soap and warm water.

The ice maker is not producing ice or not enough ice

Check the following:

■

Is the ice maker wire shutoff arm or switch (depending on
models) in the OFF position?

■

Is the water line shutoff valve to the refrigerator turned on?

■

Is the freezer temperature cold enough to produce ice?
Wait 24 hours after ice maker hookup for ice production.

■

Has the ice maker just been installed? Wait 72 hours for full
ice production to begin.

■

Does the ice maker mold have water in it or has no ice
been produced? Make sure your refrigerator has been
connected to a water supply and the supply shutoff valve is
turned on.

■

Has a large amount of ice just been removed? Allow
24 hours for ice maker to produce more ice.

■

Is there a water filter installed on the refrigerator? The filter
may be clogged or installed incorrectly.

■

Is an ice cube jammed in the ice maker ejector arm?
For models with an interior ice bin, remove the ice from the
ejector arm with a plastic utensil. For models with an ice
storage bin located on the freezer door, access the ice maker
by depressing the ice sensor door on the upper left side of the
freezer interior. While depressing the sensor door, lift the ice
maker service door and remove the ice from the ejector with a
plastic utensil.

Off-taste, odor or gray color in the ice

Check the following:

■

Are the plumbing connections new, causing discolored or off-
flavored ice?

■

Have the ice cubes been stored too long?

■

Does the freezer and ice bin or bucket need to be cleaned?

■

Has food in the freezer or refrigerator been wrapped properly?

■

Does the water contain minerals (such as sulfur)? A filter
may need to be installed to remove the minerals.

dark discoloration in ice indicates that the water filtration
system needs additional flushing.

cubes produced by the current ice maker.

■

ice bucket? Dump the ice cubes and clean the ice storage
bin.

■

Is the ice dispenser stalling while dispensing “crushed”
ice? Change the ice button from “crushed” to “cubed.” If
cubed ice dispenses correctly, depress the button for
“crushed” ice and begin dispensing again.

■

Has the dispenser arm been held in too long? Ice will stop
dispensing when the arm is held in too long. Wait 3 minutes
for dispenser motor to reset before using again.

■

Has the water system not filled? The water system needs to
be filled the first time it is used.
