6.2 Cleaning and Descaling
Cleaning
o
Clean the ice cube maker thoroughly after every use and after longer periods of
non-use.
o
Disconnect the ice cube maker from its power source (remove the plug!)
o
Remove the ice cube container and wash it in running water.
o
Clean the interior and exterior of the unit with warm water and a soft cloth.
o
Use soft cloth only and make sure you never use any kind of abrasive agents,
which could scratch the surface.
o
Do not use any petrol products to not damage the plastic parts and the operating
panel.
o
After the cleaning procedure you should use a soft and dry cloth to wipe dry and
polish the surface.
o
Make sure the device has been cleaned and dried properly for further usage.
Descaling
o
Water quality may cause calcium deposits to form on the water reservoir. This may
negatively affect the unit's functioning. For this reason the unit should undergo
regular descaling.
o
For descaling, use a water and vinegar solution, or a commercially-available
product. Fill the reservoir with the solution and start the ice production process.
o
Repeat the cycle 1-2 more times using clean water in order to rinse out all traces
of the descaling solution.
CAUTION!
Ice made during the descaling process should be removed and not used for
drinks or cooling food products!
6.3 Safety instructions for maintenance

In case of damage or malfunction, please contact your stockist or our customer
service centre. Pay attention to the troubleshooting tips in pt. 7.
