What Should be Kept Clean?
There are 5 things to keep clean:
1. The exterior
2. The ice bin and water trough
3. The condenser
4. The water distribution tube
5. The ice-making system
Exterior Cleaning
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water solution such as 1
ounce of dishwashing liquid mixed with 2 gallons of warm water. Do not use solvent based or
abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft clean towel to
prevent water spotting. If the door panel has a stainless finish, it can discolor when exposed to
chlorine gas and moisture. Clean stainless finish with a cloth dampened with a mild detergent and
warm water solution. Never use an abrasive cleaning agent.
Ice Bin and Water Trough Cleaning
The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the water trough before the ice maker is
used for the first time or reused after stopping for an extended period of time. It is usually convenient
to sanitize the trough after the ice making system has been cleaned (see section Ice Making System
Cleaning) and the ice storage bin is empty.
1. Disconnect power to the unit.
2. Open the door and take out the removable storage bin. With a clean cloth, wipe down the interior
of the unit with a sanitizing solution made of a mild detergent and hot water (95º F to 115º F).
3. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
4. Put the cleaned and empty ice storage bin back inside the unit.
5. Reconnect power to the unit.
The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other utensil.
Warning: DO NOT use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior. These cleaners
may transmit taste to the ice cubes, or damage or discolor the interior.
Warning: Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line
of the unit is disconnected and the water line is shut off. (EXCEPTION: Cleaning of ice-making
system)
