To your point I don't pink the ice maker or anything else. I blow the water out with a compressor. The ice maker I spray down with water and vacuum out.I have a U-line ice maker and the instructions say to disconnect the water line, which I do down below in the E/R where there is a valve that can be closed to shut off the water to the unit. Then allow the unit to operate for several ice making cycles which purges the unit of water. That’s it. Has worked for me.
When I purchased the boat, the ice maker mold was in rough shape. According to a friend that is in the appliance business, and an avid boater, it’s the pink A/F that screws up the ice mold. He got me a new ice making unit for the ice maker which still looks new.
So the first 2 posts here are in direct conflict with each other so looks like you need more responses and/or need to look in your owners manual. Good luck.
Winterize an ice maker........ it just sounds funny!
The water line to the ice maker will freeze if you turn it off and do nothing more. You need to insure that line has no water in it or has pink filling it or it will burst.Not good input. This is an ice maker, it's not supposed to freeze. It makes ice. And the antifreeze is bad for the ice maker. Cut off the water supply let the ice maker run until nothing comes out in your done. No antifreeze

We use our fresh water tank all summer for drinking and ice... Bleach it, sterilize it and use it... You will be fine
