Does the ice maker mold have water in it or has no ice
been produced? Be sure your freezer has been connected to
a water supply and the supply shutoff valve is turned on. See
“Connect the Water Supply.”
Is an ice cube jammed in the ejector arm? Remove the ice
from the ejector arm with a plastic utensil. See “Ice Maker.”
Has a large amount of ice just been removed? Allow
24 hours for ice maker to produce more ice.
Is the control set correctly? If too little ice is produced, see
“Using the Control.”
NOTE: If not due to any of the above, there may be a problem
with the water line. Call for service.
Off-taste, odor or gray color in the ice (on some models)
Are the plumbing connections new, causing discolored or
off-flavored ice? Discard the first few batches of ice.
Have the ice cubes been stored too long? Throw old ice
away and make a new supply.
Do the freezer and ice bin need to be cleaned? See
“Freezer Care.”
Does the water contain minerals (such as sulfur)? A filter
may need to be installed to remove the minerals.
Temperature is too warm
Are the air vents blocked? Move objects away from the air
vents. See “Ensuring Proper Air Circulation” for air vent
locations.
Is the door opened often? Be aware that the freezer will
warm when this occurs. In order to keep the freezer cool, try
to get everything you need out of the freezer at once, keep
food organized so it is easy to find, and close the door as
soon as the food is removed.
Has a large amount of food just been added to the
freezer? Adding a large amount of food warms the freezer. It
can take several hours for the freezer to return to the normal
temperature.
Is the control set correctly for the surrounding conditions?
See “Using the Control.”
The door will not close completely or is difficult to open
Are food packages blocking the door? Rearrange
containers so that they fit more tightly and take up less space.
Are the shelves and basket out of position (on some
models)? Put the shelves and basket back into their correct
positions.
Are the gaskets dirty or sticky? Clean gaskets according to
the directions in “Freezer Care.”
Does the freezer wobble or seem unstable? See “Adjust
the Door.”
The freezer clicks but does not run
Has the local power failed? Unplug the freezer for
30 minutes to allow the refrigeration system to equalize.
During this time, keep the door closed whenever possible.
