A. Cleaning Instructions
WARNING
1. HOSHIZAKI recommends cleaning this unit at least once a year. More
frequent cleaning, however, may be required in some existing water
conditions.
2. To prevent injury to individuals and damage to the icemaker, do not use
ammonia type cleaners.
3. Always wear liquid-proof gloves to prevent the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions from coming into contact with skin.
IMPORTANT
1. The cleaning valve is used to provide access to the inside of the evaporator
during the cleaning and sanitizing operation. It should be closed for all
icemaking operation. The compressor will not operate unless this valve is
completely closed.
2. To open the cleaning valve, the valve handle should be parallel to the valve
body. To close the valve, the valve handle should be at a right angle to the
valve body.
