1. Icemaker and Storage Bin

•Hoshizaki recommends cleaning this icemaker at least twice a year. More frequent cleaning, however, may be required in some existing water conditions.

•The storage bin is for ice use only. Do not store anything else in the bin.

2. Air Filter

A plastic mesh air filter removes dirt and dust from the air and keeps the condenser from getting clogged. As the filter gets clogged, the icemaker's performance will be reduced. Check the filter at least twice a month. When clogged, use warm water and a neutral cleaner to wash the filter.

3. Condenser

Check the condenser once a year, and clean if necessary by using a brush or vacuum cleaner. More frequent cleaning may be required depending on the location of the icemaker.

4.Stainless Steel Exterior

To prevent corrosion, wipe the exterior occasionally with a clean, soft cloth. Use a damp cloth containing a neutral cleaner to wipe off oil or dirt build up.
