at an irregular rate; sometimes there will be little ice
falling while other times a group of nuggets will fall.
IMPORTANT: Never keep anything in the ice storage
bin that is not ice. Objects like wine or beer bottles are
not only unsanitary, but the labels can slip off and plug
up the drain.
IMPORTANT: Never allow the machine to operate
without regular cleaning. The machine will last longer
if it is kept clean. Regular cleaning should happen
twice per year. Some water conditions will dictate
even more frequent cleaning of the ice making
section, and some carpets or pets will dictate more
frequent cleaning of the condenser.
