Descaling
For the best water quality, Polar recommend that a
water filter is installed to the mains water supply,
particularly in hard water areas. Doing so will
reduce the build up of limescale and contaminants
in the water tank thus maintaining energy
efficiency and prolonging the life of the appliance.
To de-scale the appliance:
• Switch off and disconnect the power supply.
• Remove the ice basket and water filter for
cleaning.
• Add dilute cleaner into the water tank. (Note:
Choose ice maker specific cleaner and follow
the manufacturer's instructions.)
• Clean the water box, evaporator (metal) and
water tank with a soft brush.

Refrigerant leak or block in the
refrigerant system
Loosen the drain screw to drain the solution.
Flush out the system thoroughly with clean
water to remove any cleaner residue.
Re-locate all removable parts.
Opening the door for long periods can cause a
significant increase of the temperature in the
compartments of the appliance.
Clean regularly surfaces that can come in
contact with ice and accessible drainage
systems.
Clean water tanks if they have not been used
for 48h.
If the refrigerating appliance is left empty for
long periods, switch off, defrost, clean, dry,
and leave the door open to prevent mould
developing within the appliance.
