CARE AND CLEANING AND ENERGY SAVING TIPS
OBTAINING SERVICE
Front Grille
Be sure that nothing obstructs the required air ow openings
in front of the cabinet. At least once or twice a year, brush or
vacuum lint and dirt from the front grille area (see page 4).
SHOCK HAZARD: Disconnect electrical power from the
appliance before cleaning with soap and water.
Cabinet
The painted cabinet can be washed with either a mild soap
and water and thoroughly rinsed with clear water. NEVER
use abrasive scouring cleaners.
Cleaning
Routine cleaning of the stainless steel surfaces will serve
to greatly extend the life of your product by removing
contaminants. This is especially important in coastal areas
which can expose the stainless to sever contaminants such
as halide salts (sodium chloride).
It is strongly recommended to periodically inspect and
thoroughly clean crevices, weld points, under gaskets,
rivets, bolt heads, and any locations where small amounts
of liquid could collect, become stagnant, and concentrate
contaminants. Additionally, any mounting hardware that is
showing signs of corrosion should be replaced.
Interior
Wash interior compartment with mild soap and water. Do
NOT use an abrasive cleaner, solvent, polish cleaner,
undiluted detergent or chlorine based cleaners.
Care of Appliance
1. Avoid leaning on the door, you may bend the door
hinges or tip the appliance.
2. Exercise caution when sweeping, vacuuming or
mopping near the front of the appliance. Damage to the
grille can occur.
3. Periodically clean the interior of the appliance as
needed.
4. Periodically check and/or clean the front grille as
needed.
In the Event of a Power Failure
If a power failure occurs, try to correct it as soon as
possible. Minimize the number of door openings while the
power is o󰀨 so as not to adversely a󰀨ect the appliance's
temperature.
Light assembly replacement
All models use LED lamps to illuminate the interior of the
appliance. This component is very reliable, but should one
fail, contact a qualied service technician for replacement
of the LED.

Energy Saving Tips
The following suggestions will minimize the
cost of operating your ice machine appliance.
1. Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance,
(stove, dishwasher, etc.). heating air duct, or other heat
sources.
2. Install product out of direct sunlight.
3. Assure the front grille vents at front of the ice machine
beneath the door are not obstructed and kept clean to
allow ventilation for the refrigeration system to expel
heat.
4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not
shared with other appliances).
5. Minimize door openings and duration of door openings.
6. Set the control to the “o󰀨” position if accessing the
interior to spot clean or remove large quantities of ice
requires the door to be open for an extended period of
time.
7. Use ECO mode if maximum ice production quantities
are not required.
8. Use the delay start function if the ice machine will not
be used for long periods of time.
