Problems with the ice/water dispenser

Issue

Possible fault

Solution

The ice cubes are
small.

Other domestic appliances
that use water are in
operation.

Avoid using such items as a
dishwasher, washing
machine or shower at the
same time.

Check whether the water
filter needs changing.

See "Water filter" for more
information.

Check the water pressure.
The water pressure must be
between 25 and 120 psi
(1.72-8.25 bar).

Consult a plumber.

Check whether the correct
water valve has been
installed.

Self-tapping valves and

"

(4.76 mm) saddle valves
reduce the water pressure
and can block the pipe.

The Ice/Water has
an unpleasant
odor/flavor.

When ice is stored for an
extended period it may
absorb odors, which affects
the taste.

Use the ice maker more
frequently.

Check if the ice cube
container is dirty.

Clean the container.

Unsealed packages in the
freezer will transfer
odor/flavor particles to the
ice cubes.

Check that food has been
packed in airtight
containers.

The Ice/Water
dispenser is not
producing ice or
water.

The Safety Lock is activated. See "Ice/Water Dispenser -

Safety Lock".
