Manitowoc’s Patented Cleaning or Sanitizing
Technology
Manitowoc ice machines include technology that
allows the initiation and completion of a cleaning or
sanitizing cycle at the flip of a switch. This cycle will
permit cleaning or sanitizing of all surfaces that come
in contact with the water distribution system. Periodic
maintenance must be performed that includes
sanitizing the bin (or dispenser) and adjacent surface
areas, which cannot be contacted by the water
distribution system.
This technology will also allow initiation and
completion of a Clean or Sanitize cycle, after which the
ice machine automatically starts ice making again.
Refer to the cleaning or sanitizing procedure for
complete details.
The AuCS
®
Accessory can be set to automatically
start and finish a Clean or Sanitize cycle every 2, 4, or
12 weeks. This accessory monitors ice-making cycles
and initiates a cleaning or sanitizing cycle
automatically. After completion of the cleaning or
sanitizing cycle, the ice machine returns to ice making
automatically. Refer to Automatic Cleaning System
(AuCS
®
) Accessory for further details.
