•
use a cloth dampened with a specific chlorine-free product
for stainless steel to clean the structure.
i
Note: Disconnect the electrical power supply from the appliance
to perform maintenance and cleaning operations.
6.1 CLEANING THE AIR CONDENSER
•
to make the most of your appliance in terms of efficiency
and durability, the air filter at the front of the machine must
be cleaned every week (fig.
•
the filter is removed by simply extracting it. Simply wash the
filter with a water jet of warm water and dry it before setting
it back in place.
Do not use brushes or blunt objects to clean the filter.
It is absolutely forbidden to operate the producer without
the air filter to prevent malfunctioning.
6.2 CLEANING THE WATER INLET FILTER
•
Close the water shut-off valve of the appliance, disconnect
the water inlet pipe and remove the filter screen that is on
the water inlet electrovalve with a pair of pliers.
•
Clean the screen with a water jet and reassemble it into its
place.
6.3 CLEANING THE CONTAINER
•
remove the ice from the container. Clean inside the con-
tainer with a sponge dampened with warm water and a lit-
tle sodium bicarbonate;
•
rinse with clean water and dry carefully.
6.4 THE WASH AND SANITATION CYCLE
•
the machine has been equipped with a "Self Cleaning" func-
tion in order to remedy the problems deriving from the hard-
ness of the supply water and therefore, the formation of
impurities on the components and parts that are in contact
with the water.
thanks to the cleaning action of a specific product, which
comes in the form of powder in a sachet and a dosing bot-
tle, this function keeps the machine clean and sanitised from
limescale and deposits.
•
to guarantee proper cleaning of the ice maker one recom-
mends carrying out the wash cycle at least 3-4 times a year,
according to the hardness of the water supply.
Cleaning kit (optional)
the kit is composed of a plas-
tic bottle with rubber pipe,
one confection of acid citric (1
kg.), and instructions for the
cleaning procedure.

6.5 IMPLEMENTING THE WASH AND SANITATION CYCLE
Adopt proper precautions when handling citric acid whilst
preparing the solution (water+ citric acid,
see the table). Wear protective gloves and
goggles.
•
turn the machine off.
•
remove all ice from the container.
•
using the specific product and the plastic
bottle, prepare the solution by dissolving
the powder in warm water (max. 40°C), ac-
cording to the quantities shown on the at-
tached table. mix well whilst ensuring that
no lumps are formed.
•
Switch the machine on by pressing the
ON/OFF button whilst keeping the RESET button pressed
(fig.
). Press the rESEt button using a pin of suitable di-
2@
ameter to enter the appropriate hole.
•
Both lEDs will flash quickly. open the deposit hatch, wait for
the tray to go back into closing position. Insert the cannula
into the bottle throughout its length in the appropriate hole
(fig.
2$
) and drain all the previously prepared descaling mix-
ture, applying pressure with your hands on the bottle. Close
the hatch and repress the rESEt button to start the waSh-
Ing cycle.
•
once the wash cycle is started, lED flashing will slow down.
During the wash function, rinse the container thoroughly.
•
the duration of the washing cycle is of approximately 3
hours.
•
once the descaling function has started it is not possible to
interrupt the washing cycle. In case of a power-cut, the ma-
chine resumes from where it had stopped.
•
at the end of the washing and rinsing cycle the machine
restarts in the cold cycle.
For all extraordinary maintenance and/or repairs (me-
chanical, cooling and electrical parts) that require adjust-
ments and/or components to be replaced, always refer to
an authorised service centre.
If the appliance should not be used for long periods of
time:
- disable the machine
- remove all the ice from the container
- drain all the water
- thoroughly clean the machine
- leave the door of the container ajar
•
after a long period of inactivity one recommends to perform
a cleaning/descaling cycle before commencing ice produc-
tion.
