arm, make sure that the arm moves freely. If your
icemaker is equipped with the electronic ice shutoff
sensor, make sure that there is a clear path between
the two sensors.
Reverse osmosis filtration systems can reduce
the water pressure below the minimum amount
and result in icemaker issues. (Refer to the Water
Pressure section.)
Dispense 2.5 gallons of water (flush for
approximately 5 minutes) to remove trapped air and
contaminates from the system. Do not dispense the

amount continuously. Depress and release the
dispenser pad for cycles of 30 seconds ON and 60
seconds OFF.
The tubing can kink when the refrigerator is moved
during installation or cleaning resulting in reduced
water flow. Straighten or repair the water supply line
