• Ice storage bin needs to be emptied and washed.
• Unsealed packages in fresh food and/or freezer compartments may
be transmitting odor/taste to ice cubes.
• Interior of refrigerator needs cleaning. See Care and Cleaning.
• Water filter clogged. Replace the filter or use the filter bypass plug.
• Door may have been left open.
• Turn temperature of freezer compartment colder.
See Temperature Controls.
• Icemaker or water supply turned off. Turn on icemaker or water supply.
• Ice cubes are frozen to the icemaker feeler arm. Remove the cubes.
• Irregular clumps in the storage bin. Break up with fingertip pressure
and discard remaining clumps. The freezer may be too warm. Adjust
the freezer temperature control colder one step at a time until clumps
do not form.
