SOLUTIONS
If the air vent located in the top, left, rear corner of the
refrigerator compartment is blocked by items placed directly
in front of it, the refrigerator will get too cold. Move items
away from the air vent.
Adjust the controls a setting warmer. Check the temperature
in 24 hours. See "Using the Control(s)."
Make sure the ice storage bin is positioned so that it is not
blocking airflow.
Adjust the control setting. See "Refrigerator Features."
A humid environment contributes to moisture buildup.
Allows humid air to enter the refrigerator. Minimize door
openings and close doors completely.
Move food packages away from door.
Push bin or shelf back into the correct position.
This adds humidity to the refrigerator interior. Keep all
containers tightly covered.
Minimize door openings and keep doors fully closed.
Ensure door seals are making full contact with the refrigerator
cabinet to allow for an adequate seal.
See "Using the Controls" for recommended temperature
settings.
SOLUTIONS
Connect refrigerator to water supply and turn water shutoff
valve fully open.
A kink in the line can reduce water flow. Straighten the water
source line.
Make sure the ice maker is on.
Wait 24 hours after ice maker installation for ice production to
begin. Wait 3 days for full ice production.
Close the door firmly. If it does not close completely, see "The
doors will not close completely."
Allow 24 hours for ice maker to produce more ice.
Remove ice from the ejector arm with a plastic utensil.
NOTE: On some models, press the lever which opens the ice
maker door to access the ejector arm.
This can decrease water pressure. See "Water Supply
