FAQs

What safety precautions are emphasized for using the appliance?

The manual stresses domestic use, installation following the Installation Guide, avoiding obstruction of vent openings, and warnings not to stare into LED lamps. It also includes guidance for preventing injury, avoiding damage to refrigerant circuit pipes, and supervising children around packaging materials and the appliance.

How should the ice and/or water dispenser be sanitized and maintained?

The manual instructs that sanitizing instructions are critical for hygienic water safety. For first use and after each filter change, water flow should be run using “Manual Cleaning” and ice from the first 24 hours discarded. It also advises cleaning the circuit if unused for more than 4/5 days and regular cleaning of the ice bucket or drawer using only drinking water.

When must the water filter be changed and what should be done after replacement?

The filter must be changed when indicated on the control panel, or when the ice/water dispenser has not been used for more than 30 days. After each replacement, the ice and/or water distribution system should be sanitized using a food-grade disinfectant with sodium hypochlorite or the “Sanitising Kit,” followed by rinsing with at least 2 litres of water before use.
