machine at main power switch, on models ICEU
36 - 46 - 56 - 66 - 86 - 106, and on master switch
on models ICEU 126 - 146 - 186 - 206.
3.
Scoop out all the ice cubes stored into the
bin in order to prevent them from being
contaminated with the cleaning solution.
4.
Remove the plastic cup located on the
bottom of sump/freezing chamber to drain out all
water and scale deposits.

Remove the curtain then, using a bottle,
poor fresh water into the bottom of the sump/
freezing chamber to clean out any possible scale
deposit.
6.
Install again the curtain as well as the
bottom plastic cup.

Prepare the cleaning solution by diluting in
a plastic container one or two liters of warm water
(45°-50°C) with a 0,1-0,2 liters of Ice Machine
Cleaner (on ICEU 36 - 46 - 56 - 66 - 86 - 106 - 126)
and 0,2-0,3 liters on ICEU 146 - 186 - 206.
WARNING. The Ice Machine Cleaner
contains Phosphoric and Hydroxyacetic
acids.
These compounds are corrosive and may
cause burns if swallowed, DO NOT indu-

1.
Switch ON again the machine at main power
switch to start the icemaking process.
Allow the ice maker to operate for about 20
minutes. Then turn the cleaning toggle switch to
the "cleaning" position (II) till the release of the
ice cubes from their cups then glace it again to
"operating" position (I).
NOTE. The amount of Cleaner and the time
needed for the cleaning of water system
depends of the water conditions.
2.
Turn the cube size control knob
counterclockwise to the OFF position to shut-off
the ice maker then flush out the cleaning solution
from the sump reservoir then pour onto the
evaporator cavity two or three liters of clean
potable water to rinse the mold cups and the
platen.
3.
If necessary remove the water spray platen
to clean it separately.
4.
Turn again the cube size control knob to the
normal operating position (black dot). The water
pump is again in operation to circulate the water
in order to rinse the entire water system.
Do this operation twice so to be sure no more
traces of descaling solution remains into the
sump.
Pour on the upper side of the evaporator platen
fresh water with a capfull of disinfectant solution
then turn again the machine in normal operating
mode so to sanitize all the water system for
approx. 10 minutes.
NOTE. Do not mix descaling with disinfectant
solution to avoid the generation of a very
aggressive acid.
5.
Flush out the disinfectant solution from the
sump reservoir then with the switch in "cleaning"
position (II), turn the cube size control knob to the
normal operating position.
When water starts overflowing through the
drain line, set the switch to "operation"
