How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the ProfiCook ice maker before descaling.

  • Empty and rinse: Remove all ice and drain the reservoir.
  • Prepare descaling solution: Mix a food-safe descaler or white vinegar with water according to product instructions.
  • Soak and wipe: Fill the reservoir with the solution and use a soft cloth or sponge to gently wipe the evaporator fingers and tank surfaces. Do not use abrasive pads.
  • Run a cleaning cycle: If your model supports it, run a cleaning or test cycle, then discard the water.
  • Rinse thoroughly: Flush the system with at least two full tanks of clean water before making ice again.
