3. Empty the storage bin and turn off any other ice
machines on the same bin.
4. After the water fill is complete, turn off the ice
machine.

top of the water level control tube.
8. Return the probes and cap to the water level
control tube.
9. Pour the remaining cleaning solution into the
control stream box.
10. Turn on the ice machine and allow the solution
to circulate for 15 minutes then pull down on the
right side of the water plate. This will cause it to
open and dump the cleaning solution and then
refill with water. Repeat the dump process three
times to be sure all the cleaning solution is rinsed
out of the machine.
