mildew growth as well as sanitize the ice machine for
storage or when it is put back into service. See page 17 for

water valve. (See Figure 40a).
3. Change the electronic control to the "CLEAN" position
for approximately one (1) 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.
6. Remove the access cover from the rear of the ice
machine. (See Figure 41).
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.
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.
Do not use any type of anti-freeze or other solution as a
substitution for properly draining the ice machine.
