ICE AND WATER
Possible Causes and/or
Recommended Solutions
Ice maker is not
•
producing ice,
not producing
enough ice,
•
or producing
small/hollow ice
Refrigerator
is not connected
to a water
supply, or the water
supply
shutoff valve
is not fully
turned
on - Connect
the refrigerator
to a water
supply
and make
sure the water
shutoff
valve
is
fully
open.
Kink in the water source line - A kink in the water line can reduce water flow, resulting in decreased ice
production,
small ice cubes, and/or
hollow or irregularly-shaped
ice. Straighten the water line.
Ice maker
is not turned on - Turn on the ice maker.
See "Ice Maker
and Storage
Bin."
New
installation
- After
connecting
the refrigerator
to a water

(See "Water
and Ice Dispensers.")
Wait
24 hours for ice production
to begin.
Wait
72 hours for full
ice production.
Discard
the first
three batches
of ice produced.
Refrigerator
door
is not closed completely
- Close the door firmly.
If it does not close
completely,
see
"The doors
will not close completely."
A water filter is installed on the refrigerator
- Remove the water filter and operate the ice maker. If ice
volume improves, then the filter may be clogged or incorrectly
installed. Replace filter or install it
correctly.
Large amount of ice was recently removed - Allow sufficient time for the ice maker to produce
more ice.
•
Ice is jammed in the ice maker ejector arm - Remove ice from the ejector arm using a plastic utensil.
•
Inadequate
water pressure - Verify that the household has adequate
water pressure. See "Water
Supply Requirements."
•
Water
filter is installed incorrectly - Make sure the filter is properly installed. See "Water
Filtration
System."
•
A reverse osmosis water filtration
system is connected to your cold water supply - This can decrease
water pressure. See "Water
Supply Requirements."
NOTE: If questions remain regarding water pressure, contact a licensed, qualified
plumber.
