deposits accumulate on grid,
cubes will not fall freely.
Remedy

Use only Electrolux Ice Machine

b. Level unit for even water flow.
Uneven water flow will reduce ice
rate and cause water to spill in
ice bin.

a. Install stand pipe.
b. Replace valve.
c. Repair wiring defect.
Remedy
a. Set bin thermostat to the 10:00
position.
b. Insert bulb inside aluminum
sensor tube.
c. Replace bin thermostat.

to a lower setting. If cubes
release from grid and are too
thick, cubes might not make
contact with sensor tube
(inside of bin); therefore bin
thermostat would never be
satisfied.
