Cleaning Your Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT: Make sure you turn the power switch to the OFF position and unplug the dispenser
before performing any of the following cleaning procedures.
Cleaning the Outside of the Water Dispenser
The outside of the dispenser can be wiped clean with a 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 the surfaces.
Cleaning the Drip Tray
To remove, take the grill off the drip tray and firmly lift the tray up, dislodging it
from the dispenser. Drain and clean.
The drip tray should be emptied and cleaned regularly to remove spotting
and any mineral deposits. Clean with a 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.

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
of your unit.
Draining the Reservoirs
Drain the reservoir • Before and after cleaning your unit.
• When going on long vacations.
• If you are not using the dispenser for long periods of time.
IMPORTANT! Turn the power switch to the OFF position and unplug the dispenser before
performing this procedure. Dispense hot water until temperature drops to a safe level to avoid
the risk of scalding.
