III. Cleaning and Maintenance
WARNING
1. CHOKING HAZARD: Ensure all components, fasteners, and thumbscrews
are securely in place after any cleaning or maintenance is done to the unit.
Make sure that none have fallen into the storage bin.
2. The storage bin is for ice use only. Do not store anything else in the storage
bin.
3. Keep the area around the icemaker clean. Dirt, dust, or insects in the unit
could cause electrical damage to the equipment or harm to individuals.
A. Cleaning and Sanitizing Instructions
Hoshizaki recommends cleaning and sanitizing this unit at least once a year. More
frequent cleaning and sanitizing, however, may be required in some existing water
conditions.
WARNING
1. To prevent injury to individuals and damage to the icemaker, do not use
ammonia type cleaners.
2. Carefully follow any instructions provided with the bottles of cleaning and
sanitizing solution.
3. Always wear liquid-proof gloves and goggles to prevent the cleaning and
sanitizing solutions from coming into contact with skin or eyes.
4. After cleaning and sanitizing, be careful not to leave any cleaning or
sanitizing solution in the icemaker.
1. Cleaning Solution
IMPORTANT
For safety and maximum effectiveness, use the solution immediately after
dilution.
Dilute 5 fl. oz. (148 ml or 10 tbs) of Hoshizaki "Scale Away" with 1 gallon (3.8 l) of warm
water. This is a minimum amount. Make more solution if necessary.
2. Cleaning Procedure
1) Remove all ice from the evaporator and the storage bin.
Note: To remove cubes on the evaporator, move the control switch to the "OFF"
position and then move it back to the "ICE" position after 3 minutes. The harvest
cycle starts and the cubes will be removed from the evaporator.
2) Move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
