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.
Model EI151M55GS can be installed using a gravity
drain or the Electrolux EIMP60, optional drain
pump kit.
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.

1 Locate the compression fitting and ferrule
packed in the unit. Slide the compression
fitting and ferrule over the 1/4 inch water
supply line. Do not use thread sealing
compound or tape. Using two wrenches,
tighten the compression fitting on the supply
line (see Figure 6).
2 Carefully bend the water supply line into
position and connect the line to the solenoid
valve• Avoid kinking the water supply line.
3 For recessed installations, allow extra water
supply line length to provide slack for easy
removal from the recessed area (see Figure
8). This will also safeguard against kinking
the line.

Leveling
Leveling the unit
1 Use a level to check the levelness of the ice
maker from front to back and from side to
side (see Figure 10).
Figure 10
If the ice maker is not level, adjust the feet
on the corners of the unit as necessary (see
Figure 11).
Figure 11
Check the levelness after each adjustment
and repeat the previous steps until the unit is
level.

Your Electrolux product has been designed for
either free-standing or built-in installation. When
built-in, your ice maker does not require additional
air space for top, sides or rear. However, the front

Normal Operating Sounds
All models incorporate rigid foam insulated
cabinets to provide high thermal efficiency and
components,maximum souInndreducspite oftithison foritechnology,t's interna lyourworkingmodel
may make sounds that are unfamiliar.
nitia Start-Up
Once installation and leveling is complete, the unit
is ready for initial start-up and operation. All units
are shipped with controls that are preset. No initial
adjustments are required.
Plug into a 115 volt polarized and grounded
electrical outlet.
Open the water supply valve at the main water
source.
To turn the unit on or off, touch and hold
the POWER button on the display panel for
approximately five seconds, then release.
A small LED above the icon will illuminate to
confirm the touch of any controller icon.
The electronic display will show "ICE" when
the unit is on, and "OFF" when the unit is off.
Turning the unit off will override any other
control function.
Normal operating sounds may be more noticeable
because of the unit's environment. Hard surfaces
such as cabinets, wood/vinyl/tiled floors and
paneled walls have a tendency to reflect normal
operating noises.
Common refrigeration components and a brief
description of the normal operating sounds they
make are listed below. NOTE: Your unit may not
contain all the components listed.
Compressor: The compressor makes a hum
or pulsing sound that may be heard when it
operates
Evaporator: Refrigerant flowing through an
evaporator may sound like boiling liquid.
Condenser Fan: Air moving through a
condenser may be heard.
Automatic Ice Maker: You will hear ice as it
drops from the mold into the ice bin/tray.
Water Valve: The water valve will make an
occasional buzzing sound and running water
will be heard.

Your Electrolux ice maker uses advanced
technology to make ice that is crystal clear. This
technology cascades a flow of water over a chilled
ice mold that is mounted vertically so no water sits
in it. Because of this ice making technology, clear
ice cubes differ significantly from regular ice cubes.
Differences are illustrated in Figure 25.

Dimples: Electrolux clear ice cubes have

Cube Variations: Cubes made from different
batches, or even cubes within the same

process.

Exterior Cleaning - As Required
The door, grille and cabinet may be cleaned with a
mild detergent and warm water solution. Do not use
solvent based or abrasive cleaners.
Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe
with a soft, clean towel to prevent water spotting.
Stainless Steel Models
Stainless steel models may discolor when
exposed to chlorine gas, pool chemicals, salt
water or cleaners with bleach.
Interior Cleaning - As Required
1 Disconnect power to the ice maker.
2 Open the door and remove any ice from the
storage bin.
3 Wipe down the interior and storage bin with
a solution of non-abrasive mild soap or
detergent and warm water. Rinse with clean
water.
4 Sanitize the bin with a solution of 1
tablespoon of bleach in 1 gallon of warm
water. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.
5 Check that all drain connections are in place.
Keep your stainless unit looking new by
cleaning with a high quality, all-in-one
stainless steel cleaner/polish on a monthly
basis. Frequent cleaning will remove surface
contamination that could lead to rust. Some
installations will require cleaning on a weekly
basis.
DO NOT CLEAN WITH STEEL WOOL PADS.
DO NOT USE CLEANERS THAT ARE
NOT SPECIFICALLY INTENDED FOR
STAINLESS STEEL (this includes glass, tile
and counter cleansers).
6 Reconnect to the unit.
Maintenance
Condenser Cleaning m Every
3 Months
To maintain operational efficiency, clean the
condenser every three months (depending on
environmental conditions, more or less frequent
cleaning may be necessary).
%# Cleaning -- Every 6 Months
To maintain operational efficiency, clean the unit
every six months (depending on water conditions
more or less frequent cleaning may be necessary).
If the ice maker requires more frequent cleaning,
consult a qualified plumber to test the water quality
and recommend appropriate treatment.
To remove and replace the grille for access to the
condenser fins follow this procedure (see Figure
29):
1 Remove the screws at each end of the grille.
2 Remove the grille.

Maintenance / Storage, Vacation and Moving
nlet Screen Cleaning
The solenoid valve inlet screen must be cleaned at
least once each year as follows:
1 Shut off the water at the water supply valve.
2 Pull the unit out to access the back panel.
3 Disconnect electrical power to the unit.
4 Disconnect the entire hose connector from
the water solenoid valve (see Figure 33).
5 Use a tooth brush to clean sediment from the
inlet screen. DO NOT remove the screen.
6 Re-connect the water supply line to the water
solenoid valve. Tighten connector securely.
Open the water supply valve and check for
leakage at the water connection. Make sure
the water supply line is not kinked.
7 Reconnect power to the unit before re-
installing.
8 Make sure the drain system is working
properly and the drain hose is not pinched or
kinked. Pour one gallon of coo[, fresh water
Draining for nOnouse
If the unit is to be stored, moved or not used for
extended periods, it will be necessary to drain the
system of water.
1 Disconnect power from the unit.
2 Remove ice from the storage bin.
3 Shut off water supply at the main water
source.
4 Disconnect the inlet and outlet lines to the
water valve and allow them to drain.
