CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

HOW TO DRAIN YOUR ICE MAKER

To drain the ice maker, position the drainage port on the bottom of the

unit over a sink, or place a small container or receptacle under the

drainage port. Remove the plug and allow water to drain out

completely.

Change the water in the water reservoir every 24 hours to ensure clean

ice. If the unit will not be used for an extended period of time, drain all

of the water from the reservoir and dry the reservoir and ice basket.

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR ICE MAKER

Clean your ice maker before use. To properly clean your ice maker,

follow these instructions:

1. Unplug the unit from the power supply.

2. Place a small container or receptacle under the drainage port and

clean the interior with diluted detergent, warm water and a soft

cloth. First pour the warm water with diluted detergent into the

internal water reservoir and then into the space below the top

cover.

3. Use this water and detergent solution to clean the rest of the ice

maker’s interior and drain out the water by unplugging the drain

cap located on the bottom of the unit. Dry the interior with a soft

cloth. Use warm water and diluted detergent to clean the exterior

of the ice maker. Dry the exterior with a soft cloth.

To remove the build-up of calcium or other impurities, add a capful of

vinegar or lemon juice to the water in the reservoir and run for two or

three ice-making cycles. Drain and refill the reservoir with clean, warm

water. Run two more cycles to rinse the vinegar or lemon-juice.
