Interior Cleaning
The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the water trough before the ice maker is used for the 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 power to the unit.
2.Open the door and take out the removable storage bin. With a clean cloth, wipe down the interior of the unit with a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce of household bleach and 2 gallons of hot water (95º to 115ºF).
3.Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
4.Put the cleaned and empty ice storage bin back inside the unit.
5.Reconnect power to the unit.
The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other utensil.
DO NOT use
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.
1.Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power.
2.Remove the 2 screws at the bottom of the front cover and gently pull it off.
3.Locate the condenser filter. This can be lifted out and cleaned with a brush or flowing water.
4. Remove dirt and lint condenser fins
and the unit compartment with a brush
attachment on a vacuum cleaner.
5. Put back the filter and reassemble the front cover.
6. Plug in the icemaker or reconnect power.
DO NOT touch the condenser fins. They are sharp and can be damaged easily.
