What Er01
actually means.

Once ice making starts, the evaporator should drop well below freezing. If it is still at 32°F or above after 30 minutes, the control blinks ICE, NO WATER and DRAIN together and records Er01. U-Line's service steps include a refrigerant leak check and a sensor check, so this is a sealed-system question.

What to do when Er01 shows on the ice machine

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from U-Line's own guidance for Er01 on its ice machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Turn the machine off and check that the condenser grille at the front is not blocked.

02

Make sure the room is within the range the guide allows for the model.

03

Book a visit; U-Line asks for power to be restored only after the cooling problem is solved, and a leak check on R-290 is a technician's job.

What not to do

Er01 is the 30-minute check; Er03, with only the ICE lamp blinking, is a similar warm-evaporator check made at 10 minutes. All three lamps lit steady, not blinking, is Er25, the opposite problem of an evaporator that got too cold.

Questions
about Er01.

Can I clear Er01 myself?
Turn the machine off and check that the condenser grille at the front is not blocked. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Does Er01 on my U-Line nugget machine mean a leak?
It can. A leak check is on U-Line's list for this pattern, along with the sensor and its mounting.
Can I clear Er01 by unplugging the U-Line?
Power can be cut and restored, but U-Line asks for the cooling problem to be fixed first, so the pattern will return if nothing changed.
What if I smell gas near a U-Line with all lamps blinking?
Leave switches and flames alone, open windows, step out and book a visit; call 911 if the smell is strong. These machines run on a flammable refrigerant.

Still showing Er01?

A booking with a code goes further when it carries the light or code copied as it appeared, the model and serial off the data plate, and a word on whether cubes still fall into the bin. With those three in hand, our office can match the probable part to your machine the same afternoon.
