The Problem Solver
POSSIBLE CAUSE
• Refrigerator not level. Adjust leveling legs or call the
installer. When cabinet is level, doors will close gently
and securely.
• Door may have been left ajar or package holding door open.
• Too frequent or too long door openings.
• Frost within package is normal.
• Icemaker feeler arm in STOP (up) position.
• Water supply turned off or not connected.
• Freezer compartment too warm.
• Cubes too small—water shutoff valve connecting refrigerator
to home water line may be clogged.
• Sometimes cubes fuse to the side of the ice mold and hold
the feeler arm in the STOP (up) position. Remove this ice
to restart the icemaker.
• When reaching for cubes by hand, you may have pushed the
feeler arm into the STOP (up) position by mistake.
• Piled up cubes in storage bin may cause icemaker to shut
off prematurely. With icemaker feeler arm in STOP (up)
position, level cubes in bin by hand.
• Door may have been left open.
• Turn temperature of freezer compartment colder.
• Old cubes need to be discarded.
• Ice storage bin needs to be emptied and washed.
• Unsealed packages in refrigerator and/or freezer
compartments may be transmitting odor/taste to ice cubes.
• Interior of refrigerator needs cleaning.
• Poor-tasting incoming water. Install a water filter.
• No ice cubes. Remove storage bin. If cubes are frozen to wire
arm, remove cubes.
• No ice cubes. Icemaker turned off or water supply
turned off.
• Irregular ice clumps in storage container. Break up as
many as you can with fingertip pressure and discard the
remaining clumps.
• If water dispenser has not been used for an extended
period, dispense water in regular manner until all water in
reservoir is replenished with fresh water.
• Poor-tasting incoming water. Install a water filter. See the
Water Filter Accessory section.
• Allow about 24 hours for water to cool to proper
temperature after refrigerator is first installed.
• If water dispenser has not been used for extended
period, water in the first glass will not be as cool as
in succeeding glasses.
• If water reservoir has been drained, allow several hours
for replenished supply to chill.
