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.
Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power.
1.
Gently pull off the lower front louver. (On MIM50-O only
2.
remove two screws securing front louver and then remove
louver.)
Remove dirt and lint from the condenser and the unit
3.
compartment with the brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner.
Reassemble the lower front louver.
4.
Plug in the ice maker or reconnect power.
5.

Water Distribution Tube Cleaning

When you find the ice cubes are incompletely formed or the output is low, the water distribution tube may be blocked.
Turn off the power button, gently take out the water distribution tube, locate the holes in the distribution tube and use a
pointed object such as a toothpick to dredge the holes. Then put the water distribution tube back to its original position.
If the tube is badly blocked, clean it as follows:
Shut off the water supply.
1.
Disconnect the water hose from the distribution tube.
2.
Gently take out the distribution tube.
3.
With a brush, clean the tube with a dilute solution of warm water and a mild detergent such as dishwashing
4.
liquid. After removing the dirt and lint from the surface, rinse the tube with clean water.
Replace the distribution tube.
5.
Reconnect the water supply.

Ice-Making System Cleaning and Sanitizing

Minerals that are removed from the water during the freezing cycle will eventually form a hard, scaly deposit in the
water system. Cleaning the system regularly helps remove the mineral scale buildup. How often to clean the system
depends upon how hard your water is or how effective your filtration may be. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/gal.
(4 to 5 grains/liter), you may need to clean the system as often as once every 6 months.
Make sure that all the ice is off the evaporator. If ice is being formed, wait until the cycle is completed, then
1.
press the ice maker's ON/OFF switch on the control panel.
Remove all ice from the storage bin.
2.
Keep the ice maker connected to the water supply. Pour 8 oz. of Nickel-Safe Ice Machine Cleaner Solution into
3.
the water trough. Then press the ON/OFF switch and the CLEAN button, initiating the wash cycle. The ice
maker will run in the Automatic Clean Mode.
