Ice Maker System
Minerals that are removed from 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 often you need to clean the system depends upon
how hard your water is. With hard water of 15 to 20 grains/gal.
(4 to 5 grains/liter), you may need to clean the system as often as
every 6 months.
NOTE: Use one 16 oz (473 mL) bottle of NU-CALGON* Nickel
Safe Ice Machine Cleaner.
1. Push the selector switch to OFE
2. Wait 5 to 10 minutes for the ice to fall into the storage bin.
Remove all ice from the storage bin.
3. Unscrew the drain cap from the bottom of the water pan
located inside the storage bin as shown. Allow the water to
drain completely.
4. Replace the drain cap securely on the water pan. If the drain
cap is loose, water will empty from the water pan and you will
have either thin ice or no ice.
5. Read and follow all handling information on the cleaner bottle
before completing the steps below. Use one 16 oz (473 mL)
bottle of NU-CALGON* Nickel Safe Ice Machine Cleaner.
6. Pour one bottle of solution into the water pan. Fill the bottle
twice with tap water and pour it into the water pan.
Condenser
A dirty or clogged condenser:
• Prevents proper airflow.
• Reduces ice making capacity.
• Causes higher than recommended operating temperatures
which may lead to component failure.
Electricam Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before cleaning.
Repmace aH panemsbefore operating.
Faimure to do so can resumt in death or electricam shock.
1. Unplug ice maker or disconnect power.
2. Remove the two screws in the lower access panel and the
two screws from the base grille area of the front panel
support. Pull forward to remove the lower access panel.
3. Pull the bottom forward and then pull down to remove the
lower access panel.
A. Waterpan
B. Drain cap
7. Push the selector switch to CLEAN. (See the "Using the
Controls" section.) The light will turn on, indicating that the
cleaning cycle is in process. When the indicator light turns off
(approximately 45 minutes), the cleaning cycle is complete.
During the cleaning cycle, the system will both clean and
rinse itself.
8. After the cleaning cycle is complete, remove the drain cap
from the water pan to see if any cleaning solution is left in the
water pan. If cleaning solution drains from the water pan, you
should run the clean cycle again. Be sure to replace the drain
cap securely on the water pan. If the drain cap is loose, water
will empty from the water pan and you will have either thin ice
or no ice.
NOTE: Severe scale buildup may require repeated cleaning with
a fresh quantity of cleaning solution.
9. Push the selector switch to ON to resume ice production.
Remove dirt and lint from the condenser fins and the unit
compartment with a brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner.
5. Replace the lower access panel using the four screws.
6. Plug in ice maker or reconnect power.
