Cleaning the Drip Tray and Grille
The dispenser drip tray is not self-draining. To reduce
water spotting, the tray and its grille should be emptied,
cleaned and wiped dry regularly.

taste and flow. To clean the water tanks:

4 Mix one quart of water with either one quart of
vinegar or four ounces of citric acid crystals
5 Pour the solution in the opening at the top of the
dispenser

to flow from the tap

water to drain completely. Replace the cap.
