BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE

(CONT.)

Problem

Possible Causes

Solutions

Sound of water
trickling.

• The icemaker is being

supplied with water.

• This sound is normally made when the icemaker

is supplied with water after dropping the
automatically made ice.

• If this sound lasts more than 10 seconds, check

for a leak.

The icemaker is
not producing ice
or not enough ice

• New installation.

• Refrigerator is not connected

to a water supply and the
supply shutoff valve is not
turned on.

• Reverse osmosis water

filtration system is connected
to your cold water supply.

• Kink in the water source line.

• Large amount of ice recently

has been removed.

• The icemaker is not turned

on.

• There is something on the

Ice-detecting sensor.

• The temperature setting is

too warm on freezer.

• The doors are opened often.

• Any door is not closing

properly.

• The ice compartment door is

not closing properly.

• Frequently dispensing ice.

• Wait 24 hours after ice maker installation for ice

production to begin. Wait 72 hours for full ice
production.

• Connect refrigerator to water supply and turn

water shutoff valve fully open.

• This can decrease water pressure and a little

water comes to icemaker.

• A kink in the line can reduce water flow.

Straighten the water source line.

• Allow 24 hours for ice maker to produce more ice.

• On the icemaker itself, there should be a power

switch. It may have an “I” and “O” on it. The “I”
position is on. If it is off, please flip it to the on
position.

• Foreign substance or frost on the Ice-detecting

sensor stops making ices. To keep making ice,
clean up the surface of Ice-detecting sensor with
clean and soft fabric.

• Below 0°F is recommended temperature setting of

the freezer compartment for normal ice
production. If the freezer temperature is set at a
warmer temperature, then the ice will produce at a
slower rate.

• If the doors of the unit are opened often, the cold

air will escape which will prevent the unit from
maintaining the set temperature. Lowering the
temperature can help, as well as not opening the
doors as frequently.

• The door that is not closed properly, makes the

Freezer temperature high and icemaker will make
ices slowly.

• The compartment door, that is not closed properly,

make the compartment temperature high and
icemaker makes ices slowly.

• Use ‘ICE PLUS’ function.
