Maintenance Tips
-
Clean after each use: Wipe all surfaces, including the ice bin and drainer area, with warm water and mild, food-safe detergent using a soft cloth or sponge.
-
Rinse and dry completely: Remove all soap residues and dry thoroughly to prevent water buildup and mineral deposits.
-
Sanitize interior regularly: Especially parts that contact ice, water or drinks — use food-safe sanitizer, then rinse and dry.
-
Avoid abrasive materials and harsh chemicals: Do not use steel wool, wire brushes, scouring pads, bleach, or strong acid/alkaline cleaners — these can scratch or corrode stainless surfaces.
-
Drain and clean removable parts: After handling ice or beverages, empty and clean the bin, drain plug, and any drip trays thoroughly.
-
Inspect seals, joints and moving parts: Periodically check welds, hinges, drain assembly, and any fittings for wear or corrosion; clean or repair as needed.
-
Polish occasionally (optional): Use a stainless‑steel–safe polish to maintain appearance and minimize fingerprints or water marks.
