Additional Maintenance: Water Distributors
It may become necessary to remove the water
distributors from the top of the evaporator and
clean (de-mineralize) them outside of the ice
machine.

2. Push and release the OFF button.
3. Remove the evaporator cover.
4. Lift the water distributors up at the center until
they snap apart.
5. Repeat for all evaporators.
6. Examine the top of the evaporators. The Water

installed position.
