Ice-making system
Minerals removed from water during the freezing cycle will eventually form a hard, scaly
deposit in the water system. Cleaning the system regularly helps remove the mineral scale
build up. Hard water and a less effective filter may require the cleaning system to be cleaned
more regularly, up to once every 6 months.
o
Ensure that there is no ice on the evaporator. If ice is being formed, wait for the cycle to
complete before turning the ice maker OFF.
o
Remove all ice from the ice storage bin.
o
Keep the ice maker connected to the water supply. Pour 8 oz. of Ice Maker Cleaning
Solution (nickel-safe) into the water trough. Wait 5 minutes, then press the ON and
Clean buttons at the same time. The Cleaning cycle will initiate and the unit will run the
Automatic Clean Mode.
o
The unit will complete the Cleaning cycle after 30 minutes, or the cycle can be stopped
by pressing the Clean button again, after which the unit will progress to the freeze stage.
Allow at least 20 minutes in Automatic Clean Mode for proper cleaning. After cleaning,
press the ON/OFF switch again. Use a drain hose on the front of the water trough to
drain off the waste water to a convenient container. Do not drain the waste water to the
inside of the cabinet.
o
Repeat steps 3 and 4 three times (without the Ice Maker Cleaning Solution) to rinse the
ice making system thoroughly.
o
Prepare a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce of household bleach and 2 gallons of hot
water (95º to 115ºF). Wipe the entire bin inside and outside, covering the entire surface
of the walls.
o
Fill a spray bottle with the sanitizing solution and spray all corners and edges, making
sure to cover all surfaces with the solution. Allow the solution to rest for 3 minutes, then
wipe dry.
o
Repeat step 3 and 4 once more to rinse the ice making system again.
o
Set the Power switch to the ON position. The machine will return to the regular ice
making mode. Discard the first batch of ice.
IMPORTANT:
The Ice Maker Cleaning Solution contains acids. Do NOT use or mix with any other
solvent-based cleaner products. Use rubber gloves to protect hands. Carefully read the material
safety instructions on the container of the ice machine cleaner. Discard the first batch of ice
produced after cleaning.
Long Term Storage or Relocation
If you are intending to not use the ice maker for a long period of time, or want to relocate the ice
maker, follow the steps below.
1. Shut off the water supply at the main source.
2. Disconnect the water supply line from the water inlet.
3. Shut off the electric supply at the main electrical power source.
4. Take out the ice storage bin to remove any remaining ice and water. Dry the bin.
5. Connect the drain hose to drain out any water, and then plug the drain outlet once complete.
6. Pull off the drainage tube of the water trough to drain off all water.
7. Leave the door open to allow for circulation and to prevent mold and mildew.
8. Leave water supply line and power cord disconnected until ready to reuse.
