SANITIZING PROCEDURE
Use sanitizer to remove algae or slime. Do not use it to
remove lime scale or other mineral deposits. To initiate a
sanitizing cycle using Manitowoc’s Patented Cleaning/
Sanitizing Technology use the following procedure.
Step 1 Set the toggle switch to the OFF position after
ice falls from the evaporator at the end of a Harvest
cycle. Or, set the switch to the OFF position and allow
the ice to melt off the evaporator.
Step 2 To start a sanitizing cycle, place the toggle
switch in the CLEAN position. The water will flow
through the water dump valve and down the drain. The
Clean light will turn on to indicate the ice machine is in
the Sanitizing mode.
Step 3 Wait about one minute or until water starts to
flow over the evaporator.
Step 4 Add the proper amount of Manitowoc Ice
Machine Sanitizer to the water trough.
Step 5 The ice machine will automatically time out a
ten minute sanitizing cycle, followed by six rinse cycles,
and stop. The Clean light will turn off to indicate the
sanitizing mode is completed. This entire cycle lasts
approximately 25 minutes.
NOTE: Periodic cleaning must be performed on adjacent
surface areas not contacted by the water distribution
system. If the bin requires sanitizing, remove all the ice
and sanitize it with a solution of 1-ounce (30 ml) of
sanitizer with up to 4 gallons (15 L) of water.
Step 6 When the sanitizing process stops, move the
toggle switch to ICE position to start ice making again.
Step 7
A. The ice machine may be set to start and finish a
sanitizing procedure then automatically start ice
making again.
B. You must wait about one minute into the
sanitizing cycle (until water starts to flow over
the evaporator) then move the switch from
CLEAN to ICE position.
C. When the sanitizing cycle is completed, the
clean light will turn off and an ice making
sequence will start automatically.
PROCEDURE TO CANCEL A CLEANING OR
SANITIZING CYCLE AFTER IT HAS STARTED
If less than 45 seconds into cycle:
Move the toggle switch to the OFF position. The cycle is
canceled.
If more than 45 seconds into cycle:
Step 1 Move toggle switch to OFF position.
Step 2 Move toggle switch to ICE position.
Step 3 Move toggle switch to OFF position.
The cycle is canceled.
