Portable ice maker cleaning solution

For those of you who have portable ice makers have you ever had to try and clean it if so what methods did you use.

I have a like new ice maker that a friend used twice and I don't think it needs cleaned but do they need periodic maintenance?

Wash the inside soap and water, rinse add vinegar solution 1part water 10 parts vinegar let run a few loads drain rinse and your good to go but dump the first 2 or 3 runs so you don't have vinegar ice.
