The light will blink, indicating that the cleaning cycle is in
process. When the indicator light turns green (approximately
70 minutes), the cleaning cycle is complete. During the
cleaning cycle, the system will both clean and rinse itself.
8. After the cleaning cycle is complete, remove the drain cap
from the water pan. Look for any cleaning solution left in the
water pan. If cleaning solution drains from the water pan, you
should run the clean cycle again. Be sure to replace the drain
cap securely on the water pan. If the drain cap is loose, water
will empty from the water pan and you will have either thin ice
or no ice.
NOTE: Severe scale buildup may require repeated cleaning with
a fresh quantity of cleaning solution.

• Reduces ice making capacity.
• Causes higher than recommended operating temperatures
which may lead to component failure.

Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.
