CLEANING PROCEDURES
Approved ice machine cleaners by brand names:
S Lime–A–Way
S Calgon Nickel Safe (green color only)
NOTE: All ice machine cleaners labeled safe for nickel ARE NOT the brand CALGON NICKEL SAFE.
CAUTION: Ice machine cleaners are acidic-based chemicals. Before beginning any
cleaning of the cuber, the ice in the storage bin or dispenser must be removed.
WARNING: When using any chemical, rubber gloves and eye protection should be worn.
PREP – CLEANING
Use full-strength ice machine cleaner on a coarse-surface cloth material (such as terry cloth) and wipe down the
inside wall of the evaporator area, the water pan, the water curtain and evaporator plastic extrusions. If the wa-
ter distributor tube has heavy scale build-up, remove and soak it in full-strength ice machine cleaner (or ex-
change the tube and clean the scaled tube at a later date).
Cleaning the Water System and Evaporator
1. Set the switch to Clean and allow any ice on the evaporator to release and melt away.
2. Remove all ice from the storage bin.
3. Remove the water curtain(s), pour 1/2 oz. of ice machine cleaner down the rear key-slot openings. The
cleaner will drain into the water pan.
4. Return the water curtain(s) to their proper operating positions.
5. Add 3 oz. for a single evaporator, or 5 oz. for a dual evaporator of “Calgon Nickel Safe” or “Lime-A-Way”
ice machine cleaner directly into the water pan. The float will balance with inlet water. Set switch to
CLEAN, circulate for a maximum of 15 minutes.
6. Depress and hold the dump switch to allow the cleaner to drain away.
7. Fill the water pan with clean fresh water, circulate for approximately 3 minutes. Depress and hold the
DUMP switch and allow the water to drain away. Repeat the procedure 3 times.
8. After third rinse cycle, place product power switch in ice position. Allow Cuber to produce one slab of ice –
DISCARD THE ICE.
9. When the clean cycle is complete, return cuber to normal operating mode.
NOTE: Please Take Note of the Following:
S Ice machines should only be cleaned when needed, not by a timed schedule of every 60 days, etc.
S Should your ice machine require cleaning more than twice a year, consult your distributor or dealer about
proper water treatment.
