2. WATER DISPENSING (ONLY DHD 200-30 W MODELS)
When the user presses the water dispensing button, an electro valve allows it to ow, at the correct supply
pressure and temperature.
The water or ice lost during dispensing operations through the front grid, as well as the melt water from the
ice bin, are collected by the drain bin, where they are conducted out of the machine through the drain pipe.
CAUTION: Never try to reuse the ice or water contained in the drain bin. To access it for cleaning or
maintenance purposes, see chapter 7.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING PROCEDURES
1. CLEANING
It is the user’s responsibility to keep the ice machine and ice storage bin in a sanitary condition.
For the disassembly and cleaning of the ice maker, refer to its specic manual.
Sanitize the ice dispenser as frequently as local health codes require, and every time the ice machine is
cleaned and sanitized
To empty the ice that may remain in the bin, you can either do it manually or by pressing the ice dispensing
button and waiting until all the ice falls through the ice chute. If you choose the second option, note that the
gear motor has been designed for intermittent use, so a long, continuous use may provoke its overheating,
resulting in work stoppage. Should this happen, please let it cool for some time, after which it will work
again normally.
For the cleaning of the lime, prepare a solution of an appropriate product for the cleaning of ice machines.
Do not use hydrochloric acid. We recommend the use of any NSF approved scale removal product prepared
according to the manufacturer’s instructions
For sanitization, mix a solution of sanitizer using sodium hypochlorite food equipment sanitizer to form a
solution with 100 - 200 ppm free chlorine yield. Below is an example to calculate the proper quantity of
sanitizer to add to the water, for household bleach 12.5%.
Rinse thoroughly with water after each operation.
CAUTION: Do not mix ice machine cleaner and sanitizer solutions together.
WARNING: Wear rubber gloves and safety goggles when handling ice machine cleaner or sanitizer.
WARNING: Unit must always be disconnected during maintenance/cleaning procedures. The machine
may start rotating at any moment without user’s action, creating a risk.
Bleach to add = = 1.2 gr/L *0.133 = 0.16 oz/gal
