UTILISATION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE WATER DISPENCER AND FILTER
WATER DISPENSER
FIRST USE
The rst time you use the water dispenser or after a long period left
not used wash the tank and the lter with water. The water dispenser
provides fresh, ltered water, without the need of opening the
refrigerator door. This will reduce the number of times the door is
opened, thus also reducing energy consumption of the product.
FITTING AND REPLACING THE ACTIVE CARBON FILTER
The water lter should be removed from the foil bag (found in the
crisper drawer (item 7). Follow the instructions provided with the lter.
Important: If the lter is left dry for an extended period of time, its
performance may be reduced. Immerse the lter in water for a few
seconds to reinstate optimum performance.
To ll the tank, rotate the cap in the direction of the arrow.
1. Water tank (g. 1)
The water tank is made of antibacterial material. This prevents
and reduces the proliferation of bacteria. An internal container,
with an active carbon ltered ensures water ltration. To ll the
tank: rotate the water inlet towards you and ll with water, using
a jug or other suitable container. Once the tank is full, close the
water inlet by moving it back to its original position. Always
use drinking water only: any other liquid may impair product
performance.

Obtaining ltered water (g. 2)
After lling the tank, the water may not be immediately available. This
is because the ltering process may require a few minutes (depending
on the amount of water in the tank). To dispense water: with the
refrigerator door closed, press the water dispenser tab with the glass.
If for safety reason water delivery must be prevented, simply press the
stop at the back of the tab. To release water delivery, move the stop
back to its original position. It is recommended to drink the supplied
water from the dispenser in 6 hours
.

Cleaning the water tank (g. 3-4-5-6-7-8)
Periodically clean the water tank with running water. Twice a year
it is recommended to keep healthy the unit using specic products
based on diluted chlorine that not modify the material properties
and rinse with current water.
To clean the tank, proceed as follows: (g. 3) release and remove
the water tank by lifting it and pulling towards you. Place the tank
on a at surface, remove and wash the top cover.
Note: the tank must be retted in its position as soon as possible, to
prevent the refrigerator from overheating.

(g. 4) remove the internal container and the lter, and wash them
separately. When washing the lter, only use clean water (no
detergent or sharp tools). To clean the disk lter, rst remove it
from the container.

(g. 5) for a more thorough cleaning, remove the valve cap (the
tting connecting the tank to the refrigerator) by rotating it
anticlockwise. Clean the cap.
Important: do not pull on the valve body (g. 6).
