10. If the metal valve insert is attached, gently push it through the valve body cut-out. Remove the
reed switch by sliding it forward through the front of the valve body and feed the wires
horizontally through the narrow cut-out. Gently guide the reed switch through the larger opening
of the cut-out. The reed switch and an attached metal valve insert will be cleaned in place.

11. Remove the round plastic ring (spring retainer) from the solenoid. It cannot be fully removed
from the valve assembly, as the reed switch wires are threaded through an eyelet on the plastic
ring. The metal valve insert thermistor wire may also be threaded through the eyelet.

12. Clean the valves:
a. All removable components should be immersed in clean soapy water. This includes the
valve door, valve body, plunger, spring, screws, and detached metal valve insert. Rinse
thoroughly, sanitize and air-dry.
b. All non-removable components, including the reed switch, plastic ring (spring retainer), and
metal valve insert, if attached, should be gently dipped in clean, soapy water. Dip in clean
water to rinse and sanitize. Dry with a clean, soft cloth.
c. Clean the front panel and screws in clean soapy water. Rinse well with warm, clean water.
Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth. If a dishwasher is available, the front panel may be
cleaned on the full wash cycle.
13. While cleaning, examine the valve hinges. Broken hinges can result in over dispensing and must
be replaced immediately.
14. Wipe the valve block with a clean, damp cloth. If using a non-portion-control dispenser wipe
around the valve spring cup.

15. Before reassembling the valve, verify there is no product buildup inside the solenoid. If
necessary, use a plastic knife and damp cloth to clean the area.
