Solving common ice maker/dispenser problems

PROBLEM

Ice dispenser won’t work

Ice dispenser stops working

Off-taste or odor in ice

CAUSE

l Freezer door open

lIce bin not properly installed

l Wrong ice in bin

l Dispenser not used for extended periods, causing ice cubes to melt together

l Ice dispenser bar held in too long

l Ice attracts airborne odors; old ice

l Water quality

l Foods not properly wrapped

l Ice bin and freezer may need cleaning

l Plumbing to ice maker

lNew ice maker

SOLUTIONS

l Close the freezer door.

lMake sure bin is pushed in all the way.

l Use only crescents from ice maker. Shake the bin occasionally to keep cubes separated and to increase storage room.

lDump old ice and make a new supply.

l Wait about 3 minutes for the dispenser motor to reset.

l Large amounts of ice should be taken from the bin, not through the dispenser.

lDump old ice and make a new supply. Store excess ice in covered container.

l Water containing minerals (such as sulfur) may require a filter to remove.

l Good water quality is important for good ice quality. Try to avoid connecting the ice maker to a softened water supply. Water softener chemicals (such as salt from a malfunctioning softener) can damage the ice maker mold and lead to poor ice quality. If a softened water supply cannot be avoided, make sure the water softener is operating properly and well maintained.

l Wrap properly. See pages 24 and 25.

l Clean freezer and ice bin. See cleaning chart on pages 20 and 21.

l Follow Installation Instructions for proper ice maker water supply hook up. (See back of refrigerator cabinet.)

l The first few loads of ice from a new ice maker may have an off-taste. Dump ice and make a new supply.
