2020 Columbus Compass 297RKC De-winterize

Have some questions. Will be using my Columbus Compass 297RKC for the first time this weekend. There are a few drops of antifreeze in my residential LG refrigerator ice maker. How do I get the antifreeze out of the ice maker? Don’t want to run it through the filter and have to replace it.
There is antifreeze in the water filter housing by my water hookup. Do I dump the antifreeze out and run water through it until it clears up and then install the filter?
Also, I could bypass the hot water heater on my travel trailer so I didn’t fill up the tank with antifreeze. How do I flush the system without running antifreeze through my hot water tank? Have no clue where the bypass is located on this 5th wheel.
Any help would be appreciated. Asked the dealership several times but they say to download the Forest River App and everything is in there.
