Lid Dispenser Cleaning

The lid dispensers are manufactured out of materials that can survive chlorine-based cleaners and warm water
<100°F. Ensure that the parts are thoroughly dried before refilling with lids.
Lid dispenser parts should not be soaked in the power soak washing machine as this will result in the
parts getting scratched. Instead the dispenser parts should be rinsed in warm soapy water when dry.

Ice Chute Cleaning

The Ice chute needs to be cleaned daily to remove buildups.
NOTE: The ice chute has an built-in safety feature which disables the unit when the ice chute cover is
removed. If the ice chute cover is not properly installed the agitator and ice chute gate will not
function.

Removing and Reinstalling the Ice Chute:

1. Grab ice chute and slide up until it comes to a
stop.
2. Pull forward.
3. Properly clean the ice chute. The ice chute is
manufactured out of materials that can survive
chlorine-based cleaners and warm water
<100°F.
IMPORTANT: Do not put the ice chute into a
dishwasher.
4. Replace when finished.
5. If agitator or ice chute does not operate
remove and re-install chute cover.
