Interior Cleaning
The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the water 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 ice storage bin is empty.
1. Disconnect power to the unit.
2. Open the door and 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 (95º to 115ºF).
3. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
4. Reconnect power to the unit.
The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other utensil.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The sprinkler should only be cleaned when you find
that some of the ice cubes are improperly shaped during ice making.
Cleaning the ice making system should follow cleaning of the sprinkler.
1. Disconnect power to the unit and open the door.
2. Take out the row of flake covers by snapping one end up and pulling
forward.
DO NOT use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on
the interior. These cleaners may transmit taste to the ice
cubes, or damage or discolor the interior.
