Problem

Possible Causes

Solutions

NOT DISPENSING 

ICE

• The ice dispenser is stalling while 

dispensing “crushed” ice.

• Ice maker power switch in the OFF 

(O) position.

• Water supply turned off or not 

connected. 

• Change the ice button from “crushed” to “cubed”. If 

cubed ice dispenses correctly, depress the button 

for“crushed” ice and begin dispensing again.

• Move the switch to the ON (I) position.

• See the “Connecting the Water Line” section.

NOT DISPENSING 

WATER

• The dispenser display is locked.

• New installation.

• Refrigerator or freezer doors are not 

closed properly.

• Water supply turned off or not 

connected.

• The water pressure is less than 40 

PSI (0,27 MPa).

• Home filter or reverse osmosis 

system is used.

• The dispenser is not set for water 

dispensing.

• Press and hold the Lock button for 3 seconds to 

unlock the control panel and dispenser.

• Flush and fill the water system.

• Water will not dispense if any of the refrigerator 

doors are left open.

• See the 

“Connecting the Water Line”

 section.

• The water pressure to the home affects the flow 

from the dispenser.

• This can decrease water pressure. It is 

recommended not to connect the supply line to 

a reverse osmosis system for optimal operation.

• The dispenser can be set for ice or water. Make 

certain that the control panel is set for the proper 

operation. Press the dispenser button on the 

control panel to cycle through the ice and water 

options.
