Exterior cleaning The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and warm water solution such as 1 oz. of dishwashing liquid mixed with 2 gallons of warm water. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a soft clean towel to prevent water spotting. If the door panel is stainless steel, it may discolor when exposed to chlorine gas and moisture. Clean stainless steel with a mild detergent and warm water solution and a damp cloth. Never use an abrasive cleaning agent. Interior cleaning The ice storage bin should be sanitized occasionally. Clean the water trough before the ice maker is used first time and reused after stopping for an extended period of time. It is usually convenient to sanitize the trough after the ice making system has been cleaned, and the ice storage bin is empty. 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 unit and ice bin with a sanitizing solution made of 1 ounce of household bleach or chlorine and 2 gallons of hot (95ºF - 115ºF) water. 3. Pull off the drain hose of the water trough to drain off all water. 4. Rinse thoroughly with clear water. 5. After draining off all water, put back the drain hose of the water trough to the original location. 6. Put the ice storage bin inside the unit. Right location of the drain hose 7. Reconnect power to the unit. The ice scoop should be washed regularly. Wash it just like any other food container. 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 failure. Have the condenser cleaned at least once every six months. 1. Unplug the ice maker or disconnect power. 2. Gently pull off the lower front louver. 3. Remove dirt and lint from the condenser and the unit compartment with the brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner. 4. Reassemble the lower front louver. 5. Plug in the ice maker or reconnect power.
