The air filter must be cleaned monthly to ensure proper operation of the dispenser. A dirty air filter will reduce
the refrigeration capacity and can potentially damage the compressor. To remove the filter, start by removing
the left and right side panels. The filter will be located under the condenser on the back top section of the
dispenser (see
Figure 9.1
). Remove the filter by bending the corners in and pulling the filter down and then
out through one of the sides of the dispenser. Clean the filter with a mild dishwashing soap and water solution
and dry thoroughly before reinstalling. Make sure to not use water that is too hot or it may damage the filter.
A degreaser may be required if the filter is greasy. To install the filter, slide into filter location through one of
the sides of the dispenser being careful not to pull on any of the harnesses. Once filter has been placed over
back top section of the dispenser, push the filter up so that it sits on the frame edges.
NOTE
: If the dispenser is located in a particularly dusty area or with airborne grease such as the cooking area
of a fast food restaurant, then the filter should be cleaned every two weeks.
