1. Disconnect the power to the unit.
2. Open the door and take out the removable ice storage bin. With a clean cloth,
wipe down the interior of the unit with a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce of house-
hold bleach and 2 gallons of hot water (95ºF to 115ºF).
3. Rinse thoroughly with clear water.
4. Connect a hose to the drain outlet at the rear of the unit to drain water com-
pletely.
5. Put the ice storage bin inside the unit.
6. Reconnect power to the unit.
The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other food container.
WARNING:DO NOT use solvent-based cleaning agents or abrasives on the interior.
These cleaners may transmit taste to the ice cubes and damage or discolor the inte-
rior.
Condenser Cleaning
A dirty or clogged condenser prevents proper
airflow, reduces ice making capacity, and
causes higher-than-recommended operating
temperatures that may lead to component fail-
ure. Have the condenser cleaned at least once
every six months.
1. Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power.
2. Remove the 2 screws on the front cover and gently pull it off.
3. Locate the condenser filter. This can be lifted out and cleaned with a brush or
flowing water.
4. Remove dirt and lint from condenser fins and the unit compartment with a brush
attachment on a vacuum cleaner.
5. Put back the filter and reassemble the front cover.
6. Plug in the ice maker or reconnect power.
WARNING: DO NOT touch the condenser fins. They are sharp and can be damaged
easily.
Water Distribution Tube Cleaning
When you find that the ice cubes are incompletely formed or the output of ice
cubes is low, the water distribution tube may be blocked. Set the Power switch to
OFF, rotate the water distribution tube, and locate the holes in the distribution tube.
Using a toothpick or similar tool, dredge the holes, then rotate the water distribution
tube back to its original position. If the tube is badly blocked, clean it as follows:
1. Shut off the water supply.
2. Disconnect the water hose from the distribution tube.
3. Lift the right side up, then remove the distribution tube.
