Interior Cleaning
The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the trough before the ice maker is
used for the first time and reused after stopping for an extended period of time. It is usually
convenient to sanitize the trough after the ice-making system has been cleaned and the storage
bin is empty.
1.
Disconnect the power to the unit.
2.
Open the door and take out the removable ice storage bin. With a clean cloth, wipe down the
interior of the unit with a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce of household bleach and 2
gallons of hot water (95ºF to 115ºF).
3.
Rinse thoroughly with clear water.
4.
Connect a hose to the drain outlet at the rear of the unit to drain water completely.
5.
Put the ice storage bin inside the unit.
6.
Reconnect power to the unit.
The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other food container.
Condenser Cleaning
A dirty or clogged condenser prevents proper airflow, reduces ice making capacity, and causes
higher-than-recommended operating temperatures that may lead to component failure. Have the
condenser cleaned at least once every six months.
1.
Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power.
2.
Remove the 2 screws on the front cover and
gently pull it off.
3.
Locate the condenser filter. This can be lifted out and
cleaned with a brush or flowing water.
4.
Remove dirt and lint from condenser fins and the unit
compartment with a brush attachment on a vacuum
cleaner.
5.
Put back the filter and reassemble the front cover.
6.
Plug in the ice maker or reconnect power.
DO NOT use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives
on the interior. These cleaners may transmit taste to the
ice cubes and damage or discolor the interior.
