Maintenance and Cleaning
Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and hygienic operation of your Maxima Beverage Dispenser.
- Empty and Disassemble: After each use, empty any remaining liquid. Disassemble all removable parts: lids, containers, cooling tubes, spigots, and drip trays.
