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.

Drain Installation
INSTALLING THE DRAIN
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.

1Make certain the unit is not plugged into an electrical
outlet.
2Carefully push the power cord grommet through the hole
in the back panel. See Figure 2.
3Remove 12 screws and back panel.
4Check 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)
5Place a suitable container beneath the pump’s discharge
tube. (Container must be able to hold a
minimum of one gallon of water.)
6Plug the ice maker power cord into a properly grounded, polarized electrical
outlet.
7Verify 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.
8At this time, verify that all tube and clamp connections are tight and leak free.
9Unplug unit power cord from electrical outlet.
10 Reinstall back panel.
11 Continue to the next step in the installation process, Site Preparation.

10 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.

Site Preparation
PREPARING THE SITE
1Position 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.
2The surrounding air temperature must be at least 50°F (10°C) but must not
exceed 110°F (43°C).
3The unit must not be located near heat-generating equipment or in direct
sunlight.
4The unit must be located to allow clearance for water, drain and electrical
connections in the rear of the ice maker.
5Connect the unit to a grounded and polarized 115 VAC, 60 Hz, 15 A circuit
(normal household current).
6Avoid 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.
7The unit must be installed according to your local codes and ordinances.

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.
