Interior cleaning
The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the water trough
before the ice maker is used 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 ice 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 unit and ice bin with a sanitizing solution
made of 1 ounce of household bleach or chlorine and 2 gallons of hot (95ºF
–115ºF) water.
3.
Pull off the drain hose of the water trough to drain off all water.
4.
Rinse thoroughly with clear water.
5.
After draining off all water, put back the drain hose of the water
trough into the original location.
6.
Put the ice storage bin inside the unit.
7.
Reconnect power to the unit.
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.

3.

Remove dirt and lint from the condenser

attachment of a vacuum cleaner.

Reassemble the lower front louver.
5.
Plug in the ice maker or reconnect
power.

ice cubes and damage or discolor the interior.
