Cleaning and Maintenance
Use the Self-Cleaning Ozone Feature
It is highly recommended that you use the self-cleaning feature on a weekly
basis to sanitize tanks and water lines. To activate the self-cleaning cycle,
press in the self-cleaning switch (9), hold for 5 seconds and release. The
power indicator light on the front of the dispenser will begin blinking,
indicating the cleaning process is underway.
During the cleaning cycle, ozone is produced and injected into the water
system. This ozone kills bacteria and biofilms typically found in water
dispensers. By the time the cleaning cycle ends, the ozone is converted to
harmless oxygen and emitted into the air.
IMPORTANT: The cycle takes 90 minutes to complete. During this time do
not dispense and drink the water. Doing so may result in an odd taste. For
your convenience, we recommend that you do this during a period when the
dispenser is not in use, such as overnight hours or when staff is away from
the office. During the cycle you may smell a faint trace of ozone.
Care and Maintenance
- Keep this dispenser in a dry and cool place and avoid direct sunshine.
- Ensure the back of the dispenser is at least 20 cm (8 in.) away from the wall.
- Never put the dispenser on paper or foam, which may store water and then cause creepage. Never put anything flammable beside this machine.
- Do not use the dispenser outdoors or in a place that can be splashed by water.
- If the dispenser is not in use for longer than a 24-hour period, turn off the heating switch or the refrigerating switch to save power and drain any remaining water.
- Clean your cabinet, controls, bottle probe, and spout each time you change your water bottle. Use a clean soft cloth and a food-grade sanitizer or bleach.
- Empty and clean the drip tray, grid, and float as needed.
