Cleaning And Sanitizing Instructions; Cleaning Procedure - Hoshizaki KM-1301SWH/3 Instruction Manual

B. Cleaning and Sanitizing Instructions
The icemaker must be cleaned and sanitized at least once a year. More frequent
cleaning and sanitizing may be required in some water conditions.
• To prevent injury to individuals and damage to the icemaker, do not use ammonia
type cleaners.
• Carefully follow any instructions provided with the bottles of cleaning and
sanitizing solution.
• Always wear liquid-proof gloves and goggles to prevent the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions from coming into contact with skin or eyes.
To prevent damage to the water pump seal, do not leave the control switch in the
"WASH" position for extended periods when the water tank is empty.
• The cleaning valve is opened during cleaning and sanitizing to allow solution flow
to the inside of the evaporator. It should be closed for all icemaking operation. The
compressor will not operate unless this valve is completely closed.
• To close the cleaning valve, the valve handle should be at a right angle to the
valve body. To open the cleaning valve, the valve handle should be parallel to the
valve body.
