Cleaning / Sanitizing Procedure
CLEANING PROCEDURE
Ice machine cleaner is used to remove lime scale and
mineral deposits. Ice machine sanitizer disinfects and
removes algae and slime.
NOTE: Although not required and dependant on your
installation, removing the ice machine top cover may
allow easier access.
Step 1 Open the front door to access the evaporator..
Ice must not be on the evaporator during the clean/
sanitize cycle. Follow one of the methods below:
• Press the power switch at the end of a harvest cycle
after ice falls from the evaporator(s).
• Press the power switch and allow the ice to melt.
Step 2 Remove all ice from the bin/dispenser.
Step 3 Press the clean switch. Water will flow through
the water dump valve and down the drain. Wait until the
water trough refills and the display indicates add solution
(approximately 1 minute), then add the proper amount of
ice machine cleaner.
Step 4 Wait until the clean cycle is complete
(approximately 24 minutes). Then disconnect power to
the ice machine (and dispenser when used).
Step 5 Remove parts for cleaning.
Please refer to the proper parts removal for your
ice machine. Continue with step 6 when the parts
