A:Answer Clean the ice maker at least once a week or every three days if your water quality is poor. To run the self-cleaning cycle, fill the reservoir to the MAX water line with clean water, then press the ON/OFF button for more than five seconds. The self-cleaning cycle starts. When the self-cleaning cycle is done (about 30 minutes), unplug the drain plug on the front bottom to drain the water. Clean the exterior and interior with diluted detergent, warm water, and a soft cloth. Rinse with clean water.
