Interior De-scaling and Sanitizing
GENERAL
De-scale and sanitize the ice machine every six months for
efficient operation. If the ice machine requires more frequent
de-scaling and sanitizing, consult a qualified service company
to test the water quality and recommend appropriate water
treatment.
The ice machine must be taken apart for de-scaling and
sanitizing.
Sanitizing for Exterior, Remedial, and Detailed procedures
can be performed independently and more frequently than
de-scaling when needed.

If you do not understand the procedures or the safety
precautions that must be followed, call your local
Manitowoc service representative to perform the
maintenance procedures for you.

sanitizers, cleaners or solutions may result in bodily
harm and/or cause damage to the ice machine that
is not covered under the warranty. Do not use metal
safe de-scaler or sanitizer quantities that exceed the
amounts listed in this manual. Do not use these solutions
in a manner inconsistent with their labeling. Read and
