CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Note: The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the bin before the ice maker is used
for the first time and before it is reused after an extended period of time. It is typically convenient to
sanitized the bin after the ice making system has been cleaned and the storage bin is empty. The ice
scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other food container.
1. Disconnect the power supply cord.
2. Open the ice storage bin door and with a clean cloth, wipe down the interior with a sanitizing
solution made of 1 ounce household bleach or chlorine and two gallons of hot water (95-115°F / 35-
46°C).
3. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. The waste water will drain through the drainage tube.
4. Plug in the ice maker.
Note: The sprinkler should only be cleaned when you find that some ice cubes are improperly shaped.
You should clean the ice making system after cleaning the sprinkler.
Note: DO NOT use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners may
transmit taste to the ice cubes or damage or discolor the interior.
1. Disconnect the power supply cord.
2. Open the door and remove the block water board by snapping one end up and pulling forward.
3. Remove the block water board from the evaporator.
4. Find the sprinkler arm and raise it. Disconnect it from the water tube which is connected at the back
of the sprinkler arm.
5. A de-scaling solution may be prepared in a plastic basin with Nu-Calgon Nickel-Safe Ice Machine
Cleaner. Mix four ounces of the ice machine cleaner per gallon of warm water.
6. Remove the sprinkler arm from the interior. Thoroughly clean the sprinkler arm by soaking it in the
basin filled with the de-scaling solution until it is free of any deposits. Use a soft brush to remove any
thick or stubborn residue to help the dissolving action. Rinse under a stream of tap water.
