Maintenance / Storage, Vacation and Moving 19 Inlet Screen Cleaning - Every Year The solenoid valve inlet screen must be cleaned at least once each year as follows: 1 Shut off the water at the water supply valve. 2 Pull the unit out to access the back panel. 3 Disconnect electrical power to the unit. 4 Disconnect the entire hose connector from the water solenoid valve (see Figure 33). 5 Use a tooth brush to clean sediment from the inlet screen. DO NOT remove the screen. 6 Re-connect the water supply line to the water solenoid valve. Tighten connector securely. Open the water supply valve and check for leakage at the water connection. Make sure the water supply line is not kinked. 7 Reconnect power to the unit before reinstalling. 8 Make sure the drain system is working properly and the drain hose is not pinched or kinked. Pour one gallon of cool, fresh water into the ice bin. The water should drain freely. If your ice maker is equipped with a drain pump, the pump should drain the ice bin. Draining for non-use If the unit is to be stored, moved or not used for extended periods, it will be necessary to drain the system of water. WARNING Electrical Shock Hazard. Disconnect power before servicing. Before operating replace all panels. Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock. 1 Disconnect power from the unit. 2 Remove ice from the storage bin. 3 Shut off water supply at the main water source. NOTE Back panel must be removed prior to disconnecting the water lines. 4 Disconnect the inlet and outlet lines to the water valve and allow them to drain. CAUTION If the ambient temperature is expected to drop below 45°F (7°C), drain all water from the unit to prevent freezing damage, which is not covered by the warranty. WATER CONNECTION Figure 33 UL103_CO IMPORTANT The use of antifreeze or other products of this nature is not necessary and is not recommended. 5 Reconnect inlet and outlet lines to the water valve. 6 Replace back panel. 7 Drain water from the water trough and drain line by removing the overflow tube (see Figure 32). 8 Clean the ice maker and storage bin before next use. 9 Prop door open to allow for air circulation and prevent mold and mildew.
