PREPARING THE ICE
MACHINE FOR STORAGE
If the ice machine is moved, not used
for an extended period of time, or will
be in an area that will be near freezing
temperatures, it is necessary to remove
any remaining water in the ice-making
system.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard. Risk
of electrical shock or personal
injury could occur due to
moving components, if machine
compartment access cover is
removed before unplugging the ice
machine.
CAUTION
This ice machine must have all water
drained and removed to prevent ice
machine damage as well as possible
water damage to the surrounding
area in freezing conditions. These
damages are not covered under
warranty.
CAUTION
Do not use any type of anti-freeze or
other solution as a substitution for
properly draining the ice machine.
Clean the Ice Machine
Cleaning the ice machine will help prevent
mold and mildew growth as well as
sanitize the ice machine for storage or
when it is put back into service.
Draining and Removing Water
from the Ice-Making System with
a Gravity Drain.
1. Turn off the water supply to the ice
machine.
2. Disconnect the water supply fitting at
the inlet of the water valve (Figure 2).
3. Change the electronic control to the
“CLEAN” position for approximately
one minute. This will energize and
open the water valve and remove
most of the water from the water
valve and the water valve’s outlet
water line to the reservoir.
4. Change the electronic control to the
“OFF” position. This will energize
and open the drain valve to drain the
reservoir and the ice machine drain
system.
5. Unplug the ice machine from the
electrical outlet.
