Scotsman Ice machine yellow bin light on

The yellow bin light on a Scotsman ice machine indicates that the ice storage bin needs to be cleaned. This is because the ice machine’s water supply contains minerals that can build up over time and create a layer of scale on the ice storage bin. This scale can make the ice taste bad and can also lead to the ice machine not working properly.

To clean the ice storage bin, you will need to:

1. Unplug the ice machine.
2. Remove the ice storage bin.
3. Wash the ice storage bin with a mild soap and water solution.
4. Rinse the ice storage bin with clean water.
5. Dry the ice storage bin with a clean towel.
6. Reinstall the ice storage bin.
7. Plug in the ice machine.

Once you have cleaned the ice storage bin, the yellow bin light should turn off. If the light does not turn off, you may need to contact a qualified technician to troubleshoot the problem.

Here are some additional tips for cleaning your Scotsman ice machine:

• Clean the ice machine every six months or more often if necessary.
• Use a mild soap and water solution to clean the ice machine.
• Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners to clean the ice machine.
• Rinse the ice machine thoroughly after cleaning.
• Dry the ice machine completely before using it again.

By following these tips, you can help to keep your Scotsman ice machine working properly and producing fresh, clean ice for years to come.
