Solutions
Rearrange items with high water content away from air
vents.
If the temperature is too cold, adjust the control one
increment at a time and wait for the temperature to
stabilize. Refer to the Setting the Controls section for
more information.
When the refrigerator is operated in temperature
below 41°F (5°C), food can freeze in the refrigerator
compartment. The refrigerator should not be operated in
temperature below 55°F (13°C).
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. Increased moisture will lead to frost and
condensation. To lessen the effect, reduce the frequency
and duration of door openings.
Refer to the Doors will not close correctly or pop open
section in the Troubleshooting section.
If the temperature is too cold, adjust the control one
increment at a time and wait for the temperature to
stabilize. Refer to the Setting the Controls section for
more information.
This is normal for food items with a high water content.
Do not store food items with high water content in the
freezer for a long period of time.
Both icemakers together will produce approximately 120 -
292 cubes in a 24 hour period.
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.
It is recommended that you replace the water filter:
• Approximately every six months.
• When the water filter indicator turns on.
• When the water dispenser output decreases.
• When the ice cubes are smaller than normal.
The water pressure must be between 20 and 120 psi on
models without a water filter and between 40 and 120 psi
on models with a water filter.
If the problem persists, it may be necessary to contact a
plumber or install a booster pump to compensate for the
low pressure.
Reverse osmosis filtration systems can reduce the water
pressure below the minimum amount and result in
icemaker issues. (Refer to Water Pressure section.)
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.
