3 Safety Precautions

IMPORTANT

PLEASE READ all instructions completely before attempting to install, operate, or service your unit.

Proper installation procedures must be followed if this unit is being initially installed, or is moved to a new location after being in service. An INSTALLATION GUIDE for your unit, providing complete installation information is available from U-Line Corporation directly, and must be consulted before any installation is begun. U-Line contact information appears on the rear cover of this guide.

This unit requires connection to a grounded (three-prong), polarized receptacle that has been placed by a qualified electrician in accordance with applicable electrical codes.

Safety Alert Definitions

Safety items throughout this guide are labeled with a Danger, Warning or Caution based on the risk type:

DANGER

Danger means that failure to follow this safety statement will result in severe personal injury or death.

WARNING

Warning means that failure to follow this safety statement could result in serious personal injury or death.

CAUTION

Caution means that failure to follow this safety statement may result in minor or moderate personal injury, property or equipment damage.

General Precautions

Use this appliance for its intended purpose only and follow these general precautions along with those listed throughout this guide:

DANGER

RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT. Before you throw away your old refrigerator or freezer, take off the doors and leave shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

WARNING

SHOCK HAZARD - Electrical Grounding Required.

Never attempt to repair or perform maintenance on the unit until the electricity has been disconnected.

Never remove the round grounding prong from the plug and never use a two-prong grounding adapter.

Altering, cutting of power cord, removal of power cord, removal of power plug, or direct wiring can cause serious injury, fire and/or loss of property and/or life, and will void the warranty.

Never use an extension cord to connect power to the unit.

Always keep your working area dry.

CAUTION

Use care when moving and handling the unit. Use gloves to prevent personal injury from sharp edges.

If your model requires defrosting, DO NOT use any type of heater to defrost. Using a heater to speed up defrosting can cause personal injury and damage to the inner lining.

IMPORTANT

Do not lift unit by door handle.

Never install or operate the unit behind closed doors. Be sure front grille is free of obstruction. Obstructing free air flow can cause the unit to malfunction and may void the warranty.

Failure to clean the condenser every three months can cause the unit to malfunction. This could void the warranty.

Allow unit temperature to stabilize for 24 hours before use.

If your model requires defrosting, never use an ice pick or other sharp instrument to help speed up defrosting. These instruments can puncture the inner lining or damage the cooling unit.

Use only genuine U-Line replacement parts. Imitation parts can damage the unit, affect its operation or performance and may void the warranty.

4 Product Features

Échelon Model BI2115 Ice Maker

The BI2115 Ice Maker will produce and store up to 25 lbs (11.3 kg) of ice per day. It conserves on water, using only 2-3/4 gallons (10.4 L) to produce approximately 22 lbs (10 kg) of ice, and features a clear removable ice bucket.

Manual defrosting will be occasionally required.

Exclusive Features of Échelon

Self-closing door hinges engage when the door is open approximately 8-10 in. (20-25 cm), ensuring a positive door seal and preventing door bounce back.

Black and white models have vinyl clad steel cabinets that provide a rich textured look, and resist scratching, peeling, or flaking. They feature a slightly contoured, across the top, integrated door handle design that permits the door to be easily reversed. The door comes standard with a factory-installed flush panel, and will accommodate a 1/4 in. (0.66 cm) thick custom panel to achieve a custom, built-in look by matching surrounding cabinets.

All stainless steel models have a stainless steel full wrap cabinet, door, sculpted handle and hinges.

Stainless steel doors are not field reversible.

Stainless steel models are deemed suitable for outdoor use by UL.

An optional full overlay door panel kit for black and white units, using a customer provided 3/4 in. (1.9 cm) thick panel, is available that provides a fully integrated appearance with surrounding cabinets. Overlay panel is easily attached to the door.

Features and specifications are subject to change without notice.
