Cleaning, Sanitation and Maintenance

This ice system requires three types of maintenance:

• 

Remove the build up of mineral scale from the ice machine’s water system and sensors.

• 

Sanitize the ice machine’s water system and the ice storage bin.

• 

Clean the remote condenser.

It is the User’s responsibility to keep the ice machine and ice storage bin in a sanitary condition. Without 

human intervention, sanitation will not be maintained. Ice machines also require occasional cleaning of their 

water systems with a specifically designed chemical. This chemical dissolves mineral build up that forms during 

the ice making process.
Sanitize the ice storage bin as frequently as local health codes require, and every time the ice machine is 

cleaned and sanitized.
The ice machine’s water system should be cleaned and sanitized a minimum of twice per year.
1.  Remove front panel.
2.  Push and release the Clean button. Machine will 

go thru a manual harvest and then begin draining 

the reservoir.

Note: All curtains must be in their closed positions. 

Move curtains to release an ice trapped after ice is 

harvested.
3.  Remove the evaporator cover.
4.  Remove all ice from the bin.

5.  Wait until the Code Display blinks the characters 

A d 1, then pour 24 ounces of Scotsman Clear 

1 Scale remover into the water reservoir. The 

machine will go through a circulation and flushing 

cycle and then shut off, displaying 

O

. This will take 

35 minutes.

6.  Check for scale, repeat steps 2 thru 5 if scale is 

still evident.

7.  Disconnect pump hoses from water distributors.
8.  Depress snaps and pull water distributors forward 

and out of the machine. Remove covers and 

inspect for scale. Remove any remaining scale. 

Set aside.

9.  Remove evaporator covers, set aside.
10. Remove right side panel and liner, set aside.
11. Remove all three curtains. Set aside.
12. Twist counterclockwise and lift water pumps up 

and tip to one side.

13. Remove front water reservoir cover plate, set 

aside.

14. Remove sump cover and water level sensor, set 

sump cover aside.

15. Pull water reservoir forward; tip up and out of the 

machine.

16. Create a solution of sanitizer. Mix 8 ounces of 

NuCalgon IMS II and 5 gallons of 105-115 degree 

F. potable water to create a 200 ppm active 

quaternary solution.

17. Thoroughly wash the water reservoir cover plate, 

sump cover, water distributors, distributor covers, 

evaporator covers, right side panel liner, curtains 

and reservoir with the sanitizer solution.

18. Thoroughly wash the shelf of the ice machine 

cabinet where the reservoir was resting.

19. Thoroughly wash the interior of the evaporator 

compartments including the back panels and 

evaporator edges.

20. Return the reservoir to its original position
21. Return the sump cover, water level sensor, water 

distributors with covers, pump hoses, evaporator 

covers, right side panel liner and curtains to their 

original positions on the ice machine.

22. Return the pumps to their normal positions.
23. Pour one gallon of the sanitizer solution into the 

reservoir.

Scotsman Ice Machine 

Cleaner contains acids. 

These compounds may cause 

burns.
If swallowed, DO NOT 

induce vomiting. Give large 

amounts of water or milk. Call 

Physician immediately. In 

case of external contact, flush 

with water.
