2. Room temperature is too
warm.
Move the unit to an area where temperature is below 90
degrees F.
Ice level is too high.
1. The ice maker is not level.
Use a level to check the unit for level from side to side
and front to rear.
2. Room temperature is too
warm.
Move the unit to an area where temperature is below 90
degrees F.
3. Ice deflector is not in place
or secured properly.
Check to see that the ice deflector is in place and secured
below the grid-cutter.
4. Bin level sensing tube
needs adjusting.
You can adjust the bin level sensing tube by simply
pressing directly down on the tube 5 inches from the
front of the tube to get a desired bin level.
Ice level is too low.
1. The ice maker is not level.
Use a level to check the unit for level from side to side
and front to rear.
2. Room temperature is too
cold.
Move the unit to an area where temperature is above 55
degrees F.

“ON” position.
Water keeps backing
up into the ice bin
(gravity drain).
1. Inadequate drain system.
Restriction or improperly installed drain lines will cause
water to back up into the ice bin. Make certain there are
no kinks or restrictions in the drain lines. If necessary,
consult a qualified plumber.
2. Foreign material in ice bin
drain.
Foreign material is restricting or blocking the ice bin
drain located at the right rear corner of the ice bin. The
drain will need to be cleared.

or restricted.
Check inlet, discharge, and vent line tubing for any kinks
or restrictions and repair as necessary.
2. Inlet screen to the drain
pump is restricted or blocked.

maker are not level.
Check and level, if necessary, the drain pump as well as
the ice maker.
The drain pump
cycles on and off
erratically.
1. Vent line to the drain pump
is restricted or kinked.
Check the vent line for any restrictions or kinks and repair
as necessary.
2. Discharge line is restricted
or kinked.
Check the discharge line and connection to the desired
drain for any restrictions or kinks and repair as necessary.
