PLEASE READ all instructions completely before attempting to install or operate the unit.

All ice makers require a connection to both a water supply and an electrical power source. Improper hook-up can result in substantial property damage! Proper installation, in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications and all local codes, is the sole responsibility of the consumer. The manufacturer is not responsible for any installation expenses or damages incurred due to improper installation. If you are unsure of your ability to safely make electric power, water supply, and water drain connections to the unit, consult licensed and insured professionals to perform all electrical and plumbing work.

Once you have your unit installed, we suggest you keep this manual in a safe place for future reference. Should any problems occur, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual. This information will help you quickly identify a problem and get it remedied. In the event you require assistance, please contact the dealer where you purchased your unit.

PLEASE READ all instructions completely before attempting to install or operate the unit. All ice makers require a connection to the water supply and improper hook-up can result in substantial property damage! All water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm.

Plumbing installation must observe all state and local codes. All water and drain connections MUST BE made by a licensed/qualified plumbing contractor. Failure to follow recommendations and instructions may result in damage and/or harm.

Model E15IM60E can be installed using a gravity drain or can use a factory installed or equivalent drain pump.

Follow these guidelines when installing drain lines to prevent water from flowing back into the ice maker storage bin and/or potentially flowing onto the floor causing water damage:

Gravity Drain

• Drain lines must have a 5/8 inch inside diameter.

• Drain lines must have a 1 inch drop per 48 inches of run (1/4 inch per foot) and must not create traps.

• The floor drain must be large enough to accommodate drainage from all drains.

• Insulate the bin drain line to prevent condensation.

Before installing an icemaker with a factory installed pump, it is extremely important to check and test all hose connections at the drain pump. There is a possibility that hose connections may have loosened during shipment.

WARNINGWARNING

WARNING

WARNINGWARNING

To prevent accidental electrocution, make certain that the floor surfaces surrounding the unit are dry whenever power is removed from, or applied to the unit.

Drain Installation

1 Make certain the unit is not plugged into an electrical

outlet.

2 Carefully push the power cord grommet through the hole

in the back panel. See Figure 2.

3 Remove 12 screws and back panel. 4 Check that the clamps and hose connections are tight at

the following areas illustrated in Figure 3:

• Discharge tube (A)

• Drain tube (B)

• Vent tube (C)

5 Place a suitable container beneath the pump’s discharge

tube. (Container must be able to hold a minimum of one gallon of water.)

WARNINGWARNING

WARNING

WARNINGWARNING

Back panel serves as a guard. DO NOT put your hands inside the ice maker cabinet or attempt to touch any components except the discharge tube during testing. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious personal injury or death.

6 Plug the ice maker power cord into a properly grounded, polarized electrical

outlet.

7 Verify pump operation by pouring one gallon of water into the ice storage bin

of the ice maker. The pump should energize and pump the water into the container.

8 At this time, verify that all tube and clamp connections are tight and leak free. 9 Unplug unit power cord from electrical outlet. 10 Reinstall back panel. 11 Continue to the next step in the installation process, Site Preparation.

Drain Pump Connection

CONNECTING A DRAIN PUMP

If a gravity drain connection is not available, and you have not purchased the E15IM60E with factory installed pump, we strongly recommend the use of the Electrolux EIMP60 drain pump. The Electrolux EIMP60 drain pump is available through your Dealer, or direct from Electrolux with complete installation instructions. If a pump other than the Electrolux EIMP60 drain pump is to be used, it must meet the following specifications:

• It must be UL listed and have a UL listed, 120 VAC, 3-wire grounded power

cord.

• It must have overall maximum outside dimensions of 8-3/4" wide x 5-3/4"

deep x 7-3/4" high.

• It must have a minimum flow rate of 15 gallons per hour at 10 feet of lift.

• It must have a sealed sump which does not allow water leakage in the case

of a power outage, restricted drain or pump failure.

• It must have a check valve in the discharge line to prevent waste water return

to the pump.

• It must have an overflow protection control which will shut off power to the ice

maker in the event of a pump failure.

• It must have an operating temperature range of 50°F to 110°F (10°C to 43°C).

In the event of a power outage, restricted drain or pump failure, the failure to use the Electrolux EIMP60 drain pump or a pump with the above listed specifications, could result in substantial water leakage and pooling with severe and costly water damage and related consequential damages and harm.

PREPARING THE SITE

Site Preparation

IMPORIMPOR

IMPORIMPOR

It is extremely important that the unit is level. If it is not level, the ice mold will not fill evenly. This can cause a reduction in ice rate, uneven sized cubes or water spilling into the storage area which will cause the ice in the bin to melt pre-maturely. Remember that floors near drains have a tendency to slope towards the drain.

1 Position the unit on a flat, level surface, capable of supporting the entire

weight of the unit. Remember that the unit will be significantly heavier once it is fully loaded.

2 The surrounding air temperature must be at least 50°F (10°C) but must not

exceed 110°F (43°C).

3 The unit must not be located near heat-generating equipment or in direct

sunlight.

ELECTROCUTION HAZARD! Electrical Grounding Required. This appliance is equipped with a three prong

(grounding) polarized plug for your protection against possible shock hazards.

• NEVER remove the round grounding prong from the plug.

• NEVER use a two-prong grounding adapter.

• NEVER use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.

Where a two-prong wall receptacle is encountered or a longer power cord is required, contact a qualified electrician to have it replaced in accordance with applicable electrical codes.

4 The unit must be located to allow clearance for water, drain and electrical

connections in the rear of the ice maker.

5 Connect the unit to a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 60 Hz, 15 A circuit

(normal household current).

6 Avoid connecting the unit to a Ground Fault Interruptor (GFI). GFIs are prone to

nuisance tripping which will cause the unit to shut down. GFIs are generally not used on circuits which power equipment that must run unattended for long periods of time.

7 The unit must be installed according to your local codes and ordinances.
