Self-Cleaning Cycle Instructions

To maintain operational efficiency, clean 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. Use only U-Line Ice Machine
Cleaner (P/N 41978).
Use only Electrolux ice machine cleaner EIM41978. Use only U-Line Ice Machine Cleaner (P/N 41978). It is
a violation of federal law to use this solution in a
manner inconsistent with its labeling. Use of any
other cleaner can ruin the finish of the evaporator
and will void the warranty. Read and understand all
labels printed on the package before use. Ice
machine cleaner is used to remove lime scale and
other mineral deposits. Refer to the following steps
for mineral deposit removal.
1. Remove all ice from the storage bin.
2. Remove inside front cover by gently pulling away from
sidewall (Figure 19).
3. Remove the overflow tube by lifting it up while using a
slight back and forth motion to loosen it from the drain
hole (Figure 20). The water in the reservoir will flow
down the drain.

approximately three minutes, add one packet of U-Line
Ice Machine Cleaner to the reservoir.
7. Reinstall inside front cover.
8. When the self-cleaning process stops, approximately 45
minutes, it may be desirable to clean the storage bin.
See Interior Storage Bin Cleaning.
9. After one hour the display will change from "CL" back
to showing "ICE." At this time the unit will
automatically begin normal operation.
