VI. Cleaning and Maintenance Instructions
1. Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage
IMPORTANT
When shutting off the icemaker for an extended time, drain out all water from
the water line and remove the ice from the storage bin. The storage bin
should be cleaned and dried. Drain the icemaker to prevent damage to the
water supply line at sub-freezing temperatures, using a foot or hand pump.
Shut off the icemaker until the proper ambient temperature is resumed.
• When the icemaker is not used for two or three days, it is sufficient to only move the control
switch to the “OFF” position, unless the icemaker will be at sub-freezing temperatures.
[1] On water-cooled models only, first remove the water from the water-cooled condenser:
1) Remove the front panel.
2) Move the control switch on the control box to the “OFF” position.
3) Wait 3 minutes.
4) Move the control switch to the “ICE” position.
5) Allow 5 minutes for the icemaker to fill with water and the water pump to start
operating.
6) Close the water-cooled condenser water supply line shut-off valve.
7) Open the drain valve for the water-cooled condenser water supply line.
8) Allow the line to drain by gravity.
9) Attach compressed air or carbon dioxide supply to the condenser water line drain valve.
10) Blow the water-cooled condenser out using compressed air or carbon dioxide until
water stops coming out.
