Water tank (fig. 1)
The water tank is made of antibacterial material. This prevents and reduces the proliferation
of bacteria.
An internal container, with an active carbon filtered ensures water filtration.
To fill the tank: rotate the water inlet towards you and fill 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 filtered water (fig. 2)
After filling the tank, the water may not be immediately available. This is because the filtering
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 (fig. 3-4-5-6-7-8-9)
Periodically clean the water tank with running water. Twice a year it is recommended to
keep healthy the unit using specific products based on diluted chlorine that not modify the
material properties and rinse with current water.
To clean the tank, proceed as follows:
- (fig. 3) release and remove the top door tray
- (fig. 4) release and remove the water tank by lifting it and pulling towards you. Place the
tank on a flat surface, remove and wash the top cover.
Note: the tank must be refitted in its position as soon as possible, to
prevent the refrigerator from overheating.
- (fig. 5a -5b) remove the internal container and the filter, and wash them
separately. When washing the filter, only use clean water (no
detergent or sharp tools). To clean the disk filter, first remove it from the
container.
- (fig. 6) for a more thorough cleaning, remove the valve cap (the fitting
connecting the tank to the refrigerator) by rotating it anticlockwise. Clean
the cap. Important: do not pull on the valve body (fig. 7).
- (fig. 8) replace the valve cap by rotating clockwise.
- (fig. 9) fit the tank back in place by placing it between the lateral guides of
the door and pushing it in position, ensuring that the valve is back in its
original seat. Check that the there are no gaps between the rubber seal of
the tank and the door.
Suggested exchange of filter for a standard consumption usage of:
3,0 l/day 4 months
4,5 l/day 3 months
6,0 l/day 2 months
Filter replacement is not covered by product warranty. To order more water filter cartridges,
please contact your after-sales service.

Water dispenser
First use
The first time you use the water dispenser or after a long period left not used wash the tank and the filter
with water. The water dispenser provides fresh, filtered 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 filter should be removed from the foil bag (found in the crisper drawer (item 7). Follow the
instructions provided with the filter.
Important: If the filter is left dry for an extended period of time, its performance may be reduced.
Immerse the filter in water for a few seconds to reinstate optimum performance.
