2. Cleaning and Sanitizing Instructions
IMPORTANT
Ensure all components, fasteners and thumbscrews are securely in place
after any maintenance or cleaning is done to the equipment.
WARNING
1. HOSHIZAKI recommends cleaning this unit at least once a year. More
frequent cleaning, however, may be required in some existing water
conditions.
2. To prevent injury to individuals and damage to the icemaker, do not use
ammonia type cleaners.
3. Always wear liquid-proof gloves to prevent the cleaning and sanitizing
solutions from coming into contact with skin.
[a] Cleaning Solution
Dilute 7 fl. oz. (207 ml) of recommended cleaner Hoshizaki “Scale Away" or “LIME-A-
WAY" (Economics Laboratory, Inc.) with 1.3 gallons (4.9 l) of warm water.
IMPORTANT
For safety and maximum effectiveness, use the solution immediately after
dilution.
[b] Cleaning Procedure
The cleaning process will remove lime deposits from the water system.
1) Remove the front panel.
2) Remove all ice from the evaporator and the storage bin.
Note: To remove cubes on the evaporator, move the control switch to the “OFF"
position and move it back to the “ICE" position after 3 minutes. The defrost
cycle starts and the cubes will be removed from the evaporator.
