2. Dispenser or Storage Bin Unit and Scoop
Wash your hands before removing ice. Use the plastic scoop provided (accessory).
The dispenser or storage bin is for ice use only. Do not store anything else in the bin.
Keep the scoop clean. Clean it by using a neutral cleaner and rinse thoroughly.
Clean the bin liner by using a neutral cleaner. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
3. Condenser Check the condenser once a year, and clean the coil if required by using a brush or vacuum cleaner. More frequent cleaning may be required depending on the location of the condensing unit.

C. Preparing the Icemaker for Long Storage

CAUTION
When the icemaker is not used for two or three days under normal conditions, it is sufficient to only move the control switch to the "OFF" position. When storing the icemaker for extended time or in sub-freezing temperatures, turn the water off and drain out all water from the water lines and remove the ice from the dispenser or storage bin. The dispenser or storage bin should be cleaned and dried. Drain the icemaker water hoses using air or carbon dioxide to prevent damage at sub-freezing temperatures.
To drain all water from the icemaker, follow the steps below. See Fig. 11.
1) Remove the front panel.
2) Move the control switch to the "OFF" position. Confirm that the service switch is in the "OFF" position.
3) Remove the front insulation, front frame, right side panel, and control box cover.
4) Disconnect the thermistor from the K3 connector on the control board, and unplug the water pump connector at the water pump.
5) Wait 3 minutes, then move the control switch to the "ICE" position. Confirm that the bin control switch is closed and calling for ice. The green BC CLOSED LED on the control board should be on.
6) Once LED 1 and 2 on the control board energize (the order of the LEDs from the outer edge of the control board is 1,4,3,2), close the potable water supply line shut-off valve and open the potable water supply line drain valve. Allow the line to drain by gravity.
7) Disconnect the harvest water valve hose in the evaporator section and blow out the water line to the harvest water valve using compressed air or carbon dioxide. This will clear water from the harvest water valve.
8) Move the control switch to the "OFF" position.
9) Move the service switch to the "WASH" position and the control switch to the "SERVICE" position.
10) Using the same hose as with the harvest water valve, blow out the wash valve using compressed air or carbon dioxide.
11) Move the service switch to the "OFF" position and the control switch to the "OFF" position.
12) Remove the 4 hoses connected to the water tank. Allow the tank and hoses to completely drain.
13) Move the control switch to the "ICE" position.
14) Using the fill water valve hose, blow the water line out using compressed air or carbon dioxide. This will clear water from the fill water valve.
15) Move the control switch to the "OFF" position.

16) Disconnect the float switch vent hose from the drain hose tee. Move the service switch to the "DRAIN" position and the control switch to the "SERVICE" position.
17) From the tee on the drain hose, blow the drain water valve out using compressed air or carbon dioxide.
18) Move the service switch to the "OFF" position and the control switch to the "OFF" position.
19) Reconnect the thermistor to the K3 connector on the control board. Reconnect the water pump connector.
20) Close the potable water supply line drain valve.
21) Remove all ice from the dispenser or storage bin and clean the bin.
22) Turn off the power supply.
