Craft Ice
Ice
Refrigerator or
Freezer section is too
warm.
The air vents are blocked. Cold air circulates from the freezer to the fresh food section
and back again through air vents in the wall dividing the two sections.
• Locate air vents by using your hand to sense airflow and move all packages that block
vents and restrict airflow. Rearrange items to allow air to flow throughout the
compartment.
Doors are opened often or for long periods of time.
• When the doors are opened often or for long periods of time, warm, humid air enters the
compartment. This raises the temperature and moisture level within the compartment. To
lessen the effect, reduce the frequency and duration of door openings.
Unit is installed in a hot location.
• The refrigerator should not be operated in temperatures above 110 °F (43 °C).
A large amount of food or hot food was added to either compartment.
• Adding food warms the compartment requiring the cooling system to run. Allowing hot
food to cool to room temperature before putting it in the refrigerator will reduce this
effect.
Doors are not closed correctly.
• See the "Doors will not close correctly or pop open" section in the Troubleshooting.
Temperature control is not set correctly.
• If the temperature is too warm, adjust the control one increment at a time and wait for the
temperature to stabilize.
Defrost cycle has recently completed.
• During the defrost cycle, the temperature of each compartment may rise slightly and
condensation may form on the back wall. Wait 30 minutes and confirm the proper
temperature has been restored once the defrost cycle has completed.
Problem
Possible Cause & Solution
Icemaker is not
making ice.
Refrigerator was recently installed or icemaker recently connected.
• The icemaker begins producing ice approximately 48 hours after the appliance is initially
installed. The first batches of ice may not be round and clear.
Icemaker is not
making enough ice.
In 3 ICE mode, the Craft Ice icemaker produces 1 batch of round ice about every 24
hours.
• For more ice, select the 6 ICE mode which produces 2 batches every 24 hours.
Problem
Possible Cause & Solution
Icemaker is not
making enough ice.
Demand exceeds ice production capacity.
• Refer to the Automatic Icemaker section for ice production capacity to check the amount
of ice produced in a 24 hour period.
House water supply is not connected, valve is not turned on fully, or valve is clogged.
• Connect the refrigerator to a cold water supply with adequate pressure and turn the water
shutoff valve fully open. If the problem persists, it may be necessary to contact a plumber.
