Cleaning
Integrated Models
To clean integrated panels, use household cleaner per the 
cabinet manufacturer’s 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.

Using abrasive pads such as ScotchBrite™ will
cause the graining in the stainless steel to
become blurred.

surface of the stainless steel and complete
removal of the rust may not be possible.
