Ice is produced until the machine senses the bin is full.
As ice slowly melts in the bin, the level of ice drops and
ice production resumes. This ensures a constant supply
of fresh ice is always available.
The factory default ice setting is 0, which produces

Cleaning
Integrated Models
To clean integrated panels, use household cleaner per the
cabinet manufacturers recommendations.
INTERIOR CLEANING
Disconnect power to the unit.
Clean the interior and all removed components using a mild
nonabrasive detergent and warm solution applied with a
soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth.
Rinse the interior using a soft sponge and clean water.
Do not use any solvent-based or abrasive
cleaners. These types of cleaners may transfer taste
and/or odor to the interior products and damage or discolor
the interior.
NUGGET ICE MACHINE CLEANING CYCLE
This ice machine has an automatic clean alert function.
The control will indicate
CL in the display, approximately
every six months with normal use, reminding you to
clean your unit. When
CL is displayed, ice production will
continue. Depending on water conditions, more frequent
cleaning may be necessary: see chart below. Cleaning
removes lime scale, other mineral deposits, and sanitizes
the machine. Poor ice quality and reduced ice output are
signs that cleaning is necessary.
Clean surfaces with a mild detergent and warm water
solution. Do not use solvent-based or abrasive cleaners.
Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe with a
soft, clean towel to prevent water spotting.
Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass
cleaner.
EXTERIOR CLEANING
Vinyl Clad (Black or White) Models
Stainless Models
Stainless door panels, handles and frames can discolor
when exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, saltwater or
cleaners with bleach.
Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a
good quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner and polish
monthly. For best results use Claire
®
Stainless Steel
Polish and Cleaner. Comparable products are acceptable.
Frequent cleaning will remove surface contamination that
could lead to rust. Some installations may require cleaning
weekly.
Do not clean with steel wool pads.
Do not use stainless steel cleaners or polishes on
any glass surfaces.
Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass cleaner.
Do not use cleaners not specically intended for
stainless steel on stainless steel surfaces (this
includes glass, tile, and counter cleaners).
If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it
quickly with Bon-Ami
®
or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser
®
and
a nonabrasive cloth. Always clean with the grain. Always
nish with Claire
®
Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or
comparable product to prevent further problems.
Using abrasive pads such as ScotchBrite™ will
cause the graining in the stainless steel to
become blurred.
Rust not cleaned up promptly can penetrate the
surface of the stainless steel and complete
removal of the rust may not be possible.

Under normal conditions cleaning should be done
when the display shows CL. You may initiate
a cleaning cycle at any time by pressing and
holding the clean button for 10 seconds.
0 1 will
appear in the display indicating the start of the
cleaning process.
You may override
CL in the display without cleaning by
pressing and holding the up, down, & light button for 10
seconds.
ICE will scroll in the display and the cleaning
reminder (
CL
) will be reset for another approximate six
month cycle. Failure to clean may reduce the quality
and quantity of ice produced. Once the clean cycle
begins, it can be canceled by pressing three times.
Press once more to start making ice. The clean cycle
will automatically cancel if user fails to activate control at

well as reduce chlorine and other o tastes
and odors. U-Line recommends replacing the
lter (Part No. ULANUGGETFILTER) when you
