Monthly Cleaning/Sanitation of the Ice Bin
CAUTION:
!
Do not use sharp objects, metal devices or abrasives on the ice hopper, top cover, ice chute or
agitator disc, or irreparable damage may result. Do NOT use solvent or other cleaning agents
as they may attack the plastic material.
Soapy Solution:
Use a mixture of mild detergent and warm (100
o
F) potable water.
Sanitizing Solution:
Use 1/2 ounce of non-scented household bleach in one gallon of potable
water. Preparing the sanitizing solution at this ratio will create a solution of 200 PPM chlorine.
1. Turn ABS unit power switch OFF. The switch is located on the lower left-hand side of the
ABS unit front panel.
2. Remove top cover and set aside.
3. Remove all ice from the hopper and discard. If necessary, pour clean, potable water slowly
into the hopper to assist in melting the ice.
4. After all the ice is removed inspect the cold plate areas and drains as follows:
A. Remove the splash panel and the plastic cold plate access cover.
B. Locate and remove any debris from the drain trough and cold plate. Make sure the
drain holes are not clogged.
C. Reinstall the cold plate access cover and splash panel.
5. Remove the agitator retainer and the ice agitator assembly.
6. Using a long handled nylon bristle brush, clean the interior of the hopper, top cover, agita-
tor, agitator cover and cold plate with a warm, soapy solution. The cold plate is to be
cleaned by reaching through the ice opening into the hopper bottom with the long handle
brush. Be certain to clean the entire surface area of the cold plate including all the corners.
Thoroughly rinse the hopper, top cover, agitator, agitator cover and the cold plate with
clean potable water.
7. Using a long handle nylon bristle brush, clean the interior of the ice chute with the warm,
soapy solution. Access to the to the ice chute can be gained via the interior of the hopper
and the ice chute outlet on the front of the ABS unit. Thoroughly rinse the ice chute with
clean, potable water.
8. Reinstall the agitator assembly.
9. Using a mechanical spray bottle filled with sanitizing solution, spray the entire interior of
the ice bin, ice chute and ice agitator assembly. Allow to air dry.
