6. Wipe down the interior of the water sump with the de-scaling solution and warm
water. Rinse thoroughly with clear water.

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
upon how hard your water is or how
effective your filtration may be. With hard
water of 15 to 20 grains/gal. (4 to 5
grains/liter), you may need to clean the
system as often as every 6 months.
1. Turn off power to the ice maker. Keep the ice maker connected to the water supply
and drainpipe.
2. Open the door and scoop out all of the ice cubes. Either discard them or save them in
an ice chest or cooler.
3. Remove the 2 screws in the front cover and push for-
ward to remove the front cover. Locate the control box.
NOTES: Do not use too much force, as the wire leads
connected to the power switch can be inadvertently
disconnected.
Use care in the area of the control box. Do not expose
it to moisture.
4. Turn on the power to the ice maker. Pour 8 oz. of
Nickel-Safe Ice Machine Cleaner solution into the
water sump. Add 8 oz. of tap water. After
about 5 minutes, press down the “Clean”
button on the Control Box. (See figures
here and on page 24.) The machine will
run the Automatic Clean Mode.
