Hoshizaki Complete Guide for Maintaining Your Ice Maker with Model KM-260BAH

The plastic mesh air filter removes dirt or 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 it is clogged, use warm water and a neutral cleaner to wash the filter.

[d] CONDENSER (AIR-COOLED MODEL)

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

When the icemaker is not used for two or three days, it is sufficient to only move the control switch to the “OFF” position, unless the icemaker will be at sub-freezing temperatures.
