Clear Ice Maker Cleaning Cycle  
Interval - Every 3 Months  
To maintain operational efficiency, clean the unit every three  
months (depending on water conditions, more or less frequent  
cleaning may be necessary). If the ice maker requires more  
frequent cleaning, consult a qualified plumber to test the water  
quality and recommend appropriate treatment.  
Evaporator  
IMPORTANT  
Wear rubber gloves and safety goggles and/or face shield  
when handling Ice Machine Cleaner.  
Standpipe  
Water trough  
CAUTION  
5. Re-install the standpipe into the water trough.  
6. Clean the Interior Bin as follows:  
Use only U-Line Ice Machine Cleaner (Part No. 41978,  
available from your dealer or direct from your local parts  
distributor. To locate a parts distributor near you, visit  
use this solution in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.  
Use of any other cleaner can ruin the finish of the  
evaporator and will void the warranty. Read and  
Dilute one packet of CLR cleaner into two quarts of water.  
Using a sponge or cloth, clean interior of ice bin, tubing and  
door. This cleaner will remove all mineral deposits and  
other contaminants from the surfaces.  
understand all labels printed on the package before use.  
Using a bottle brush, clean out the trough drain tube and  
pump tubing where needed.  
U-Line Ice Machine Cleaner is used to remove lime scale and other  
mineral deposits. Refer to the following steps to initiate the self-  
cleaning cycle.  
IMPORTANT  
• Model CLRCO2175 refrigerator will not operate during  
the ice maker cleaning cycle. Remove all fresh food to  
prevent spoilage.  
Brush  
Model CLRCO2175 ice production after the first  
harvest may take longer after the cleaning cycle since  
restoring the refrigerator temperature will take  
precedence over ice production. Once the refrigerator  
reaches its set-point temperature, ice making will  
resume.  
7. Place the unit into CLEAN mode by pressing and holding the  
POWER button for 10 seconds while pressing the LIGHT  
button three times.  
CAUTION  
Never use anything to force ice from the evaporator.  
Damage may result.  
8. When water begins flowing over the evaporator (approximately  
3 minutes), pour 1 packet of CLR cleaner into the water trough.  
The cleaning process will last approximately 45 minutes.  
1. Turn the ice maker  
Evaporator cover  
off (allowing any ice  
to melt off of the  
evaporator) as  
follows:  
9. Following the cleaning process, sanitize the ice bin with a dilute  
bleach solution. (1 Tablespoon bleach per gallon of water).  
Dilute 1 tablespoon bleach in 1 gallon of warm water. Apply this  
solution to the entire inside of the storage area. Then rinse  
thoroughly with water.  
2. Remove all ice from  
the storage bin.  
3. Remove evaporator  
cover (Figure 21).

U-Line Ice Maker  
 
The unit will resume operation approximately 15 minutes after the  
automated cleaning process is completed. The water fill valve will  
energize, fill the water reservoir, and shut-off after three minutes.  
The compressor begins to operate and water flows over the  
evaporator assembly (ice cube tray). Initially, the water flow may  
not be uniform, causing uneven sized cubes or water to spill into  
the ice storage bin. This is a normal situation that will correct itself  
within the first 24 hours of operation.  
Ice cubes in any given batch will vary, so it is necessary to choose  
cubes from the sample area for comparison when making  
adjustments. If further adjustments are desired, repeat Steps 1  
through 4.  
The ice cube thickness is factory set for best overall performance.  
The factory setting is designed to maintain an ice bridge of  
approximately 1/16" to 1/8" under normal conditions resulting in a  
dimple of approximately 1/4" to 1/2" in depth. A fuller cube with  
less of a dimple results in a thicker ice bridge. As the ice bridge  
becomes thicker, the tendency for the cubes to stay together as a  
slab increases. A bridge thicker than 1/8" may cause cubes to  
overfill the ice bucket.  
IMPORTANT  
• Discard all ice produced in the first harvest.  
Should power to the unit be interrupted during the  
self-clean cycle, it will be necessary to repeat the  
complete cleaning cycle after power is restored.

8 Cleaning  
Defrosting  
Automatic Defrost Models  
Exterior Cleaning  
Frost on the rear wall is normal and will melt during each off cycle.  
If there is excessive build-up of 1/4” or more, manually defrost the  
unit.  
Vinyl Clad (Black or White) Models:  
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.  
Ensure the door is closing and sealing properly.  
High ambient temperature and excessive humidity can also  
produce frost.  
Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass cleaner.  
CAUTION  
Stainless Models:  
DO NOT use an ice pick or other sharp instrument to  
help speed up defrosting. These instruments can puncture  
the inner lining or damage the cooling unit. DO NOT use  
any type of heater to defrost. Using a heater to speed up  
defrosting can cause personal injury and damage to the  
inner lining.  
Stainless door panels, handles and frames can discolor when  
exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, saltwater or cleaners  
with bleach.  
Keep your stainless unit looking new by cleaning with a good  
quality all-in-one stainless steel cleaner polish monthly. For best  
results use Claire® Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner, which can  
be purchased from U-Line Corporation (Part Number 173348).  
Comparable products are acceptable. Frequent cleaning will  
remove surface contamination that could lead to rust. Some  
installations may require cleaning weekly.  
Place towels or  
absorbent materials  
over the interior  
drain trough  
Do not clean with steel wool pads.  
Do not use stainless steel cleaners polishes on any glass  
surfaces.  
Clean any glass surfaces with a non-chlorine glass cleaner.  
Do not use cleaners not specifically intended for  
stainless steel on stainless surfaces (this includes glass,  
tile and counter cleaners).  
To defrost:  
If any surface discoloring or rusting appears, clean it quickly  
with Bon-Ami® or Barkeepers Friend Cleanser® and a  
nonabrasive cloth. Always clean towards the grain. Always finish  
with Claire Stainless Steel Polish and Cleaner or comparable  
product to prevent further problems.  
1. Disconnect power to the unit.  
2. For combo models remove all products from the interior.  
3. Remove ice bucket and discard ice.  
4. Place towel or other absorbent materialon bottom of ice bin.  
For combo models also place in bottom of unit.  
Using abrasive pads such as Scotchbrite™ will cause  
the graining in the stainless to become blurred.  
5. Fill the ice bucket half full with warm, not hot water. This will  
help the unit defrost faster.  
Rust not cleaned up promptly can penetrate the surface of the  
stainless steel and complete removal of the rust may not be  
possible.  
6. Place the ice bucket back into the unit on top of the towel or  
other absorbent material.  
Interior Cleaning  
7. Prop the door in an open position (2 in. (5 cm) minimum).  
8. After about 1 hour remove the ice bin and discard water.  
9. Allow the frost to melt naturally.  
Disconnect power to the unit.  
Clean the interior and all removed components using a mild  
nonabrasive detergent and warm water solution applied with a  
soft sponge or non-abrasive cloth.  
10. After the frost melts completely clean the interior and all  
removed components. (See INTERIOR CLEANING)  
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 to the interior  
products and damage or discolor the interior.  
IMPORTANT  
DO NOT clean ice bucket using a dishwasher. The bucket  
is not dishwasher safe and will be damaged.  
11. When the interior is dry, reconnect power and turn unit on.  
NOTE: To safeguard against contaminates in ice, discard first  
three batches of ice after defrosting.
