Note: A plumbing permit and services of a licensed 

plumber may be required in some areas.

• Only potable water should be used for this icemaker.

• Water supply pressure should be minimum 0.7 bar 

and maximum 8 bar. If the pressure exceeds 8 bar, 
use a pressure reducing valve. Do NOT throttle back 
the supply tap.

• The icemaker drain is gravity flow, so ensure that the 

drainpipe has an adequate pitch or fall.

• Water should drain into an open trap.

1. This icemaker is designed to produce edible 

ice. To keep the icemaker hygienic:

• Wash your hands before removing ice.

• Use the plastic scoop provided (accessory).

• The storage bin is for ice use only. Do not 

store anything else in the bin.

• Clean the storage bin before use (see "III. 

1. Cleaning").

• Keep the scoop clean. Clean it by using a 

neutral cleaner and rinsing thoroughly.

• Close the door after removing ice to 

prevent entrance of dirt, dust or insects 
into the storage bin.

2. The use of any electrical equipment involves 

the observance of some fundamental rules. 
In particular: 

• Instances of high humidity and moisture 

increase the risk of electrical short circuits 
and potential electrical shocks. If in doubt, 
disconnect the icemaker.

• Do not use the icemaker when you have 

bare feet.

• Do not pull the power cord in order to 

disconnect the icemaker from the feed 
network.

• This appliance is not suitable for 

unsupervised use by young children or 
aged or infirm persons.

3. All parts are factory-adjusted. Improper 

adjustments may result in failure.

4. If the unit is turned off, wait for at least 3 

minutes before restarting the icemaker to 
prevent damage to the compressor.

5. Do not operate the unit in the "WASH" 

position without water in the water tank. This 
will cause damage to the water pump seal. 

The installer will normally commission the icemaker 
to start the automatic icemaking process. To ensure 
continuous operation, make sure that:

• The water supply tap is on, and

• The power supply is on.

1) Disconnect the power supply.

2) Close the water supply tap, and remove the Inlet 

hose.

3) Remove all ice from the storage bin.

4) Ask for draining of the icemaker by professional 

qualified personnel.

1. Before carrying out any cleaning or 

maintenance operations, turn off the power 
supply.

2. Ask a trained service person to clean and 

sanitize the icemaker water system at least 
twice a year and to check and clean the 
condenser at least once a year.

3. This appliance must not be cleaned by use of 

a water jet.

Wipe the exterior at least once per week with a clean, 
soft cloth. Use a damp cloth containing a neutral 
cleaner to wipe off grease or dirt.

1) Either mix 3 litres of water with 11 ml of 5.25% 

sodium hypochlorite solution in a suitable 
container, or the recommended Hoshizaki sanitiser 
as directed.

2) Soak the scoop in the solution for more than 3 

minutes. Rinse thoroughly, and shake to remove 
surplus liquid.

Note: Using a cloth to dry may re-contaminate.

1) Open the storage bin door, and remove all ice.

Note: Hoshizaki recommends various types of 

storage bin for the icemaker which vary in 
size and design. The following instructions 
are therefore for general guidance only.

neutral non-abrasive cleaner. Rinse thoroughly 
with a clean cloth and fresh water.
