CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Cleaning Your Icemaker
1. Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items including shelves and racks.
2. Wash the inside surfaces with warm water and baking soda solution. Prepare the solution by
mixing about 2 tablespoons of baking soda with a quart of water.
3. Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
4. Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning the area of the controls, or any
electrical parts.
5. Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and a mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a
clean soft cloth.
Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature
of your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. Take the proper steps to
protect the contents of the icemaker If your power is going to be off for a longer period of time.
Vacations
Leave the icemaker operating during vacations of less than three weeks. Leave the door slightly ajar to
prevent the buildup of odors if you turn off the icemaker for an extended period.
Transporting Your Icemaker
If you need to move your icemaker once the box has been discarded:
1. Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
2. Turn the adjustable leg up to the base to avoid damage.
3. Tape the door shut.
4. Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation, and protect the
outside of the appliance with a blanket or similar item.
Energy-Saving Tip
Place the icemaker in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances
and out of direct sunlight.
