Water Distribution Tube Cleaning

When you find that the ice cubes are incompletely formed or the output of ice cubes is low, the water distribution tube may be blocked. Set the power switch to OFF. Unscrew the four screws holding the top panel and remove the panel. You will see the water distribution tube. Rotate the water distribution tube so that the holes in it are facing up. Using a toothpick or similar tool, dredge the holes, then rotate the water distribution tube back to its original position. If the tube is badly blocked, clean it as follows:

1.Shut off the water and power supplies.

2.Disconnect the water hose from the distribution tube.

3.Lift one side, remove the distribution tube.

4.With a brush, clean the tube with a dilute solution of warm water and a mild detergent such as dishwashing liquid. After removing the dirt and lint from the surface, rinse the tube with clean water.

5.Replace the distribution tube.

6.Reconnect the water supply and power supply lines.
