Drinking water quality
CAUTION
The water filter included with the
appliance only filters out particles
from the supplied water and does
not filter out bacteria or microbes.
All materials used in the water
dispenser are odorless and tasteless.
If the water has an aftertaste, this may
be caused by:
S Mineral and chlorine content in the
drinking water
S Materials from which the domestic
w ater line or connection line are
made
S Freshness of the drinking water. If
w ater has not been dispensed for
an extended period of time, the
w
ater may have a "stale" taste.
In this case, dispense
approx. 15 glasses of water and
discard.
The taste and smell of the water can
be improved by installing the included
filter cartridge at the water intake point.
Dispensing water
1. Hold an appropriate receptacle
under the ice and water dispenser.
2. Keep the water dispenser button
pressed until the desired amount of
w
ater is in the receptacle.
Tip:

cooled to a palatable temperature. If
you would like colder water, place ice
cubes in the glass before dispensing
the water.

button pressed and then stop once
