16)After the gear motor starts, turn off the power supply. Remove the front panel, then move the control switch to the "DRAIN" position. Replace the front panel in its correct position.

17)Turn on the power supply and allow the water system to drain for 5 minutes.

Note: If you do not sanitize the unit, go to step 14 in "III.A.5. Sanitizing Procedure ‑ Final."

18) Turn off the power supply, then close the icemaker water supply line shut-off valve.

3. Sanitizing Solution

IMPORTANT

For safety and maximum effectiveness, use the solution immediately after dilution.

Dilute 2.5 fl. oz. (74 ml or 5 tbs) of a 5.25% sodium hypochlorite solution (chlorine bleach) with 5 gal. (19 l) of warm water.

4.Sanitizing Procedure - Initial

1)Make sure the power supply is off and the icemaker water supply line shut-off valve is closed. Remove the front and top panels, then move the power switch to the "OFF" position.

2)Remove the strap connecting the spout to the chute assembly, then remove the spout. Remove the packing at the top of the cylinder and also remove the packing between the spout and the chute.

3)Pour the sanitizing solution over the extruding head until the evaporator assembly and the reservoir are full and the solution starts to overflow into the drain pan.

4)Remove the proximity switch from the chute assembly, then remove the chute assembly from the icemaker.

5)Remove the packing at the bottom of the chute. Remove the 3 ties and the chute insulation.

6)Remove the 2 baffles.

7)Remove the plate from the top of the chute, then remove the bin control assembly by sliding it slightly towards the chute opening and lifting it off.

8)Disassemble the bin control assembly by removing the 2 snap pins, shaft, and actuator.

9)Soak the spout, packings, chute, baffles, plate, and bin control assembly in the sanitizing solution for 10 minutes then wipe them down.

10)Rinse the parts thoroughly with clean water.

CAUTION

If the solution is left on these parts, they will rust.

11) Replace all parts in their correct positions.

IMPORTANT

When installing the baffles, make sure that the bent surface (the one without the studs) faces the actuator so that the bent surface can guide the ice to the center of the actuator.
