6. Maintenance and Cleaning

Proper cleaning and maintenance will extend the life of your dispenser.

Daily Cleaning:

1. Empty: After each use, empty any remaining beverage from the container.
2. Disassemble: Remove the lid, ice chamber, and juice container from the base. Detach the spigot from the container. Empty the drip tray.
3. Wash: Hand wash all components (juice container, lid, ice chamber, spigot, drip tray) with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive dish soap. Use a soft cloth or sponge. For the spigot, ensure thorough cleaning to prevent residue buildup.
4. Rinse: Rinse all parts thoroughly with clean water to remove all soap residue.
5. Dry: Dry all components completely with a soft, clean cloth to prevent water spots and rust on stainless steel parts. Allow the polycarbonate container to air dry fully before reassembly or storage.
6. Clean Base: Wipe down the stainless steel base with a damp cloth and dry immediately.

Storage:

Store the disassembled, clean, and dry dispenser in a cool, dry place. Avoid stacking heavy items on the polycarbonate container to prevent damage.

7. Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Leakage from Spigot:
  Solution: Ensure the spigot is properly installed and tightened. Check that all rubber washers are correctly seated and not damaged. If the spigot is old or damaged, it may need replacement.
• Slow Dispensing:
  Solution: Check if the beverage contains pulp or fruit pieces that might be clogging the spigot. Clean the spigot thoroughly. Ensure the ice chamber is not obstructing the flow.
• Beverage Not Staying Cold:
  Solution: Ensure the ice chamber is filled with sufficient ice. Replace melted ice regularly. The dispenser is designed for temporary chilling, not long-term refrigeration.
• Cloudy Polycarbonate Container:
  Solution: This can occur from using abrasive cleaners or hard water. Use only mild soap and soft cloths for cleaning. For hard water stains, a solution of white vinegar and water can help, followed by thorough rinsing.
