Note: Never keep anything in the ice storage bin that is not ice: objects like wine or beer bottles are
not only unsanitary, but the labels may slip off and plug up the drain.
Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage
If the icemaker will not be used for a long time, or is to be moved to another place, it will be
necessary to drain the system of water.
1. Shut off the water supply at the main water source.
2. Disconnect the water supply line from the water inlet.
3. Shut off the electric supply at the main electrical power source.
4. Take out the ice storage bin to remove ice and water. Dry it.
5. Pull off the water trough’s drainage tube to drain off all water. Dry out the trough.
6. Leave the door open to allow for circulation and to prevent mold and mildew.
7. Leave the water supply line and power cord disconnected until ready to reuse.
Cleaning and Maintenance
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, and long life. The
maintenance intervals listed are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals
if you have pets, or there are other special considerations.
What Should be Kept Clean?
There are 5 things to keep clean:
1. The exterior
2. The interior
3. The condenser
4. Water distribution tube
5. The ice-making system
Caution: The icemaker must be thoroughly cleaned if it has been left unused for a long time. Follow
carefully any instructions provided for cleaning or use of sanitizing solution. Do not leave any
solution inside the icemaker after cleaning.
Warning: Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line
of the unit is disconnected and the water line is shut off. (EXCEPTION: Cleaning of the ice-making
system)
