B. Cleaning and Sanitizing Instructions
The icemaker must be cleaned and sanitized at least once a year. More frequent
cleaning and sanitizing may be required in some water conditions.
WARNING
• To prevent injury to individuals and damage to the icemaker, do not use ammonia
type cleaners.
• Carefully follow any instructions provided with the bottles of cleaning and
sanitizing solution.
• Always wear liquid-proof gloves and goggles to prevent the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions from coming into contact with skin or eyes.
• Do not leave the icemaker unattended when panels are off.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the water pump seal, do not leave the control switch in the
"PUMP" position for extended periods when the water tank is empty.
Preparation
1) Remove the front panel, then move the control switch to the "OFF" position. Make sure
the mode switch is in the "ICE" position. After 3 minutes, move the control switch to the
"ON" position and replace the front panel.
2) Allow the appliance to run until the compressor energizes. Once the compressor
energizes, allow the appliance to run for an additional 3 minutes, then remove the front
panel. Move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
3) Remove all ice from the dispenser unit/ice storage bin.
WARNING! If on a dispenser
unit, turn off the dispenser unit power supply after dispensing the ice.
Cleaning
4) Move the mode switch to the "CLEAN" position, then move the control switch to the
"ON" position (1 short beep occurs, then 3 seconds later 1 long beep occurs).
Replace the front panel. The water tank drains and then fills.
5) When the control board starts beeping (2 beep sequence), remove the front panel.
Move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
6) Remove the front insulation panel, then pour 10.4 fl. oz. (308 ml) of Hoshizaki "Scale
Away" into the water tank. Replace the front insulation panel.
7) Move the control switch to the "ON" position (1 short beep occurs, then 3 seconds later
1 long beep occurs). Replace the front panel. To avoid excessive foaming in the water
tank, there is a 1 minute delay before circulation begins. After approximately 30 minutes
of circulation, the icemaker performs 3 rinse cycles.
8) When the control board starts beeping (5 beep sequence), remove the front panel.
Move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
9) In bad or severe water conditions, turn off the power supply, then remove, clean
(cleaning solution = 5 oz. Hoshizaki "Scale Away" per gallon of warm water), rinse, and
replace the cube guide, float switch, water supply tubes, spray tubes, and spray guides;
turn on the power supply when complete. Otherwise, continue to step 10.
