Questions and answers
Why my ice maker is not producing much ice I change filter but it still not producing much
After changing the filter, the ice maker may not be producing much ice because the water system needs to be flushed. Follow the instructions for flushing the water system after replacing the filter. Additionally, ensure the freezer control is set to a colder temperature if ice production is slow. If your model has a maximum ice production feature, activate it to increase ice output. Wait 24 hours after making any adjustments to see improvements.
