CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top
performance, and long life.
Never use a solvent-based cleaning agent. These cleaners may transmit taste to
the ice cubes, or damage and discolor the interior.
Unplug the unit before cleaning the exterior and interior.
Before using your ice maker, you are strongly recommended to clean it
thoroughly. (This process should clean the unit of any impurities that may have
been left behind during the manufacturing process.)
1. Unplug the water line from the ice maker.
2. Clean the interior with a diluted cleaning solution, warm water and a soft cloth.
(DO NOT use any caustic or abrasive solutions) (Do not clean your ice maker
with flammable fluids.)
3. The outside of the ice maker should be cleaned regularly with a mild detergent
and warm water.
4. Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.
If the ice has a strange taste
If the ice has an unappealing taste, or the unit develops a musty odor, try
cleaning the water line of the ice maker with a mild white vinegar solution or
lemon juice, and then soak the line in hot water. After that, run a few cycles with
plain water to eliminate all traces of the vinegar or lemon juice. Throw out the first
two ice batches after cleaning.
If you find the bad taste remains after this procedure, use a solution of 2
tablespoons of baking soda and hot water to soak the water line. Leave overnight
to absorb any remaining odors/tastes. Drain the solution, rinse the line with
water, and dry the line thoroughly.
Routine maintenance
1. Add a mild cleaning solution mixture to the ice storage container. Use a 10:1
ratio of water to either white vinegar or lemon juice.
2. Scrub the interior of the ice maker (including evaporator rods) with the
solution.
3. Uninstall the water line from the ice maker. Use the solution to clean the water
line as well.
3. Drain the solution from the ice maker. Wipe down ice maker interior and water
line with hot water.
4. Run the ice maker to make a few batches of ice. Discard the ice.
7. Your ice maker is now clean and should provide clean ice.
If the ice maker will not be used for an extended period of time, you should
unplug the unit from power, drain the water from the reservoir and dry the
interior with a clean soft cloth.
Note: Do not touch the power plug when your hands are wet.
Note: Never unplug the unit by pulling on the plug.
The icemaker must be thoroughly
cleaned if it has been left unused
for a long time. Follow carefully
any instructions provided for
cleaning or use of sanitizing
solution. Do not leave any
solution inside the icemaker after
cleaning.
DO NOT turn the ice machine
upside down to dry! This will
cause the oils from the
compressor to shift, which can
result in the machine breaking or
becoming inoperable.
