when going on vacation, conserve energy, unplug the dispenser
and drain the reservoirs
(see Draining the Reservoirs). Follow Initial Product Cleaning Procedures upon return and
startup of the dispenser.
