COMMON SOLUTION
• Move any item or frozen ice cubes that may
block the signal arm from being in the off or
upward position. See Automatic Ice Maker-
Freezer section in manual.
• Remove ice container and discard ice. The ice
maker will produce fresh supply. Ice should be
used at least twice weekly to keep the cubes
separated.
• This generally occurs when the ice maker
does not get enough water. This is usually the
result of a clogged water filter or restricted
water supply. Replace the water filter and if the
condition still occurs check for a Saddle Valve,
water valve not turned on all the way or kinked
water supply line.
• Press and hold control lock for three seconds.
• See the "Ice maker is not making any ice"
section above.
• Be sure the refrigerator doors are completely
closed.
• The motor overload protector will reset in about
three minutes and then ice can be dispensed.
• Remove ice container, thaw, and empty the
contents. Clean container, wipe dry, and replace
in proper position. When new ice is made,
dispenser should operate.
• Remove ice cubes that are jamming the
dispenser.
• Press and hold control lock for three seconds.
• Remove and reinstall the water filter. Be sure
to push the filter firmly so that you hear it lock
solidly into position.
• Replace filter cartridge. Be sure to remove
protective caps and push the filter firmly so that
you hear it lock solidly into position.
• Open household water line valve. See CONCERN
