5 TIPS FROM ITV’S TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE SERVICE
1 – In air-condensed machines, you must clean the condenser. Besides, you must keep the grid clean and free of obstructions.
2- Clean the pump filter every 3 months so that it does not get obstructed with limescale. In areas with hard water, use an anti-limescale filter. Besides, perform a decalcification every year with ITV Calklin.
3- Clean the evaporator and the components in contact with water every 6 months. Mix water with ITV Calklin, put the solution in the water container with the cleaning button on, or with the machine switched off in case there is not such a button.
4- Carry out maintenance of the components which need regular cleaning. Keep the storage reservoir clean with a basic cleaning every week.
5- Every 6 months, check the water inlet filter. Make sure the drain is not jammed and verify that the ice sensor and the stock thermostat work properly.
