Sanitizing the Ice-Making System
1. Turn off power to the ice maker.
2. Remove all ice cubes from the storage bin.
3. Prepare a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce of household bleach and 2 gallons of hot water
95ºF (35ºC) to115ºF (46 ºC). Remove the flake covers and slide away from the water bin and
wipe the entire bin inside and out, covering the entire surface of the walls.
4. Fill a spray bottle with the sanitizing solution and spray all corners and edges, making sure to
cover all surfaces with the solution. Soak the flake cover and slide away in the solution and
put back in place after drying.
5. Keep the ice maker connected to the water supply. Turn on the power to the ice maker.
Within 5 minutes, press the CLEAN button. The machine will run the Automatic Clean mode.
6. Allow 30 minutes for proper cleaning. After cleaning, shut off the power switch, and unscrew
the nut of the water-draining hole. Drain off the waste water to some container, and then
screw the nut on tightly when the waste water is fully drained off.
7. The dirty water must be drained out completely. Perform steps 2 and 3 in the Interior
Cleaning section.
8. Repeat steps 5 to 7 above three times with fresh water to rinse the ice-making system
completely.
9. Reassemble the front cover.
10. Turn on the power again. The machine will return to the regular ice making mode. Discard the
first batch of ice.
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.
1. Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power.
2. Gently pull off the lower front louver.
3. Remove dirt and lint from the condenser and the
unit compartment with the brush attachment of a
vacuum cleaner.
4. Reassemble the lower front louver.
5. Plug in the ice maker or reconnect power.
