Ice maker interior or ice bin has visible mold, slime, or algae growth.

Safety first: Unplug the unit and wear gloves when cleaning heavy contamination.

• Step 1 – Discard all ice: Empty and discard all ice from the bin.
• Step 2 – Deep clean interior: Scrub the bin, reservoir, and accessible surfaces with warm water and mild detergent, then rinse.
• Step 3 – Sanitize: Use a food-safe sanitizer or Teendow-recommended cleaner to sanitize the water path and bin.
• Step 4 – Improve maintenance: Establish a regular cleaning schedule (e.g., monthly) to prevent recurrence.
