6.Pour 1/2 gallon (1.9 L) of hot tap water into the water pan* and turn the Cycle Control Knob to “CLEAN.” This warms up the system to make the cleaning solution more effective. Let circulate for five minutes. While tap water is circulating, prepare the cleaning solution. Mix: 6 oz. (170 g) powdered citric or phosphoric acid into 1/2 gallon (1.9 L) hot water. (Citric and phosphoric acid crystals are available or can be ordered from many pharmacies or scientific supply houses.)

Commercial ice machine cleaners (liquid) are also available from your dealer or refrigeration parts supply stores. Mix according to instructions on label (total quantity 1/2 gallon [1.9 L]).

7.Turn the Cycle Control Knob to “OFF” and drain the water pan. (See step 5.)

8.Turn the Cycle Control Knob to “CLEAN” and slowly pour the hot cleaning solution into the water pan.* (If the solution foams while pouring, wait until the foaming stops.) Then add the balance of the solution.

Allow the solution to circulate until the scale has dissolved (15 to 20 minutes). Severe scale build- up may require repeated cleaning with a fresh quantity of cleaning solution.

To clean scale off the side flanges of the freezing plate, use rubber gloves and scrub with a non- abrasive plastic scrubbing pad or nylon brush dipped in cleaning solution.

9.Keep rubber gloves on to drain the cleaning solution. Turn the Cycle Control Knob to “OFF” and drain the water pan. (See step 5.)

10.Replace the plug and add 1/2 gallon (1.9 L) of fresh water.* Set Cycle Control Knob on “CLEAN,” circulate five minutes and drain. Repeat rinsing process.

*For easier pouring of water and cleaning solution, use a 1- or 2-cup container.
