CLEANING PROCEDURE
Ice machines that are heavily scaled or have not been cleaned on a regular basis will need to run the Heavily Scaled
Cleaning Procedure before this one. Failure to do so may result in binding of the auger as the lime scale releases
from the auger and evaporator barrel.
Ice machine cleaner is used to remove lime scale or other mineral deposits. It is not used to remove algae or slime.
Refer to the “Sanitizing Procedure” for removal of algae and slime.
Step 1 Remove panels and set the ICE/OFF/CLEAN
toggle switch to the OFF position
Step 2 Turn off the water supply to the ice machine.
Step 3 Remove all ice from the bin.
Step 4 Place ICE/OFF/CLEAN toggle switch in the
CLEAN position. The dump valve will open and drain the
water from the evaporator and reservoir.
Step 5 Wait approximately 30 seconds (or until the
evaporator is drained) and place the toggle switch in the
OFF position.
Step 6 Refer to chart and premix the correct solution of
cleaner and cool water for your ice machine
Step 7 Remove the top cover from the ice chute and
pour the cleaner/water solution into the evaporator. Add
the entire amount of premixed solution (excess solution
will exit through the overflow tube in the water
reservoir).
Step 8 Replace the ice chute cover and allow the ice
machine to stand for 30 minutes.
Step 9 Turn on the water supply to the ice machine.
Step 10 Move the toggle switch to the ICE position.
After the 15 minute delay period expires the compressor
will energize and produce ice with the cleaning solution.
Step 11 The ice machine will freeze and discharge the
cleaning solution into the bin. Allow the cycle to run for
15 minutes.
Step 12 Place the toggle switch in the OFF position
and refer to sanitizing procedure.
NOTE: Discard all ice produced during the cleaning
process. Cleaning and sanitizing must be performed on
adjacent surface areas not contacted by the water
distribution system. Refer to Removal of Parts for
Cleaning/Sanitizing (Page 4-7)- Disassemble, clean and
sanitize the ice machine a minimum of once every six
months.
