Maintenance Tips

• Regular Cleaning: Clean and sanitize the ice-making system approximately every six months to prevent scale buildup and ensure optimal performance.

• Condenser Maintenance: Periodically clean the condenser by removing the front panel and vacuuming the surface of the condenser fins. Brush off any loose dirt, and if grease is embedded, use coil cleaner to wash it out.

• Optical Sensor Care: Clean the optical sensors located at the top of the ice chute to prevent false bin full indications. Remove the chute cover from the back of the bin, extract the sensors by removing the white c-clip, clean the sensor lenses with a cotton swab dipped in a solution of 4 ounces of Clear 1 Ice Machine Scale Remover mixed with 1.5 quarts of warm water (900°F/320°C to 1100°F/430°C), rinse with clean water, and reinstall.

• Water Quality Management: Use a water filtration system to minimize mineral deposits, enhance ice quality, and reduce scale buildup.

• Monitor Ice Production: Regularly check for unusual noises, reduced ice production, or changes in ice quality, and address issues promptly to ensure consistent operation.

• Professional Servicing: Schedule annual professional maintenance to ensure all components function correctly and to extend the machine's lifespan.
