Sanitizing and Cleaning the Water Tanks
I
MPORTANT: Periodically the water dispenser
tanks must be sanitized to prevent unpleasant
tastes in the water and cleaned to remove mineral
deposits that can impair flow.
To Sanitize:
1. Before cleaning, set both power
switches (on the back of the
dispenser) in the O (off) position
and unplug the water dispenser.
NOTE: For first time installation, skip
steps 2–4.
2. Empty the water bottle, then remove it from
the dispenser.
3. Drain the water tanks (see Draining the
Dispenser).
4. Reinstall the silicon stopper and drain cap (see
Draining the Dispenser).
5. DO NOT ADD BLEACH FIRST OR DIRECTLY TO
THE DISPENSER. Concentrated bleach may
damage plastic.
Add 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) of ordinary 6.0%
maximum household bleach to a 2 quart
(2 liter) pitcher filled with tap water.
6. Pour the solution in the opening at the top
of the dispenser.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the dispenser is full.
8. Press the hot and cold dispenser buttons until
the water just begins to flow from the taps.
9. Allow to sit for 15–20 minutes.
To Remove Mineral Deposits:
Mix 2 quarts (2 liters) of water with two quarts
of vinegar OR mix 1 gallon of water (4 liters)
with 16 ounces (454 g) of citric acid crystals.
Bleach does not remove mineral deposits. Do
this in place of step 5 when removing mineral
deposits.
Defrosting (model GXCF25HWW only)
Defrost whenever frost on the wall of the chiller
compartment becomes excessive. Never use a sharp
or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may
damage the liner. We recommend using a plastic
scraper. Do not use any electrical device in defrosting
your chiller compartment.
To defrost:
I
Remove items from the compartment.
I
Turn the Cold (Blue) Power switch to off and
unplug the dispenser.
10. Rinse out the bleach solution:
— Drain the water tanks into a large bucket
(see Draining the Dispenser).
— Make sure that the silicon stopper is
NOT installed.
— IMPORTANT: Remove the separator and
wipe out the cold water reservoir (see
Cleaning the Separator).
OFF
position
— Clean, then reinstall the separator and
collar (see Cleaning the Separator).
— Pour approximately 1 gallon (4 quarts or
4 liters) of fresh tap water into the top
and allow to drain into the bucket.
— Flush with an additional 1 gallon (4
quarts or 4 liters) of fresh tap water and
allow to drain into the bucket.
11. Reinstall the silicon stopper and drain cap
(see Draining the Dispenser).
12. Install a fresh water bottle (see Loading the
Dispenser).
13. Dispense 1 quart (1 liter) of water from each
tap and taste to make sure the bleach
solution is completely removed.
If you continue to taste the chlorine from the
bleach solution, repeat steps 10–13 until the taste
is gone.
14. Plug in the dispenser. Then turn
on the hot and cold power switches
(on the back of the dispenser).
I
Put several towels in the bottom of the
compartment to collect water.
Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost
faster, keep the door open.
After defrosting:
I
Remove the wet towels and wipe up any
remaining water.
I
Wipe the compartment with a dry cloth.
I
Plug in the unit and turn on the Cold (Blue)
power switch. Return items to the unit.
