Interior Cleaning and Sanitizing

GENERAL

Clean and sanitize the ice machine every six months for 
efficient operation. If the ice machine requires more 
frequent cleaning and sanitizing, consult a qualified 
service company to test the water quality and 
recommend appropriate water treatment or installation 
of AuCS

®

 accessory (Automatic Cleaning System). If 

required, an extremely dirty ice machine may be taken 
apart for cleaning and sanitizing.

CLEANING PROCEDURE

Ice machine cleaner is used to remove lime scale or 
other mineral deposits. It is not used to remove algae or 
slime. Refer to the section on Sanitizing for removal of 
algae and slime.

Step 1   

Set the toggle switch to the OFF position after 

ice falls from the evaporator at the end of a Harvest 
cycle. Or, set the switch to the OFF position and allow 
the ice to melt off the evaporator.

Step 2   

To start cleaning, place the toggle switch in the 

CLEAN position. The water will flow through the water 
dump valve and down the drain. The Clean light will turn 
on to indicate the ice machine is in the Cleaning mode.

Step 3   

Wait about one minute or until water starts to 

flow over the evaporator.

Step 4   

Add the proper amount of Manitowoc Ice 

Machine Cleaner to the water trough.

Step 5   

The ice machine will automatically time out a 

ten minute cleaning cycle, followed by six rinse cycles, 
and stop. The Clean light will turn off to indicate the 
Cleaning mode is completed. This entire cycle lasts 
approximately 25 minutes.

Step 6   

When the cleaning process stops, move the 

toggle switch to OFF position. Refer to “Sanitizing 
Procedure” on the next page.

Step 7   

A. The ice machine may be set to start and finish a 

cleaning procedure then automatically start ice 
making again.

B. You must wait about one minute into the 

cleaning cycle (until water starts to flow over the 
evaporator) then move the switch from CLEAN 
to ICE position.

C. When the cleaning cycle is completed, an ice 

making sequence will start automatically.

!

Caution

Use only Manitowoc approved Ice Machine Cleaner
(part number 94-0546-3) and Sanitizer (part number
94-0565-3). It is a violation of Federal law to use
these solutions in a manner inconsistent with their
labeling. Read and understand all labels printed on
bottles before use.

!

Caution

Do not mix Cleaner and Sanitizer solutions together.
It is a violation of Federal law to use these solutions
in a manner inconsistent with their labeling.

!

Warning

Wear rubber gloves and safety goggles (and/or face
shield) when handling ice machine Cleaner or
Sanitizer.

!

Caution

Never use anything to force ice from the evaporator.
Damage may result.

Model

Amount of Cleaner

Q200  Q280  Q320 Q370

3 ounces (90 ml)

Q420  Q450  Q600  Q800

5 ounces (150 ml)

Q1000   Q1300

Q1600  Q1800

9 ounces (270 ml)

Important

After the toggle switch is moved to the ICE position,
opening the curtain switch will interrupt the cleaning
sequence. The sequence will resume from the point
of interruption when the curtain switch closes.
