Caring For Your Ice Maker
Periodically inspect and clean the ice maker to keep
it operating at peak efficiency and to prevent
premature failure of system components.
Both the ice making system and the air cooled
condenser need to be cleaned regularly.
The minerals rejected from the circulating water
during the freezing cycle will eventually form a hard
scaly deposit in the water system which prevents a
rapid release of the ice from the freezing plate.
Clean the ice and water system periodically to
remove mineral scale buildup. Frequency of cleaning
depends on water hardness. With hard water (15 to
20 grains/gal. [4 to 5 grains/liter]), cleaning may be
required as frequently as every 6 months.
Cleaning Exterior Surfaces
Wash the exterior enamel surfaces and gaskets with
warm water and mild soap or detergent. Wipe and
dry. Regular use of a good household appliance
cleaner and wax will help protect the finish.
Do not use abrasive cleaners on enamel surfaces as
they may scratch the finish.
Cleaning the Ice Maker System
1. Push the selector switch to OFF.
2. Wait 5 to 10 minutes for the ice to fall into the
storage bin. Remove all ice from the storage bin.
3. Unscrew the drain cap from the bottom of the
water pan located inside the storage bin as shown.
Allow the water to drain completely.
4. Replace the drain cap. Pour 16 ounces of
Scotsman Clear 1 scale remover into the water pan.
Fill the bottle twice with tap water and pour it into the
water pan.

5. Push the selector switch to CLEAN. (See the
"Setting the Controls" section.) The light will turn on,
indicating that the cleaning cycle is in process. When
the indicator light turns off (approximately 45
minutes), the cleaning cycle is complete. During the
cleaning cycle, the system will both clean and rinse
itself.
6. After the cleaning cycle is complete, remove the
drain cap from the water pan to see if any cleaning
solution is left in the water pan. If cleaning solution
drains from the water pan, you should run the clean
cycle again.
NOTE: Severe scale buildup may require repeated
cleaning with a fresh quantity of cleaning solution.
7. Push the selector switch to ON to resume ice
production.
