TL;DR: Check the model. GE's Opal accessory guidance requires hand-washing. Hamilton Beach 86151/86152 allow their basket and scoop on the top rack, without SANITIZE, during routine care.
GE Opal: hand-wash the bin and scoop
GE's accessory-care instructions direct owners to wipe the bin and scoop with a soft cloth moistened with soapy water. Skip solvents and chemical cleaners. Rinse the bin thoroughly, then dry both parts with a soft cloth. Unplug for care; neither part goes in the dishwasher.
Hamilton Beach 86151/86152: top rack, no SANITIZE
For routine care, manual 840376800 allows the storage basket and scoop on the top rack. Turn off SANITIZE; its temperatures can damage the parts. The alternative is warm, soapy hand-washing, rinsing and drying. First-use directions specify hand-washing. Before care, stop production, discard ice, unplug and let the unit reach room temperature.
Keep part washing separate from the cleaning cycle
Washing a removable basket leaves the circulating water path to clean. Our standalone ice-maker cleaner and rinse guide covers that separate job.
GOHALL ice machine cleaner tablets are for compatible dedicated machines whose manufacturers permit the cleaner and method. These two accessory-care examples do not establish that approval. Refrigerator and freezer ice makers are excluded. Complete every machine-required rinse and discard ice made during cleaning.
A question before loading the dishwasher
Can I put a GOHALL tablet in with the basket?
No. The current directions describe a compatible standalone machine's cleaning cycle. They do not authorize using the tablet as dishwasher detergent or a soak for removed parts.
