PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE CLEANING PROCEDURE QF400

Use Ice machine cleaner part number 000000084 only. This cleaner is used to remove lime scale or other mineral deposits. It is not used to remove algae or slime. Refer to “Cleaning/Sanitizing Procedure” for removal of algae and slime. To initiate a cleaning cycle using Manitowoc’s Cleaning Technology use the following procedure.

Step 1 Set the toggle switch to the OFF position. Open the bin door and remove the 2 thumbscrews and white plastic panel.

Step 2 To start a cleaning cycle, move the toggle switch to the CLEAN position. Water will flow through the water dump valve and down the drain. The flush, gear motor, speed, dump valve and water solenoid lights will energize to indicate the ice machine is in the clean mode.

Step 3 Wait about one minute or until the dump valve light de-energizes. Lift the front cover on the water reservoir and add the proper amount of Manitowoc Ice Machine Cleaner.

Step 4 The ice machine will automatically time out four flush and rinse cycles, and then stop. The flush light remains energized until the toggle switch is moved to the OFF position. This entire cycle lasts approximately 11 minutes.

NOTE: Periodic cleaning must be performed on adjacent surface areas not contacted by the water distribution system.

Manitowoc recommends disassembling, cleaning and sanitizing the ice machine and bin/dispenser every six months.

NOTE: The ice machine may be set to start and finish a cleaning procedure, and then automatically start ice making again. Wait about one minute into the cleaning cycle (until the dump valve light de-energizes), then move the switch from CLEAN to ICE position.

When the cleaning cycle is complete, the flush light will de-energize and ice making will start automatically
