MAINTENANCE
It is recommended that the air inlet filter be cleaned ever 3 months or sooner, depending on the operating envi-
ronment for proper refrigeration system performance. On air-cooled units. also check that the condenser is free
of dirt/foreign material that could cause air flow blockage. Consult the MAINTENANCE/ADJUSTMENT PROCE-
DURES for cleaning these items.
Cleaning of the icemaker is recommended on a regular basis not only for sanitary reasons but also to maintain
the performance of the unit. Build-up of lime and scale can hinder icemaking production rates and interfere with
proper dispensing of the ice. See the CLEANING SECTION for the recommended procedure.
periodically, check the vending area sink for proper water drainage. Remove any foreign material from the sink
to prevent drain blockage.
