Exterior Cleaning
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent
and warm water solution such as 1 oz
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.
Stainless
steel can discolor
when exposed
to chlorine
gas and moisture.
Clean
stainless
steel with a mild detergent
and warm water solution
and a damp cloth. Never use an
abrasive cleaning agent.
Interior Cleaning
The ice storage bin should be sanitized
occasionally.
Clean the trough before the ice maker is
used for the first time and 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 and the storage
bin is empty.

2.
Disconnect
the power to the unit.
Open the door and take out the removable
ice storage bin. With a clean cloth, wipe down the
interior
of the unit with a sanitizing
solution
made of 1 ounce of household
bleach
and 2
gallons of hot water (95°F to l15°F).
3.
Rinse thoroughly with clear water.
4.
Screw off the drainage nut to drain water completely
into a bucket or a drain line through the
drain water hose if there is a drain line near the unit.
5.
Put the ice storage bin inside the unit.
6.
Reconnect
power to the unit.
The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other food container.
DO NOT use solvent-based
cleaning agents or abrasives
on the interior. These cleaners may transmit taste to the
ice cubes and damage or discolor the interior.
Condenser Cleaning
A dirty or clogged condenser
prevents proper
airflow, reduces ice making capacity, and causes
higher-than-recommended
operating
temperatures
that may lead to component
failure. Have the
condenser
cleaned at least once every six months.
