Concern
Ice maker is not
making enough ice.
Ice cubes are
freezing together.
Dispenser (Ice & Water)
Dispenser will not
dispense ice.
Potential Cause
• Ice maker is producing less
ice than expected.
• The water filter may be
clogged with foreign
material.
• The water supply line is
kinked.
• Water pressure is extremely
low. Cut-off and cut-on
pressures are too low
(well systems only).
• Reverse osmosis system
is in regenerative phase.
• Ice cubes are not being
used frequently enough
or interruption of power
for prolonged time.
• Ice cubes are hollow (shells
of ice with water inside). The
hollow cubes break open in
the bin and leak their water
onto existing ice, which
causes it to freeze together.
• There is no ice in the bin
to be dispensed.
• The refrigerator doors are
not completely closed.
• Dispenser paddle has
been pressed too long and
the dispenser motor has
overheated.
Common Solution
• The ice maker will produce
approximately 1 kg of ice
(fresh food ice maker)
every 24 hours depending
on usage conditions.
• If water dispenses slower
than normal, or if the filter
is six months old or older,
it should be replaced.
• Ensure that the supply line
does not kink when the
refrigerator is pushed into
place against the wall.
• Have someone turn up the
cut-off and cut-on pressure
on the water pump system
(well systems only).
• It is normal for a reverse
osmosis system to be
below 20 psi during the
regenerative phase.
• Remove ice container and
discard ice. The ice maker
will produce fresh supply.
Ice should be used at least
twice weekly to keep the
cubes separated.
• This generally occurs when
the ice maker does not get
enough water. This is usually
the result of a clogged water
filter or restricted water
supply. Replace the water
filter and if the condition still
occurs, check to see if the
water valve is not turned on
all the way or if there is a
kinked water supply line.
• See the "Ice maker is not
making any ice" section.
• Be sure the refrigerator
doors are completely closed.
• The motor overload
protector will reset in about
three minutes and then ice
can be dispensed.
