Water Distribution Tube Cleaning

When you find that the ice cubes are incompletely formed or the output of ice cubes is low, the
water distribution tube may be blocked. Set the power switch to OFF. Unscrew the six screws
holding the top panel and remove the panel. You will see the water distribution tube. Rotate the
water distribution tube so that the holes in it are facing up. Using a toothpick or similar tool,
dredge the holes, then rotate the water distribution tube back to its original position. If the tube is
badly blocked, clean it as follows:
1. Shut off the water and power supplies.
2. Disconnect the water hose from the distribution tube.
3. Lift one side, remove the distribution tube.
4. With a brush, clean the tube with a dilute solution of warm water and a mild detergent
such as dishwashing liquid. After removing the dirt and lint from the surface, rinse the
tube with clean water.
5. Replace the distribution tube.
6. Reconnect the water supply and power supply lines.
7. Re-attach the top panel.

Ice-Making System Cleaning

Minerals that are removed from 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 you need to clean the system depends on how hard your water is or how
effective your filtration may be. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/ gallon (4 to 5 grains/liter),
you may need to clean the system as often as every 3 months.
1. Set the power switch to OFF.
2. Remove all ice cubes from the storage bin.
3. Keep the ice maker connected to the water supply. Pour 8 oz. of Nickel-Safe Ice Maker
Cleaner Solution into the water tank.
4. Turn the power switch ON. Within 3 minutes, press the CLEAN button. The machine will
run the Automatic Clean mode. The green Ice Making and the yellow Ice Harvest LEDs will
blink.
5. The cleaning cycle will continue for 30 minutes unless you press the power switch (you can
press the power switch to stop the cleaning cycle any time during the 30 minutes). After
cleaning, the green Ice Making and yellow Ice Harvest LEDs go on steady and the machine
returns to Stand-by mode.
6. The dirty water must be drained out completely. Perform steps 2 and 3 in the Interior
Cleaning section.
7. Repeat steps 1 to 6 above three times to rinse the ice-making system completely.
NOTE: Do not add Ice Maker Cleaner Solution to the water trough during the rinses.
8. If you want to make ice cubes after cleaning, turn off the power switch, drain off the waste
water, then turn on the power switch. The next ice-making cycle will begin.
9. Discard the first batch of ice.
