■Ice maker is not turned on - Make sure the ice maker wire shutoff arm or switch (depending on model) is in the ON position.

■New installation - Wait 24 hours after ice maker installation for ice production to begin. Wait 3 days for full ice production.

■Large amount of ice recently removed - Allow sufficient time for ice maker to produce more ice.

■Ice cube jammed in the ice maker ejector arm - Remove ice from the ejector arm with a plastic utensil.

■A reverse osmosis water filtration system connected to your cold water supply can decrease water pressure - See “Water Supply Requirements.”

The ice cubes are hollow or small (on some models)
