-3-2 Icemaker not making ice or not making enough ice

(Icemaker Unit & Ice-detecting sensor Diagnosis)

▶

Icemaker Unit and Ice-detecting sensor Diagnosis

The icemaker unit and Ice-detecting sensor is programmed to be diagnosed.
Follow the procedure step by step to check to see if icemaker and Ice-detecting sensor is working normally.

STEP (Icemaker Unit Diagnosis)

Press the fill key for about 3sec. If the icemaker runs 2 stages of harvest and filling water step by step, It means icemaker’s
mechanism is normal.

※

Caution : Be sure that the ice tray is not filled with water before pressing fill key.
