1. CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
1. HOSHIZAKI recommends cleaning this unit at least once a year. More
frequent cleaning, however, may be required in some existing water
conditions.
2. To prevent injury to individuals and damage to the icemaker, do not use
ammonia type cleaners.
3. Always wear liquid-proof gloves for safe handling of the cleaning and
sanitizing solution. This will prevent irritation in case the solution contacts
with skin.
