The ice maker has a funny smell or the ice
that is being produced has an unappealing
taste.
The "add water" light is on even though the
machine is full of water.
Ice maker freezes one big block of ice
instead of individual cubes.
The unit is leaking.
The evaporator coils are not freezing/The
evaporator coils are not releasing the ice/Only
half of the evaporator coils are freezing.
Clean the machine out with a mild soapy
solution and a soft cloth
Add a tablespoon of vinegar to the water in the
reservoir and then run a few batches of
ice. After removing the vinegar ice and water,
run a few more cycles with regular water.
Remove this water and ice. The machine
should then be free of a bad smell and you
should be able to produce better tasting ice.
Your water may not have enough impurities
(distilled, reverse osmosis [RO], purified, etc.)
in it. Add a pinch of salt to the distilled water.
This will add impurities to the water which will
allow the machine to detect the water.
The water uptake filter may be clogged (at the
bottom of the lower water reservoir). Using a
flathead screwdriver to pry it out, clean the filter
and replace.
If the ambient temperature in the room is less
than 60 degrees, use only the small and
medium ice cube size settings.
If the ambient temperature in the room is
normal, the compressor may be faulty. Contact
EdgeStar support
If there is a steady drip coming from the
machine, the drain plug may be loose or a
hose may have been damaged. If the drain
plug is securely attached, contact EdgeStar
support
If the machine is leaking when water is poured
into the lower water reservoir, a hose may have
become dislodged. Contact EdgeStar support.
