ICE & WATER
Problem
Possible Causes
Solutions
Icemaker is not
making ice.
Refrigerator was recently installed or
icemaker recently connected.
It may take up to 24 hours for each compartment to
reach the desired temperature and for the icemaker to
begin making ice.
Icemaker not turned on.
Locate the icemaker on/of button and confirm that
it is turned ON.
The refrigerator is not connected to
a water supply or the supply shutoff
valve is not turned on.
Connect refrigerator to the water supply and turn the
water shutoff valve fully open.
Icemaker shutoff
1. Dispenser icemaker optical sensor is
blocked by ice.
2. Freezer icemaker shutoff arm is
pushed all the way up by ice.
1. Remove enough ice from bin so that the optical
sensing space is not blocked.
2. Remove enough ice from bin to allow shutoff arm to
lower from shutoff position.
Not dispensing water.
New installation or water line recently
connected.
Dispense 2.5 gallons of water (flush for approximately
5 minutes) to remove trapped air and contaminates
from the system. Do not dispense the entire 2.5
gallon amount continuously. Depress and release the
dispenser pad for cycles of 30 seconds ON and 60
seconds OFF.
The dispenser panel is locked.
Press and hold the Lock button for three seconds to
unlock the control panel and dispenser.
The dispenser is not set for water
dispensing.
On the control panel press the Water button.
Refrigerator or freezer doors are not
closed properly.
Water will not dispense if any of the refrigerator
doors are left open.
Water filter has been recently
removed or replaced.
After the water filter is replaced, dispense 2.5 gallons
of water (flush for approximately 5 minutes) to remove
trapped air and contaminates from the system. Do not
dispense the entire 2.5 gallon amount continuously.
Depress and release the dispenser pad for cycles of
30 seconds ON and 60 seconds OFF.
Tubing connecting refrigerator to
house supply valve is kinked.
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
and arrange it to prevent future kinks.
The house water supply is not
connected, the valve is not turned on
fully, or the valve is clogged.
Connect refrigerator to the water supply and turn the
water shutoff valve fully open.
If the problem persists, it may be necessary to contact
a plumber.
