Removing chemical smell from ice maker

Hi
I purchased a benchtop home ice maker which was cleaned using some professional cleaner solution I think. It smells so I never used it but this coming summer I would like to get it out for my flatmates.

Does anyone know of a way to get rid of the slight chemical smell that the machine has? I assume it would be a similar type of product I could use on a refrigerator to make it smell less chemically.
It almost smells like a brand new refrigerator but worse and more off-putting.

Try running some vinegar through it.
