MAINTENANCE
CLEANING AND MAINTAINING THE UNIT
Perform periodic cleaning and proper maintenance to ensure efficiency,
top performance, and long life. The maintenance intervals listed in this
manual are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the
intervals if you have pets or if you have other special considerations.
•Periodically vacuum dust and dirt from the condenser, which is located
behind the grill at the bottom front of the unit.
•Regularly inspect plumbing connections to ensure that no leaks exist.
•Disconnect the water supply line if the ice machine will not be used for a
long period of time.
•Never keep anything in the ice storage bin that is not ice. Objects such as
wine and beer bottles are not sanitary and could damage the interior.
CLEANING THE UNIT'S EXTERIOR
Clean the door and cabinet with a mild detergent and warm-water solution,
such as 1oz. (28 g) of dish-washing liquid mixed with 2 gallons of warm
water. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge
and rinse the unit with clean water. Wipe the unit with a soft, clean towel
to prevent water spotting.
Clean stainless steel with a mild detergent, a warm-water solution, and a
damp cloth. Never use an abrasive cleaning agent.
CLEANING THE UNIT'S INTERIOR
When necessary, defrost and thoroughly clean the inside of the unit with
mild soap and water. Do not use electrical heating devices or sharp or
pointed tools when defrosting the unit.
When defrosting or leaving the unit turned off, leave the door propped
open. Leaving the door open allows air to dry the inside of the cabinet,
reducing the chance for mildew and damage to mold mechanism's
components.
