These cleaners may transmit taste to the ice cubes and damage or discolor the interior.
Condenser Cleaning
A dirty or clogged condenser prevents proper airow, reduces ice making capacity, and causes higher than recommended
operang 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 o the lower front louver.
3. Remove dirt and lint from the condenser and the unit
compartment with the brush aachment of a vacuum cleaner.

Water Distribuon Tube Cleaning
When you nd the ice cubes are incompletely formed or the output is low, the water distribuon tube may be blocked.
Turn o the power buon, gently take out the water distribuon tube, locate the holes in the distribuon tube and use a
pointed object such as a toothpick to dredge the holes. Then put the water distribuon tube back to its original posion.
If the tube is badly blocked, clean it as follows:
1. Shut o the water supply.
2. Disconnect the water hose from the distribuon tube.
3. Gently take out the distribuon tube.

5. Replace the distribuon tube.
6. Reconnect the water supply.
Ice-Making System Cleaning And Sanizing
Minerals that are removed from the water during the freezing cycle will eventually form a hard, scaly deposit in the
water system. Cleaning the system regularly helps remove the mineral scale buildup. How oen to clean the system
depends upon how hard your water is or how eecve your ltraon may be. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/gal.
(4 to 5 grains/liter), you may need to clean the system as oen as once every 6 months.
1. Make sure that all the ice is o the evaporator. If ice is being formed, wait unl the cycle is completed, then
press the machine’s ON/OFF switch on the control panel.
2. Remove all ice from the storage bin.
3. Keep the ice maker connected to the water supply. Pour 8 oz. of Nickel-Safe Ice Maker Cleaner Soluon into
