B. Maintenance Instructions
IMPORTANT
This icemaker must be maintained individually, referring to the instruction
manual and labels provided with the icemaker.
1. Stainless Steel Exterior
To prevent corrosion, wipe the exterior occasionally with a clean, soft cloth. Use a damp
cloth containing a neutral cleaner to wipe off oil or dirt build up.
2. Storage Bin and Scoop
• Wash your hands before removing ice. Use the plastic scoop provided (bin accessory).
• The storage bin is for ice use only. Do not store anything else in the storage bin.
• Clean the scoop and storage bin liner using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after
cleaning.
3. Air Filters (air-cooled model only)
Plastic mesh air filters remove dirt and dust from the air, and keep the condenser from
getting clogged. As the filters get clogged, the icemaker’s performance will be reduced.
Check the filters at least twice a month. When clogged, use warm water and a neutral
cleaner to wash the filters.
4. Condenser (air-cooled and remote air-cooled models only)
Check the condenser once a year, and clean the coil if required by using a brush or
vacuum cleaner. More frequent cleaning may be required depending on location.
C. Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage
IMPORTANT
When shutting off the icemaker for an extended time, drain out all water from
the water tank and remove the ice from the storage bin. The storage bin should
be cleaned and dried. Drain the icemaker to prevent damage to the water
supply line at sub-freezing temperatures, using air or carbon dioxide. Shut off
the icemaker until the proper ambient temperature is resumed.
When the icemaker is not used for two or three days, it is sufficient to only move the control
switch to the "OFF" position, unless the icemaker will be at sub-freezing temperatures.
1. On water-cooled model only, first remove the water from the water-cooled
condenser:
1) Turn off the power supply and remove the front panel and right side panel.
2) Close the condenser water supply line shut-off valve. If connected to a closed loop
water supply, also close the condenser return outlet shut-off valve. See Fig. 14 for a
condenser connected to a potable water supply and Fig.15 for a condenser connected
to a closed loop water supply.
3) Open the condenser water supply line drain valve. If connected to a closed loop water
supply, also open the condenser return outlet drain valve.
